Hi Stuart,

Its always a good idea to have a sacrificial lamb in the fleet to learn new tricks on.

My philosophy was to have a sacrifical heli, and thought oh well if I crash that, Im going to need a backup for it, so Ive ended up with a sacrificial backup too :lol:

I hope all goes well with the assembly, your list of kit is good and shoulddo just fine.

You will also like those SAB blades, I got a set for the first time a couple of months ago, before which Ive had both MS and Razors, I much prefer the SAB's as the auto performace is much better than any 600 blade I have flown before.

Cheers,

Pete.

I'd rather pay 150.00 to fix the R30 than 300.00 to fix the Fury thats for sure.

. Believe me it will need fixing

It would seem so

, I'm all set for when it arrives it will be like a trip down memory lane building a Raptor again quite looking forward to it.

My new glow extension (+ missing engine bolts and washers) arrived this morning so the V2 can be running once again.

Skyline miss addressed the envelope. They put 137 instead of 173. 8O My nice neighbours pushed it through my door though. :lol:

How are you guys getting on with your rappies?

Hi guys,

How are you getting on with your rappies?

Have you had a chance to fly them yet?

Cheers,

Pete.

Mine is still stuck in the christmas post

**Raptorite** · 29-12-2003, 03:55 PM

Doh

I hope it arrives soon.

Cheers,

Pete.

**Stuart** · 29-12-2003, 11:55 PM

Me too

MP2 re-attached and had another 3 tanks through it. It's still a little rich but the cold weather means its not too far out. The top bolt keeps working loose due to stripping the thread on the pipe. I just need to find the right tightness to keep it in place. :?

Has that V2 not arrived yet then? Crikey!

Phil.

Still not here, I got a xmas card yesterday that was posted on the 18th Dec, so its not surprising that its taking so long.

**Stuart** · 06-01-2004, 11:07 PM

Yippee

Hi
thing is Once a Raptor appears on ebay even with all the bling on
them you will never get that money back. Even 2nd hand bling
doesnt really mean a lot.

You will Never make the money back it cost you. guy at our club
has more raptor bling than anything and would cost around 1000 pounds
to kit a Raptor out like that but in the end if he got 400-500 pounds
for it he'd be lucky. He has a 50 and 60 Raptors as well, although
not seen the 60 yet.....

Only 4 ugrades I will do to my Raptor once I have my new Tranny
and they are Header Tank, Tail push rod kit, 1-2 digi servos and
maybe some carbon blades.
