New Gaui X5 – a New 30 Sized heli TrexMad – Latest News


GAUI X5 will be the final name for this newest 3D flying bird ! Which will available in the early of June. GAUI X5 is a brand new design 500 size helicopter by GAUI. It included with SCORPION 1820w/kv910 BL motor originally which is ready for hard 3D flight!


This heli is used with a pair of 500mm main blades with flybar rod. It runs with tourque rube for the tail system which can reduce the friction so more power will be provided during the flying time.
Moreover there is a new designed canopy with four points mounting. It can reduce the most vibration occurred during the flying time thus the heli will be more stable .

1. Newly designed Main Rotor Head and Swashplate which produce quick control response and the best stability.
2. Kit comes with SCORPION 910KV(1820W) BL Motor / GAUI 100A ESC / 500mm CF Main Blades which provide
the best power efficiency and the best power to weight ratio of all EP helicopters.
3. New layout for Direct-Drive CCPM servos which results in a precisely control to Swashplate.
4. CF main frame combine with integrated CNC servo / motor mounts result in a high rigidity frame cage to withstand
the ultimate power output.
5. Equipped with heavy-duty torque tube driven tail.

Nope not even near - X5 Kit-Motor-ESC £370ish from what I can find out

No offence,but lets hope it's a lot better then the hurricane 550- had to spend quite a bit of money on mine to get it to fly right,,, main gear was too easy to strip and the general fit of parts left a lot to be desired,,,,, At least parts were cheap though !!

Wonder how it will fare against Align's soon to be released 550E ???????

...so is this model £679 and not £370ish?

Yeah, £370 ish is probably the cost price!!! Paid £505 for mine, nobody stocks them in the UK, cannot seem to find a stockist of 255 parts either??????. Waiting for the VAT and duty invoice which will probably bring it to £620, according to the duty calculator.

G.

I take it that is the cost for kit and motor?? Very expensive kit in my opinion. Think I will give it a miss

The pricing I'm going by is from HERE

So was wondering if this is the final price..

Got my X5 finished and flown last week. It me £90 more to get in the air than my Trex 500, but in my opinion its worth every penny.
Its very agile and at the same time has a very locked in feel.

I'm running it stock with the Scorpion motor and ESC that came in the kit.
I'm running it on £27 Savox SC0254 servos butr it really does fly well, will try to get some video on after the weekend.
