  • Who currently makes gasser heli's?

    Apart from the Century Predator can anyone help with any other manufacturers who currently make gasser heli's, i.e. ones that run on pump fuel not nitro?

            So any recommendations, I was thinking of the Century until someone more knowledgeable than myself on these things said they didn't rate Century heli's, not sure why but possibly because he fly's T Rex's.

              If someone is telling you not to get something then ask them " Why ?" thats alway smy opinion .. Dont go on what somones heard from a second cousin of a mother of a son of the friend who knew someone that had one 30 years go .. I know someone with a Century Gasser and he loves the thing ...Only downside is they aint cheap and you also have to rering the engine after soo many hours usage ...But the flight times are mental on em ... You can always annoy the plane flies by being in the air for half an hour at a time with one of those lmao ....

                    The ones I usually see recommended on Helifreak are the MA Spectra G, followed by the Century Predator.

                    Bergen machines are very well respected, but I think generally somewhat more expensive than these two.

                      I went on the Bergen site but there are no prices listed, don't tell me if you have to ask you can't afford, but I couldn't see a distributor list either to find a UK stockist, anyone know who sells these? I have tried a Google search but nothing readily sprang up.
                      They may be out of my price range but it would be nice to do a comparision before making any rash decisions. Better to spend once wisely than twice follishly as they say.
                      Thanks for all your replies, completely new area for me but if I'm going up from a T Rex 600 I don't really want another nitro as the rate the bigger ones use fuel is silly.
