New OS MEGA Hyper .50

[Toolman]

Hi BobJ

I have tried 1.04c now and I did feel that the collective response seemed slightly crisper on 1.04b, but then I know some people said it was too game like.
Auto wise I think 1.04c is pretty realistic, particularly the raptor 50 3D & the Synergy. The Trex600 & the Knight seem to have lower blade inertia settings & I struggle with these a bit! Now correct me if I am wrong but the Raptor, the Trex600 & the Knight are all turning the same 600mm blades, shouldn’t they have the same setting for blade inertia?

If this is the final version I am happy, they have even fixed the plank tip stall thing.
It is really impressive how fast the Phoenix team have digested & responded to peoples comments & found a compromise.

Raptor50luvver,
I wanna see the 100ft long pipe that goes with that engine!

I wanna see them bolt the block onto crankcase, that is going to be fun

That's only a baby engine - they do them up to 14 cylinders if you can fit it in the frames .
Might need more than a two blade head to lift the weight mind (2000t+).

Crikey, what the hell is that engine for, I presume something like a ship ??

No the engine is carried on a 48 ton truck,there is a wire drive between that and the heli so its a double bonus as no engine or fuel tank is onboard the model making it lighter..

The problem they are trying to overcome is developing a wire drive to the model that does not get tangled up during Piro Flips

The big container ships have one of these engines which can be up to 110000 horsepower. That will push 10000 to 14000 containers along at 25knots. Mind you 250t of fuel a day is not cheap .

I bet the cabins are full of Esso drinking glasses and other cheap tack

Fuel suppliers are so tight that last time we loaded fuel they wouldn't even give us a free pen for 60 grands worth of diesel .

Mind you my cabin is full of enough cheap tack anyway

Sixty grand for fuel


Thats like the amount you need to spend on Lipos for a decent days flying

Not far from the truth !!

Thats only on a small ship that doesn't go very far and lasts us about a month. A big container ship can do up to forty grands worth a day at full speed. No wonder shipping heli spares from Hong Kong is pricey

Blimey,you should get the captain to shop around a bit
