Its in a new hanger now that's just what I do. No reflection on the model.

I love my protos 500, if I were to ever change from align this would be my first point of call!!

Geometry with the Vbar is within range but on the low side. It flies without any strange tendencies quite the opposite it's very accurate and confidence inspiring.

Weight wise it does appear to be light however the metal work is beefy, main gear beefy in fact it's all beefy and does add up. This is never going to be the lightest 700 but does fly remarkably well.

I like it when a model inspires confidence.

The weight of 5.65Kg is without batteries?

[Guest]

Yes subtract 1.4kg for my lipo. You could easily get the weight down with a smaller esc and motor.

Cool.
I like your esc/motor combo, killer setup

How is it so heavy? there are very few parts to it and the layout is (obviously) very similar to my protos 500 which is barely any heavier than the average 450! I realise this one now has dual belt drive rather than single but it looks like it should be very light.

it's about 5.6kg same as logo 700 but moves like it's a lot lighter thanks to the belt drive.
There is a new plastic frame coming out soon which will make the heli lighter with about 2-300g
