Hi guys.
Actually its my first post here. And I am proud to present my new self-gifted heli. I used to have Aligns and Raptors, but decided to go with JR this time. It was a love at first sight. I have been looking for a Synergy E6/7 or a Raptor X50E, for so long as i already had some gear to use, when i saw an advertisment at MHW. Next day it was on order from Ebay.
I was amazed to see the quality and how easy all the build went. Its the first time i don't loose any screws or bits and i owe it to JRs packaging. Each step was contained on a bag. You can see it in the pics as well.
The only thing i didn't like was a CA stopper, that locked a pin in the tail, that they have already attend it and i think it is now available for order and it might be contained in the new kits. Other than that there was no problem.
No main blades included, but there is a black blade holder. Tail blades are plastic.
I used 4 rubber ringsi had from a Raptor, on the skids, to have grip on ashpalt, as they are not included.
Setup I used is as follows.
Motor : Scorpion 4025-740kv
ESC : Castle Creations Ice 80HV
FBL Unit : BeastX
Swash Servos : Align DS610
Tail Servo : Futaba BLS 251
Regulator : Duralite 7,5Amp
RX : AR7000
RX Battery : Flighpower 2s 1600mAh
Main Batteries : 2X4s 5000mAh 30C / 2X5s 4000mAh 25C
Just a notice here, with BeastX and recommended distances between the servo ball links (27mm), there is no way to get 6deg cyclic pitch and blue light. I had to go down to 20mm to get blue light, but there i had binding with the bellcrank rods and the elevator servo case. I ended up grinding some plastic from the servo case as i didn't want to sacrifice maximum throws. Of course bellcrank rods are not anymore parallel, but i didn't notice any bad tendencies (It doesn't mean there are not any)
Maiden when uneventfull and left me with a huge smile. It feels both "heavy" when hovering and so light when it starts flying around.
Castle log, showed 47Amp drawn at max, 1600rpm @ 66%, 2100 @ 85%, flight time was 6:30min and put back in the battery 1860mAh out of 4000mAh (80% rule), so i estimate that 8+ minutes of sport flying is possible.
Feel free to ask anything.
Thanks for reading.
