Raven50 With eCCPM control system by Century Helicopters and supplied by Modelworlduk.
The Raven was brought from model world's stand at sand down earlier this year (2003) as a second hand model and has been highly upgraded. This was going to be my first experience with the eCCPM control system so I was looking forward to get it home and ready for its first flight in my hands.
Main visible upgrades are Carbon fibre, such as mainframes, rear fins and main blades.
Radio and Engine Jr pcm 10x radio, Futaba 9202 servo's on eCCPM control system, Futaba 9253 digital on tail and 3001 on throttle. Gyro is Futaba GY502 heading hold and engine is OS Max 50sx.
Following a few very successful flights the worst happened. the tail pitch slider came apart in flight leaving me no choice but to bring in down as it went into an uncontrollable pirouette and headed off towards fellow members on the flight line.
The damadge added up to around 300 quid and a new kit is only £350.So ive decided to get another kit and start afresh. New Kit has arrived
