When is the 550 Ult shipping

[mpolzin]

I know there is lots of info on the treads but can someone help me out with a few questions.

I have the 6HV Ult and was wondering is the 550 Ult the same with just a shorter boom, boom supports, belt and tail control rod?

How stout is the new stock compass motor. I have the stock motor in both of my older 6HV's but went with the 4035 560KV scorpion in my ult.

I like how quite the 6HV Ult is compared to the 6HV. I have 2 older 6HV that I was thinking of selling one. Almost sold one 6HV yesterday but it fell through today.

When does anyone think this heli will ship. Prostar still says mid late may. It is now coming up on mid June.

Thanks,

I am kinda in the same boat as you are. What I understand is that the 550U is based off of the 6HV with just a shorter boom, blades, boom supports & belt. That's the info I have collected so far. I'm not sure what motor they are using and as far as shipping last I was told by Prostar the 550U would ship next week. So we will see in a few days or so

I have been waiting to buy one since they announced the 550U! Thats all the info I have right or wrong. If I am not correct someone please correct me.
