thanks guys

fusionsx00 · 04-30-2012, 02:20 AM

Wow I want one

heliglenn71 · 04-30-2012, 05:00 PM

I've got a 450pro with 2221-6. Look like I'll be swapping my electronics over to the warp360! Im more then happy with my 6hv so hope compass brings the same quality to the table with the warp360. Now hurry up and get the testing done before Xmas comes around!!! By the way any guess on price??

does it not have a autorotation gear during the auto no tail really like this heli but like having autorotation gear also

I can't wait....

Most 450's are dificult to auto because of their size. Not having the tail powered in an auto will help keep some extra energy in the rotor disk to help with auto's.

What are we thinking price wise for the kit? Looks super nice, and I bet it puts everyone elses quality to shame!

Caleb White · 05-01-2012, 10:35 AM

Price can only be pure speculation at this point and I would hope that isn't a major discussion at this point. Too many things can change in the design and manufacturing process from now. Usually price isn't released until the first batch order begins at the factories and the distributors get the info.

My guess it would be in the ball park of an Align 450 airframe with equivalent accessories included (or not). A motor may not come in first batch kits, don't know, but most likely will eventually have a Compass motor for this (like 7hv)

pugdavey · 05-01-2012, 01:26 PM

Looking forward to this. The beams going to be retired for this, just hope the UK's going to get it within a reasonable time

DominicD · 05-01-2012, 01:29 PM

Horrible Dave just horrible, it's like you raped my soul

How is that funky headblock working out ?

Dave Ketelhut · 05-01-2012, 02:36 PM

LOL its working great, you can run lower head speeds then what i thought, but with the rigid head it is extremely locked in and stable.

DominicD · 05-01-2012, 02:39 PM

I still might wanna get one. I flew a 450x with beastx on the weekend..... a 450 on FBL doesn't fly at all what I remember 450s flying like.

They are quite fun!

ScotY · 05-01-2012, 06:52 PM

Curious to know what the lowest head speeds you're testing are. It's nice to be able to dial back the rpm sometimes and, with the rigid head, wondering how low you can go before you get the shakes.

Maxthepersonz · 05-01-2012, 10:02 PM

I don't even care what the price is just was curious. I just know I have a 450X sitting here waiting to "borrow" some electronics from

twistedgrim · 05-02-2012, 02:24 AM

Impressive really, Warp360 has been in my mind since I heard of it and saw the first pictures. This really cements it as my 360 size heli of choice when it comes out. Time to sell my 450 pro in prep of getting this going. Now back to my 7HV and Atom 500 normal program. Loving it guys!!

dunkonu23 · 05-02-2012, 04:39 AM

My first helicopter was a 450 stretch... took 350-360mm blades. I can't wait to transfer blades!

Were those RotorTech blades? Just wondering because I thought I saw a little porpoise just before Dave did one of his patented "build test" maneuvers.

Maybe I've just watched that video too many times, who knows.

I have to clean up some drool...

Maxthepersonz · 05-02-2012, 01:21 PM

Do we know yet if the stock motor can run 6s?

DominicD · 05-02-2012, 01:22 PM

Stock setup is going to be 6s.

Sweet thanks for the reply. 1000-1300mah range I would assume?
