Hello all, got the itch again. 9 years ago I started off in the RC world with a thunder tiger 50 V2. Had a lot of ups and downs. Till 3 year into it a kid made me an offer i couldn't pass up. Stupid me goes out and buys a QQ yak. got hooked on pattern and 3D flying. Littler lighter on the wallet too...lol. Now our club here is getting more and more heli guys. The itch is bugging me and the blade 130 is not covering it. looking to jump into a 550 bird size. Cant wait.

Quite a jump from the 130 to a 550. Certainly doable though. I went from the mCP X to a 500. Get ready for some serious "pucker factor" the first time you spool it up!

Its gona be a rush, but well worth it. I like the single batt setup, in a good size bird. The performance is more than enough for my skills. My old nitro bird was fun to toss around, but I got greedy and made the change. The itch is back and I placed an order with Ralph. Can't wait.
