It's a shame that they didn't take the opportunity to move away from the crown gear type tail drive arrangement. Yes I know it works, but the type that runs off a counter gear is more robust, easier to adjust, and more forgiving of the gear mesh setting.

I think there sales strategy is totally wrong, the super gasser will be for the elite market and therefore sales will be limited, I guess that will match there parts supplies so maybe that’s the reason for it

A smaller cheaper version like the 20cc would make more sense as people are constantly asking for one.

Wonder if this will give Ace some ammo?

What do I need ammo for?

Some people look at change as being negative while some people look at change as being positive.

One thing is for sure; if a company does not make any changes and continues to sell the same bits it will eventually wither. This type of business will always have spare bits on the shelf. The company that doesn’t change can only sell bits, the same bits, whereas the company that does change can sell the present bits and also sell future bits before they exist. The company that constantly changes will never have enough spare bits on the shelf. Engineering is a huge overhead in any company and considered a necessary evil for future sales, kind of like an advertising expense.

You will find the company that doesn’t change has practically a non existent engineering department and relies on past successes. But the clock keeps ticking and change is inevitable.

The American automobile companies lost their market share because they resisted change. GM has made more than one successful electric car in past years but decided to kill the projects. Japan will beat us to the punch on this one too. Such a shame.

You seem to be pro Century ( I'll admit I like them from my Swift to my Predator gasser!) and this looks like a fine ship.

Not everything spoken or written is always a negative. I will one day get a Spectra G cause of couriosity but Century has always been good to me except one time so I'm staying. I like all helicopters.

The 911 turbo is old technology now, what you need on your Super wish list is the Koeniggsegg CCX,1004bhp

I am amazed they have it designed so you could drop the motor without monkeying around with the side frames.

friggen wow,, did you guys notice the internal ladder type framing, the top framing looks as if it mount to the Top Bearing Block all the was back to the boom, and then there is another one behind the engine, and the one under the engine, looks very strong

I hope Century makes one smaller for 720 size blades,, I think the canopy is great..

Im with you Wasp
I think the canopy looks awesome.
Why must everything look the same as XYZ brand?
The more gasser models out there the better.

If you bling it, they will come :D

Swinging 900mm blades you would want to run on gas

A 60 size Gasser would be so wicked

Whatever they build It's about time

I assume there's no timescale for a launch? Or indeed knowledge whether this will just be a long boom job or a shorter version?.. the more I look at it......

Personal I like that canopy. The design is easy to remove the engine and the boom. Also the main frame look like less parts than the Predator.

What we really need is a new engine. The Zenoahs work well, but a specially designed gas heli engine would weigh a lot less and make more power. It's a shame the market isn't big enough to justify it, I'd bet a specially designed gas heli engine would end up flying the corresponding heli an awful lot like a glow powered 90.
