I am gonna place an order for the rcaerodyne kit today, but will probably not use the mechanics,

goblin mechanics look like they will do the trick, and vario has the tail conversion for the goblin mechs.......I would rather overbuild than under.... outrage HV servos, Xera 4530-500 castle 160hv on 12s, ar7200bx FBL..... Should be a monster??

Now just need to run down the strongest tail drive setup and I think this is doable...

"Need More Parts"

As someone posted earlier, the RC Aerodyne Cobra can do aerobatics using the stock/purpose built mechanics. You just need to make sure that you have a powerful enough motor, high enough head speed and a suitable positive and negative pitch range. You're just asking for a lot of unnecessary work to switch out the included mechanics. If you want to use your own mechanics then buy a less expensive kit that doesn't already include mechanics. What's the purpose in buying a $2K kit and then not using the $1K worth of mechanics that are included?

If you're set on goblin mechanics...
then you can get this one.

you can either do magic as far as detail is concerned... or keep it simple and light for acrobatics and looking great in the air...

just my 2c...

>>after claiming RCA sells superscale fuelages for $450..u went and increased your LOWBALL OFFER TO $550 ....posted it on my AD THIS Morning .>> https://rc.runryder.com/t757648p1/?p=6238773#RR . I blocked you out 2 days ago because of ur noN-stop PM pestering,,,
LEAVE MY ADS ALONE.and RUN TO RCA.!!!!

.THERE ARE PLENTY OF SCALE FUSELAGE ONLY IN THE 500 AND 600 SECTION ,,Most LITTLE OVER YOUR BUDGET,RCA HAS TONS of them ..they are NOT superscales .
>>>>>> I RESPONDED TO YOUR LOWBALLING MESSAGE TO ME ON YOUR OWN THREAD..leave me and my ADS alone.

,,,I called RCA they have never heard of you NOR DO THEY SELL BODY PARTS FOR THE SUPERSCALE 700..

I am building one of these cobras right now. You will be better off going with the supplied mechanics because you will have to do some playing around to get those to work. Go to the Roban site and dowload the cobra manual so you can see first hand what it is going to take to make the goblin mechanics work.

must be short man syndrome is all I can say. I tried to be nice.. and civil..

anyone that goes to your link will see there is no price and all it says is "taking offers"

I did call rc aerodyne, and made an offer to you based on their opinion of its value from you.

you might want to rethink your sales tactics. I was interested in your fuselage, but I would not take it from you now if it was free!

I feel sorry for the widow who actually is selling this (if what you put on eBay is true) I wonder how she would like how you treat potential buyers........ Just Sayin'

"Need More Parts"

it must be the NO MONEY, NO SKILL,NO Clue> BUT KNOW IT ALL SYNDROME.,,..wont stop pestering me..keeps upping his "peso" offers,,i said NO ! your all "talk big" and "pay low".offers
,>>, .Run to RCA with your pesos wild bill hiccup !!.!! Run !.,.....Everyone is waiting for your full 3d $10000 scale heli !! (how much is that in pesos?)

I would like to thank all of you for your help. I appreciate the kind words of advice from those of you who took the time. I look forward to Ircha this year and getting into this end of the hobby.

"Need More Parts"

Last year, @ Cajunfest (1hander) was 3ding his Turbine md500 all over!!! Not a light machine by any stretch of the imagination.. So, yes it can be done...
And I have done a loop and roll in a "Full size" CH-53a Helicopter (Have the video) back in the day...
Now having said that, you WILL NOT be seeing me "Loop and Roll" MY Turbine CH-53
But feel free if YOU want to do that with your birds...

WILL NOT be seeing me "Loop and Roll" MY Turbine CH-53

Oh, come on Jim.. you do it in the full size, but not with your model... what is WRONG with this picture!!!???!!!!!!

Bill, we look forward to meeting you at IRCHA this year....

Hang in there...something will come along... nothing says you cannot do a Vario fuselage with your 800 mechanics!!!!!

Best of Luck.... Stan

definitely.... it made me much more interested after talking with Darrell Sprayberry.... he told me his goal is to loop and roll the 7 foot scale Apache with Mr. Botos at the sticks.....

My kind of guy! Can't wait until Ircha!!!

Might have to get to the scale meet in Georgia this summer....

"Need More Parts"

No" might" to it!!! You have to get to Dalton.... ( more fun than Ircha...) if that is possible!!

Home of the "Sea Cobra".....

Dalton!!!

Make it the first time and you will want to make every year!!
This year will be a few week...first part sharing with regular club members, and even some airplane flying if you like..then Wed or Thurs, it becomes all scale helis...great time with great people and even better food...

Slight correction

1hander at Cajun Heli Fest actually was looping and rolling a turbine Vario EC135 with a fenestron tail not an MD500. Proving that if it is built right and flown with audacity it can be done. That is correct for all the naysayers...a fenestron tail!

Do what you gotta do...and as Stan said, good luck. One thing is for sure, it can be done...speed and altitude, speed and altitude!

Don't try this at home kids....
Paul

I have to agree with Paul. I have seen 1Hander do loops with this heli at scale masters 2 years ago. He is definitely a skilled pilot...
Barry

All helis and planes have an expiration date stamped on them...you only find it after you crash!!

yep..sorry for mis-information.. was an EC... Ya know, as you get older things start to fail...?... Second thing to go is memory?

Can't we all just get along?

Here is my RCA 700 size cobra... getting ready to install the included mechanics. I choose the white version so I could do a custom paintjob on it as I love the forest service scheme. I should hopefully have her flying in a week or two, hey Mojave wana get together for the maiden?
