Seen some pics and some information on other forums it looks really good indeed! I'd like to know if you guys have one of these in your mitts yet and what your thoughts are?

I found some pictures It does look like a great Heli!
They have redisigned it to be a complete package capable of nice smooth flying to all out 3D, realy robust.

If I was looking at another 50 nitro this is the machine!

interesting.. i see a belt for the main gear but the tail has a pinion gear for shaft drive.. curious how thats set up in the boom

No you can simply choose whewther you want a belt driven kit, or a tourque tube kit is all, and from what I read you can convert your belt drive to TT as well by buying the conversion kit stand alone. Looks great to me!

I saw a video of this at the "N" toy fair.

This machine looks like the best 50 nitro out there this year.

Is this a new model not released yet? Or is it of the SE version?

Colin · 02-18-2010, 05:48 PM

This is a completely new model. There will be two kits available - a belt driven version, and a shaft driven tail version. We want to make sure the X50 is problem free when it hits the streets, so the release probably wont be for another 4 months or so.

Cheers,

Colin

Colin, thanks for coming to our fun-fly in Ottawa! I had no idea you would be coming, and I've never seen heli-flying like that in person! Awesome, AWESOME, flying, man!

I was the Tyler flying the 50cc Sukhoi, not the one who is in full scale heli-training.
