      So lets break the marketing hype down...

      Heli designed for intense 3D performance:

      - Ultra rigid frame (its going to be ridgid i believe regardless at this size)
      – Triple main shaft supports (3 bearing? I hope so, at 4000 rpm this could be very beneficial)
      – Quality injection molded plastics (what do they mean by quality? meaning expensive?)
      – Lightweight, high visibility and high-end airbrush canopy from Canomod (whop de do... how tough is it)
      – Autorotation integrated into main gear hub (yada yada... who is going to auto a heli this size)

      Main rotor

      - Semi rigid DFC head for precise performance (hmmm... DFC... low profile - could be nice)
      – Thrust bearings in main and tail grips (nice touch but would be small bearings i recon)
      – Oversize hardened spindle (whoops, maybe not... an oversiszed spindle means bigger bearings)
      – Ball raced 120° CCPM serviceable swash plate (ok so we can change the ball bearings?)
      – Swashplate linkages optimized geometry (nice - fully optimised or partial. The geometry is either right or its not)

      Tail system

      - Belt drive tail (low parts count and low crash cost) Agree with this one
      – Innovative delta box tail boom with no requirement for boom supports: Nice
      – Tail optimized to minimize vibration and servo load at high tail speed: Subjective.
      – CNC tail pulley with pretension pulley system: nice i think, would have to see it first hand/
      – Rigid carbon fiber 3mm diameter tail push rod for the increased tail control: yep... good

      Electronics & Power system

      - Battery tray fits a variety of battery packs 3s -4s (1300 to 1600 mAh) , 6s (800 to 950 mAh) – max length 75mm (did i hear 6s?... now i am excited)
      – ESC support suitable for 25 – 40A ESC and more: Yep..
      – Kit Motor: EOX 2214 – Black Edition – 4100KV – 3.17mm Shaft – suitable for 3s and 4s battery packs (dont bother give me 6s or nothing at all)
      – Hardened Steel Pinion included in the kit: 11T suitable for 4s – 4100 kV motors and 14T suitable for 3s – 4100 kV motors(optional pinions: 12-13-15) (what about 6s?)
      – Suitable for most micro cyclic and tail servos (caveat....???)
      – Smart and clean electronic wiring set up (depends who builds it)

      Specifications
      - Length: 530mm Height: 175mm Width: 80mm
      – Main rotor blade length: 255mm
      – Tail blade length: 47mm
      – Slant main gear: 140T 0.5 Mod
      – Wide head speed range: 3000 for sport flying a to 4500 for insane 3D
      – Tail gear ratio 4.214 (14T pulley) for 3800 – 4500rpm (optional 13T pulley available for low head speed 3000-4000 rpm)
      – Approximate RTF weight: 580g with 3s 1300mAh battery– suitable for 3.5 minutes of intense 3D at 4000rpm (seems to be very light at .6kg including battery)


      QUESTIONS:
      How crashable
      How fixable
      How does it fly
      Where is the 6s

      Anyone else have thoughts?
