Electric RC helicopters are becoming more popular every day. However, one of their main criticisms is that the lack of large models. Most electric RC helicopters size of 400, not even as big as .30 size nitro helicopters - the smallest type electric RC helicopter pilots who wanted to fly larger models actually choose a single model - the T-Rex 600 , Although the results are very good, comes with a hefty price. Well, the production ofGAUI, producer of many successful models such as zoom and the Shogun, comes another model for the void to fill in the big electric helicopter market: the 550th Hurricane With a much lower price, the storm undoubtedly provide 550 pilots who are looking for hands on a big electric model helicopter deal with a promising alternative.

The Hurricane 550 comes as an ARF (almost ready to fly) kit and claims to be 95% pre-assembled at the factory. No need to install theRadio receivers, servos and the gyro - a task that usually requires at least an hour for beginners. Yet reached the main frame, the set of head and tail is already installed. The frame is made of plastic composite that is strong and durable. The way in which each piece should be put together is very impressive. Although the model is assembled, the manual offers a comprehensive guide on how to be completely rebuilt from scratch. This is very nice because they are missingInstructions extensive repairs would be a daunting task.
The cabinet is already painted. For many people, painting is not its strongest feature, this is good news poster. On the other hand, others who enjoy their helicopter gun may be less appreciated. The quality of this site is should be noted that the canopy significantly thinner than other models, making it more fragile, prone. However, his hair thinner is a good weight saving. This kit also includes a motor and aSpeed controller. The engine, the 800-kV-runner, has been updated and produce less heat and consume less energy.
Regarding the battery, the hurricane draws its required 22.2 V 11.1 from two packs. Personally I think this is a very clever way to implement its power - in contrast to the T-Rex 600, which requires a whole new expensive battery.
The wooden paddle that comes with the kit is already sufficient. But for model builders, something else would this modelin particular the size of the blades 470-550 in any helicopter blades that make the 0.32 size nitro.
In flight:
In flight the Hurricane 550 proves an able helicopter. From beginner to advanced riders should note that this model of flying fun, fast and fresh. It is not as aggressive and the T-REX 600, but then again, I do not want this model is that push-to-fly, which is made for the most demanding 3D maneuvers, such as plastic swashplate. As for the flight of time, this modelstay in the air for 8 minutes, normal flight and 5 minutes of 3D flight. All in all, although this model with the tails in aluminum, carbon fiber bodywork and accessories shiny T-Rex, it's definitely worth the price to come.
