This is one awesome flying helicopter. Everything is soo godd about its flying style. I have not built the kit yet but i will be here soon in te near future. Check my signature. But i defently like it wayyy more than my raptor as of flying style. knifeedge tic tocs were soo effortless at 1850 rpm and my raptor was at 2100 and i could sill not event do them staionary! but with the knigt no problem!!

Ive been flying the metal Knight for 1 year now and was very impressed with it from the start. I got the first plastic Knight on the West coast so Ive had alot of time on it and Im even more impressed with this one, Its about a pound lighter and you can really feel it. The plastic Knight is holding up very good, I did have one small crash and the frames did a great job no cracks or striped screws. The Knight could sell for alot more money and still be a great deal. I hope guys get the same feeling when you fly it. JON

I keep hearing folks say this heli flys like a 60 size heli, is it a little bit heaver than most 50 size helis. Dose some know the weight of the Knight 50 then.

I think the metal Knight 50 is a bit heavier than other 50`s and this is maybe what gives it the feel of a bigger machine

Mine feels a lot like a 90 size model

The plastic one is a bit lighter though

I have been flying the metal version and it weighs in like the Sceadu. The Radix blades and the OS 50 Hyper make it a rocking machine.

Just got the plastic versio Friday to build over the next couple of days.

I am sure it will be on rails just like the metal brother.

It's really straight forward and I found all the parts to be complete.

All the linkages are pre-built but need to be sized per the manual since they are not right on from the factory. Also, when adjusting them the manual states the measure is taken NOT from the center of the links but from the inside surface so watch for that.

I forgot another piece -

The main blade holders are assembled but NO LOCTITE on the screws and little grease on the thrust bearings.

I had looked over the on line manule and i thought the links were mesured from end to end on the links in case you changed brandes of links.
