I've heard that Century will be coming out with a Turbine Predator. Has anyone heard of this? I've heard others saying that it suppose to be available for viewing at the Toledo show. I called Century and was told that they will have "SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL" to show at Toledo show.

I wish I could be there. I've seen the Predator and now the Turbine Predator....this has got to be a great deal.

Century now has a link to a video of the Predator Turbine Helicopter at:
http://www.centuryheli.com/products/videos/index.htm

Be sure to save it to your desk top and run it from there. Just listen to that great sound and what it can do.

I have been to Toledo and yes they introduced the Century turbine.It does use the predator and really looks nice.It is still in proto type and they don't even have an idea when it will be avaliable and what kind of cost but they hope to keep it lower than the others.It uses the sps trans ,so there are no belts to go bad and you shouldn't have the trouble with the exhaust that the others do.They hope to make a turbine adpt kit and you can put on any turbine thus using any turbine you might have or can get cheap.

Sorry I didn't get any pics,but if you go to the SPS site ,list in my post above, you can see the turbine/ drive unit and the only difference is the mechanics that they use on top of it.

Had the chance to see this fly last weekend. One, if not the smoothest helicopter that I have ever seen.

I need one of these.
