HIROBO Freya - Sceadu - Shuttle > 2nd chopper question

I've been eyeballing this Sceadu 30 and the Raptor 30... Which would be better overall, with aerobatics in mind?? Heliproz had a cool deal on the Raptor with lots of carbon and metal upgrades for about $519ish.. but I've also heard good things about the Sceadu... Parts are not a problem, since there are no close hobby shops here, I have to order them anyway.. so with that in mind, which would serve me longer????

Thanks

Well good question....

Do you want to stay with a 30 engine? If so my money is on the Raptor.The Sceadu 30 is a little underpowered from what I hear.
Now that said if you want to bump up to the 50 the Sceadu get's my vote all the way.
The Raptor 30 is a good aerobatic machine with the 32 installed and cheap to crash.
The Sceadu 30 is a very well built heli that is also easy on the wallet, but since it uses the same mechs as the 50 size it tends to be a little big and heavy for the 32 motors.
This is just my opinion. Their are others here who have the 30 Sceadus and can lend more specific info.
I can tell you I love my 50 and look forward to flying it.

2nd Chopper

My vote would go for the Seadu.A much better quality machine.I started out with a Raptor but like so many of them I had to upgrade to better parts because they kept on breaking because they were cheaply made.Also I think the Seadu flys better as well.Anyway thats my 2 cents worth.
