HIROBO Freya - Sceadu - Shuttle > New to Hirobo

This may brand me right away as a noob but I will ask anyway. I used to fly a Raptor 50 V2 and loved it. Thunder Tiger is supposed to be good for a beginner because of the availability in parts. I got fairly good with the rappy and also flying a friend's eflite. Recently I got permission from the Boss to start planning for another chopper and have always eyed Hirobo as alternate. I like the Raptors but seriously might switch over if I knew what the pros and cons were. Does EVO stand for anything specific? How do the Raptors and Hirobos compare? That kind of thing. Thanks.

Evo means Evolution

They are nice, here's a review on one.

Very smooth. Not as nimble as a trex 600, not quite as tough as a Raptor and some of the parts cost a little more.

Also check out the Vibe 50

The EVO 50 flys much better than the raptor 50,parts cost about the same for both. The Trex 600 would be a better choice of the 3.

The Evo 50 was or is my first nitro.200 flights and I had to replace only a clutchliner. I fly aerobatics and mild 3 d. I love my Evo. Oh I forgott after 185 flights the oneway cracked, that is a known issue and there is a modified bearing available and also the greas mod.Took 5 minutes to change the oneway. Runs smoth as ever-
