I will be trying smaller tanks to find just the right size. I ran a tank through it today and it flew very nice! I realy like the CCPM felt very percise!
It was however 115 with about 30 % Humidity High for Vegas!!!
So I didnt get it dialed in.
It did run very good!
I put it on a bathroom scale and it said it weighed 6 Lbs
This is not a very percise scale! I will be getting a better one soon!

I think the place to get them is RB innovations, I'm not sure of the web address but they are not hard to find. They will have a kit for the raptor 50 availiable any time if it isn't out already and will take custom orders.

IMHO that's a waste of time/money. If (and it's not) it was positive displacement (vane type) you might get some boost at the low (yes I said low RPM). A properly designed radial compressor(which it is not) at that size would need to turn 100K plus to produce any boost at all. The HP to turn it would "smoke" that wimpy belt. all that thing is going to do is "annoy" air molecules. And the heli may "whistle)

I'm with Heli_Gal. Much more likely to explode than to go fast.
