      Speed helis are good platform for stress tests. Actually their "speed" is still rather pathetic considering that simple Multiplex Funjet with small propeller can reach > 300km/h.

      True SPEED > 800 km/h is domain of dynamic soaring gliders. Most funny part is they do not use any motors or engines just wind to reach that speed:

      So new name is official?

      I am kidding.

      Availability of many models was delayed for many many months:
      - Protos Max
      - Velos
      - TDS (next TDR)
      - Agile 7.2
      - ...

      Gaui says August. I say 2016. To early to get excited by premarketing activities.

      It simply is the message: "start saving $2 grand".

      Or Diabolo S or Banshee speed... Now everyone wants a piece of the speed market :)
      Will be interesting to see how the design inside the fuse varies between manufacturers, how they go about packing everything into a skinny package and still build a system that can handle the high speed loads.

      Edit: sorry thought you referred to the latest side on pic, now realize you mean the swash - how has Gaui gotten access to TDR2 parts already ;)
