    Thunder Tiger brings the excitement of a three bladed head in their new E550 Raptor! The high precision 140 degree ECCPM control system is skillfully machined out of aluminum. 95% of the assembly is completed at the factory, with plenty of room provided for a 6s LiPo battery. A Castle Creations Talon 90 speed controller is included, as are high torque metal gear servos and a digital tail servo. An 1150Kv Ace R/C Ripper brushless outrunner gives this bird its bite no matter the maneuver you want to perform. Experience the improved stability and and increased sensitivity inherent to a three bladed heli with the Raptor E550, the first three blade heli ARF on the market!

      Read a review in MHW. Looks to be pretty good with the stock kit. Are they available in Aus?
