Raptor 90 was created by Keith T
Now here is my marvellous Thunder Tiger Raptor 90 - OS91HZ engine, Align servos and BeastX flybarless controller.
I've been having technical troubles with it for some time after an electrical failure made it want to dig holes in the field :angry:
As usual, Mother Earth won and I've been having the mother of all problems getting it to fly properly again.
Everything now tested - just waiting for a break in the weather - nice & calm to give it a flight test!

With sufficient thrust, pigs will fly!

I NEVER crash, Sometimes I just land quickly in an unexpected manner

It would appear from live chat last night that the tank may be his last build for the time being, as he has got the " Itch" back for flying. Looks a good choice Sky
Sorry, just a bit off topic

Bit delayed here - but I managed to fly 4 thanks through it two weekends ago.
Much improved, but still some issues.
For some reason, the Align governor was playing up and the cyclic response was lightening fast - needs to steady down.
BUT
At about 300 ft up and blasting down to zoom past the field, it is an impressive sight.
Looks so HUGE in the air.
More tests soon - should be almost spot on :whistle:
