I Seem To Be Having Trouble Getting Enough Flying In. It Seems When I Have The Time The Weather Doesn't Cooperate. And When Both Of Those Line Up I Am Out Of Fuel Like Now!!!

Weather doesn't cooperate much here at all. Wisconsin's a little frigid to be flying here. My tail boom shrinks up on me and It's not worth all the effort to re-adjust it all the time from inside to out. Summer's nice, though. Lots of great flying days in the summer.
I go to indoor flying with my T-Rex around town in the gyms and we have an almost empty mall to play in if I'm in a pinch.

I Saw An Add For A Tt Raptor 50 That Comes W/ Tt.39 Engine. Does That Mean That I Can Convert My 30 To A 50 W/ Out Changing The Engine. And If So What Would The Benifits Be. Pros/ Cons?

IF it's a 50 size heli, it'll be majorly underpowered. Yes, you could probably do it, but the main advantage to a 50 is the power to weight ratio. The only big difference between a 30 and a 50 is a little bigger rotors, tail boom and motor as far as a Raptor goes. Just about everything else is pretty much the same.

If it has a .39 in it, then it's a 30 size heli. No way around it. I'm not sure why it would be advertised as a 50.
If in fact it does have 50 mechanics with a .39 engine I wouldn't fly it. The 30 and 50 have different gearing and should be changed to match the engine.

I Thought It Looked Odd, But In Rotor World Mag. There Is A Full Page Add From Thunder Tiger, And Among The Helis Listed Is A 50 V2 Kit W/ Pro 39h Engine. Which Is The Same Engine That Is In My 30.
