Hey Aaron, just wandering when we are going to get to see the video of the gasser. I now have high speed and can watch these videos. By the way what did you think of the Airwolf one by Century?

Hey hey, hold tight, we will do that video for you guys. We also are looking forward to doing more video work WITH the Gasser, it provides much longer flight times than my other AP model, my Ion-X. :D

Hey guys I got to see the big Predator fly this past weekend. Pretty damn nice bird. I was pleasently suprised at its flight envelope. You could see the weight but it didnt seem to stop either of the two very talented pilots fly the piss out of it. The coolest part is one guy would fly for awile then land hand over the TX and the other would go at it. and the thing still had a half tank of fuel. Damn guys another bird I have to have..

I'm glad you guys had a chance to fly the Predator. I do love mine! I still like to get the Raptor out and wring it out pretty good, though. The gasser's great, stable and capable...it just isn't as limber as my plastic fantastic. Seriously....you guys could have called with setup help. :( Ya gotta love the fuel consumption! :D What a presence in the air, too! :cool:

We still haven't seen that video. I'd like to see what it will do with someone of your skills at the sticks, Aaron.

It has already been taped, but we have not had a chance to edit it. Its gonna be a good one though, we shot it flying both 3D as well as a camera mount, and some of the video from the on board camera will be included too. We are working on it, sorry for the delay, but I promise the wait will be worth it. ;)

Here is an interesting video of the Predator GS that has been converted to a turbine. Great 3D from about the 3:00 minute mark. :)

Well I have had my Predator now for 3 years and have lost count of the number of gallons of fuel burned. It is just the SE aluminum frame version (ali frames) with the G-231 and the original V1 muffler.

This heli has been amazing with Rotor Tech 710 3D blades. Almost does 3D as well as my 90's (much better then any of the 60's I have ever owned), yet autos as well as some of my 90's...and at 20 cents for fuel per flight, I find I am flying it more and more with the high cost of glow fuel.

Still waiting for the video though. :D

But that is OK, as just by Googling "Century Predator Gas" on you tube I have found many...and some of these guys can really wring out this bird better then I can. :)
