I've not heard of an issue with the baffles blowing out of the outrage pipes since the original Hyper-Rage .50 pipes that Outrage addressed, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. Sorry to hear yours took out the motor. Oy! Thanks for the kind words and sorry for the delayed response.

Since it's been a while since you posted originally, I hope you've done well with the Copter-X heli. I've heard that the hardware on most clones leaves something to be desired. I know I started out with an MX-450 and the hardware on it sucked. Glad to hear it’s helped. Since it’s been a while since you posted originally, I hope you’ve done well with the Copter-X heli.

Probablement 3 minutes ou moins. Jeff Bonjour,

Been going through pre-flight education and this glossary has been just amazing at helping me understand all the jargon. Atleast now I'm on the same page as all other rc heli hobbyists. Thanks a bunch! Hey Jeff,
