A Closer Look



Features

  • Mounting the motor higher and positioning the battery tray between the frames allows for easier interior access and improved balance.
  • The Quick Calibration System makes setup a snap.
  • A helical main gear transfers torque more efficiently and is angled to provide more surface area for greater strength.
  • One-piece machined aluminum tail gear box.
  • Hollow 15mm hardened main shaft.
  • All-metal rotor control system.
  • A wide +/- 15° collective pitch range.
  • Equipped with a 135° swash plate, with an optional 140°.
  • At 8-1/4 pounds flight-ready, the Raptor G4 E720 is more agile than heavier machines.

Testimonials

"The G4's quality is outstanding; I've never been happier with a high-end contest heli. The quick release battery tray is about as cool as sliced bread – everyone is impressed when they see a set of batteries removed and installed in less than ten seconds. Mr. Taya did a fantastic job designing this machine."
-Wayne Mann

"I've been flying the Raptor G4 for about six months now, and I am very impressed. Even after all the hard 3D maneuvers I've put this machine through, I haven't had to replace anything – it's a complete joy to own."
— Todd Bennett
