Does it come with a canapy and what does it look like?
It says "fiberglass canapy shown is optional and is not included" in both kit versions.

It probably comes with a cheap plain plastic canopy and the hot fiberglass shown in all the Swift Ads is optional.

For 30 bucks more, I'll get that ARF kit. Just snap on electronics and fly

How come after bashing hard on other belt driven helicotpers Century comes out with one of its own?

I loved the torque tube driven system!

I second that! I called century and asked what size battery and motor. I also asked if they will be offering a moto combo at anytime? The awnser was uhh uhh. I think I will play it safe and let the others who have money to burn figure this out and then I might jump in.

A Tango 45-10 and 6S2P will do you VERY well in this heli.

> how do you know?

Based on LOTS of anaylsis using the famous K.C. spreadsheet.

> what other options other than tango

Some other options are shown in http://www.rotorworks.net/showthread.php?t=802

> SWAG

I wouldn't really call it the "WAG" part. K.C.'s spreadsheet works pretty well and has been proven trustworthy many a time.

I'll buy it as soon as it hits the shelves this fall!! I've seen it earlier on century's site, amazing really...$219.95 for the kit, #249.95 for a fully built, ready to fly unit. Cool stuff.

I just hope they offer it with a motor/speed controller combo with lipo suggestions. Im interested Just not great at picking out motors and stuff. I loved my T-rex but want something more stable and impressive.

It should, as the spec recommended 530mm to 550mm blades.


Put a leash on that thing, and take it up for a spin.
