Haven't a clue, but on there past track record of quality i'll be givin one a try, hope it allows a little more collective pitch. And it's a damn sight cheaper than replacing the standard headblock.

If only they made a better tailcase, I'd buy one again.

No joke! A Vibe 90 with that kind of spunk would be sweet.

I think your right. I seem to recall the same price.
Heli nut: the 90 and 50 have the same OD but the id on the 90 is slightly smaller like it's has a thicker wall.

That Kasama head looks killer on the Vibe 90. Sweet !!!

If the Vibe 50 tailcase works, then I might seriously consider the Vibe 90 again.

Unfortunately, the Vibe 90 TT attaches to the tailcase with 4 set screws, and the Vibe 50 uses a cross head tailcase driver. If you swap the two couplers, I guess you can make it work

Good thing the OD's are the same on the two.

I wish JR would realize what a sweet bird they would have if they would just correct a couple things.

how much pitch do you guys run on your vibes? I just modified my vigor cs today. I drilled a hole approximately 3mm in on the mixer arm on the side that goes to the swashplate. I can't believe how much better this thing flys, I switched to raptor 90 hardened flybar, MA white paddles and modified this arm. It's now capable of approximately 13-14 degrees of pitch both ways but i've got it turned down to around 12.

Vibe 50 tailcase is a great fit on the boom and some minor modifications to the TT are all thats required, once i've experimented with the easy option i'll post up. Even looks nice with the V90 tail fin installed!!

Sweet! Keep us posted. If it turnes out to be a good fix i'll jump on that. Hey, i belive the 50 and 90 use the same diameter torque tube so if you use the 90 couplings on one side and the 50 couplings on the other you might have something to work with!

Anybody knows if it is already available. I definitevely want to get me one for my Vibe 90.

Still the best Heli I've got.

Best way to predict the future, is to Invent it.
