Nows every bodys chance to tell me what they would like to see in the future of RCA as of 3D heli wise. The possibilities are endless with me and I would personally like to know from each one of you what you want! It will be a mystery heli!
lay it out there guys and gals!

Easier access to motor mounting screws and cyclic servo screws

How about a Chaos 800

what features would you like to see in a 800?

Direct to swash servo setup, 14s electric powered, TT tail, 800 size black widow head,aluminum rotor and tail blade grips, available as a kit or a combo,optional 16s motor setup would be awesome, and a price that would blow the XXtreme out of the water. I don't ask for much do I. ;D

Somethng that I've talk to Cliff in the past about.....Stronger TT gears, maybe ones made from carbon but with the process of "modulus carbon fiber". Therer is a process in which the carbon are compressed to be made really strong. I am thinking instead of having "plastic" TT gears, this new carbon version would be great since no one considered using metal due to its own issues.
Found this on the internet and thought would explain it better.....
Modulus Carbon
Modulus is how stiff the fiber is- the higher the modulus the stiffer the carbon fiber is.
Note: There is give and take between tensile strength and modulus. In other words if you have a high modulus carbon fiber it will be stiffer but also weaker in tensile strength than a low or standard modulus fiber.
High Modulus Carbon Fiber = Stiffer but weaker and more brittle parts.
High Strength / Low Modulus Carbon Fiber = Stronger but more flexible parts.
So why would you use one over the other?
In bikes you see a lot of hype about "High Modulus" carbon fiber- So why would they use high modulus if it is actually weaker than a low modulus carbon fiber? Well, you can get a stiffer bike frame while using less material, therefore making it lighter. Also because the strength lost isn't enough to compromise the safety of the frame.
So can I use low modulus carbon fiber on a bike frame? Absolutely, however, in order to get a frame that is as stiff as a high modulus frame you will need more carbon fiber and your frame will be heavier. (Actually the weight difference isn't that much, but when you're pro everything matters.)

How about upgrading the black widow unit so its like the 3gx or the new beastx spektrum unit. No receiver needed.

A 800 sized chaos would be the bomb to. Just get the bugs worked out before releasing to the public

More fuses for 250 helis would be great.

Why are tt gear not harder with a plastic shear pin holding it in place?

Instead of stripped gears a shear pin on torque tubes. No more replacing gears just a shear pin. Just a thought.
