Not yet but should be real soon. I am thinking this will be my next toy. I'm maxed out on heli's at this point. I have a HK500 that I haven't been real happy with. As soon as it meets it's demise, I will replace it with a Chaos 500 or maybe the new 550. I have been recommending the soon to be released 550 to my buddy's who are looking for a new heli. If anyone has any insight when these will be available let me know and I'll pass the info to my local heli guys. Thanks.

Know whatcha mean about "cash and time"...those 2 things are hard to come by these days...LOL. As for Chumley's idea, thats actually not such a bad idea at all....why shouldn't the lounge memebers have the first dip on new products like the 550? Yeah dude....tell Cliff and I can only think he would agree.

OK, sold off the HK500 tonight so I have a little room for expansion. I was thinking about a FBL Chaos500, but it doesn't appear that there is currently a kit for that. I know I could get a Chaos500 Pro and convert it to FBL, but then I might be up to the cost of a Chaos550 kit. Decisions, decisions - I will hold tight to see what RC Aerodyne offers as I have been happiest with my current Chaos over my HK clones.

I know there are a hand full of ppl who are waiting on it so hopefully it'll be soon. There isn't an offical release date as I know of yet but as soon as Cliff knows something it'll be announce here first.

Chumley wait for the 550, I dont think you will be dissapointed. You could also do what I did to a 600E which is slap a 630KV motor in it running it on 10s. Guess I need to move that to FBL too especially since I like the way my 700 and 550 handles. Sorry guys the 550 is a Gaui not the new Chaos yet

Guess I need to move that to FBL too especially since I like the way my 700 and 550 handles. Sorry guys the 550 is a Gaui not the new Chaos yet I sold off all the 500 specific stuff (mini-servos) so I am free to replace it with the 550. I have an HV esc and Scorpion motor waiting to go into my Chaos600, but I need to get a gyro for it first. I think the 550 will be on my Christmas list this year . . . ***EDIT*** OK, Plan B - I will get a good gyro for my Chaos 600 and keep it as a flybar, 6S setup. It flus pretty good for my current skill level. When the 550 comes out, I will get one of those and turn it into a flybarless hotrod. I have a 630KV Scorpion and an HV esc that I was going to use in the 600 to run 12S, but will instead just use it on the 550.

I will definatley be adding this to my chaos family.. I'll be pumping Chaos 550E video's out just like I do with the Chaos 700E,Chaos 600E and Chaos 450PRO ;D .If any of you guy's flown a 550 size heli,you know the Chaos 550E will be the bomb .My Chaos 700E is by far my fav heli because of the size and power.The Chaos 600E is a awesome flyer with good power but a 550E will smoke it hand's down 6S vs 6S ..The power to weight of 550's are awesome so the Chaos 550E will be a rocket and blast to fly...This is going to be a "off the hook" heli guy and you'll fall in love ...
