XLPower Specter 700 is an excellent offering, blending extreme high
performance, low parts count, and great value! The Specter 700 features a
high CG design, aided by mounting all electronics as high in the frame
as possible. Additionally, the main rotor is located as low as possible
to the tail boom further enhancing the CG design.
The main rotor head features a CNC polymer and O-Ring based dampening
system, which provides both great low headspeed characteristics, as
well as incredibly crisp feeling in high headspeed flight. The main
shaft is 15mm thick, offering improved crash resistance and strength
over most other 700s in the market. Blade grip pitch arms feature two
mounting holes (inner and outer), allowing pilots to tune their rotor
heads for incredibly aggressive pitch and cyclic response, or more
conventional and calmer reactions.
Additionally the helicopter features titanium based turnbuckles, which provides incredibly precise length adjustments.
The tail rotor is driven by a belt, providing pilots with simplicity
of both design and low parts count. Often times belts are desired due
to improved durability; in the event of a tail strike often times the
belt will skip a few teeth, and keep on running without damage to the
drive train.
Battery mounting is a breeze thanks to the sliding rail system.
Secured in the front by a single thumb-screw with O-Ring, batteries can
be changed in a matter of seconds! There is a large area of space
available for CG adjustment (front to back adjustments), or larger
battery packs such as 5,500 mAh 12s, or even 5000mAh 14s power systems!
Overall, the Specter 700 weighs in between 11 and 12 pounds depending
on electronic choices, making this heli one of the lightest on the
market.
