Zerogravity mini Raven 49"

ZeroGravity · Jan 03, 2007, 10:01 AM

Hi guys

We have been working on this project for the past 6 month The new Zerogravity Mini Raven 49" Electric ARF was designed to deliver maximum aerobatic performance in a small and affortable package. Completely unlimited in its ability to perform all the outrageous maneuvers including 3D and precision flying. Stability in low and high speed flying and superb flying characteristics due to an innovative airfoil design are delivered in this small airplane in an unmatched way so you might be looking at a 49" plane but feel as a 35% while at the sticks.

We have designed the plane with no compromise on selected materials, hardware and accessories in order to bring into the R/C market one of the finest models available today.

Some of the Mini Raven's many unique features:

Two piece removable wing with a carbon fiber wing tube.

One piece canopy/hatch, ready to use out of the box, no more cutting and trying to fit and glue, the canopy is retained by 4 magnets, again already installed.

Beautiful color scheme and true to scale appearance on the ground and in the air

Two elevator servo setup possible (one or two servos)

CF horns all around

Fiberglass Wheel pants and cowl pre painted perfect color match to covering.

We had very good results with the equipment that we used listed below:

Wing span: 49"
Wing Area: 465 sq.in ''super light wing loading''
Length: 44"
Weight: 41oz -/+
Motor: Hacker A30-14L
Prop: APC 14x7E
Servos: HS-65's
FLIGHT POWER 3S 2500 Li pack

availability of the model will be announced soon.
