Lovely heli and I'm just in the process of building a new in the box Raw 580 nitro. Do you run a BEC from the 2s lipo to power your servos etc or can your servos handle upto 8V with direct power? Just wondering how yours is powered? Many thanks 😊
@@timgovier7884 hey there thanks for the comment, I run straight 2s I don’t even run a switch. As long as he run HV servo, you should be fine, you’re gonna love that thing! Peace!
@mykel1969 thanks so much for your info. Yes I can't wait to build it and get going. Gorgeous looking heli. I currently fly a Nice Trex 600 nitro and never flown an SAB before and got told you can notice the difference, what do you think? Thanks 😊
@@timgovier7884 You will notice a difference building it for sure, and most likely flying as well. I run OS 50hz in my raw 580, and .55hzr in my Trex 600 and Kraken 580. to be honest I like the 50 single needle carb better than the 55 hzr. The Raw 580 is so light, I don't think it needs the extra power. Thanks! Peace!
Thanks for the heads up. I have an OS50 Hyper in my Trex 600 and will be putting the same OS50 in the Raw aswell. I do like the simplicity of the single needle for tuning and find the 50 engine is good for me
hi are u using a govenor or just curves im just buiulding mine might fit the spektrum giro or the ikon not sure yet, great flight mind u dont hit your nice car😀.cheers
hey thanks for the nice words, Yes this Raw 580 is running the spectrum 6250 with the governor active. I am still running the Trex 600 nitro with curves. I learned with curves, but I only use them if there's not a governor. Get it in the air!! good luck!!

Is that a large patch of available empty land in the back? Should be much better to fly over there.
