vibe 90SG or wait for the rave 90? - AllMYRC.com-A Radio Control Helicopter, Airplane and Car Community

LoveMyTrex · 08-31-2009, 08:44 PM

I have flown my buddies vibe 90 SG enough to convince myself I have to buy one, despite the crazy price. but buy the time I save that much money the rave 90 will probably be out.

hmm I wonder?

Rave ENV of course.

That was easy

classic · 09-07-2009, 06:38 AM

Yup, I am waiting on the Rave 90 too.

LoveMyTrex · 09-07-2009, 07:55 AM

but have you guys flown the 90 SG? it flys awesome.

helivig · 09-08-2009, 08:13 AM

I agree the SG flies very solid and smooth.

LoveMyTrex · 09-14-2009, 09:23 AM

yes, it does fly awesome, but it is really expensive. how is the rave 90 nitro going curtis?

helivig · 09-14-2009, 09:44 AM

So far the testing is going fine. We still hope to have it to market before the end of the year.

LoveMyTrex · 09-14-2009, 09:06 PM

very cool, see you and the rave at heli invasion.

classic · 09-21-2009, 03:01 PM

Nothing against the SG, in fact I have a vibe 50 and love it, but I really like the way the little rave flew and the quality that went into it, so I will still wait.

So hurry up Curtis!

LoveMyTrex · 09-30-2009, 06:30 PM

I was debating buying one, but I flew my buddies again this weekend and it is great!

but can't wait to see curtis throw the rave around this weekend at the heli invasion.

blt4ice · 10-27-2009, 10:44 AM

Its like a heli-invasion forum in here

But ya I have a SG90 on the way.

Sorry Curtis I sold the turbine that you flew in VA already but at least it will be the machine that popped Nick's turbine cherry

Back to business though, I'm gonna stick with the JR Vibes as I have a 50 and I love it. The 90SG I will be using for precision flight and sticking with the vibe 50 for 3D when I can do 3D

I figure that now with the .55 OS out and flybarless that .50's will have power equal or greater to .90s

I may switch to the Rave line in the future but its just bad timing at the moment

helivig · 10-27-2009, 10:53 AM

Sounds cool. I am sure you will enjoy the 90SG. It is a nice precise flying machine.

LoveMyTrex · 10-28-2009, 09:05 PM

I am planning on picking up my 90SG from the LHS this week. I just love the way it flies. I will be exited to see how the rave compares.

LoveMyTrex · 10-30-2009, 09:54 PM

picked up the kit and just finished building the frames. holy crap they are rigid! now wonder it flies so crisp and precise.

Bluegarry1 · 11-17-2009, 10:53 AM

Yes the frames certainly are rigid !!
I've had my 90SG for about 3 months now and it's fully set-up for FAI/F3C flying.
I just love it

, but I'd also love a Rave ENV too !!

I may have missed it somewhere, but has Curtis posted an MSRP on the Rave 90 yet??

I'm glad I didn't buy an Align 700 yet! I will be getting a Rave 90 next, just the choice to go flybarless or flybar, I definately want it to be nitro.

LoveMyTrex · 06-03-2010, 08:27 AM

so I finally got it all put together and flying, the project got put on hold over the winter.

I built it exactly the same as my 700. 8717HV's, spartan 760 with 8900G on the tail, OS 91HZ with hatori SB-20, 7100r receiver, and a 3500G on the throttle.

the heli flies awesome, very crisp and light feeling despite being heavier than my 700.
