With its ultra-smooth handling and adrenalin-pumping 3D performance, this is the machine that demanding heli pilots have been waiting for: the Titan X50 kit with a torque tube-driven tail.
The torque tube-drive tail rotor is the most efficient system ever engineered for 100% power transfer and sharp rudder response, and that’s just one of the many advancements you’ll find on the Titan X50. The compound carbon/aluminum tail boom not only adds high-tech looks, it also adds stiffness that reduces vibration. The one-piece tail case is made of machined aluminum for extra strength with less weight, and each tail rotor grip has dual radial thrust bearings that increases precision and reliability.
Machined aluminum is also used for the underslung flybar head, and only the highest-grade carbon fiber is good enough for the main rotor blades. Plus, all shafts on the Titan X50 are made of heat-treated, hardened stainless steel.
If you’re ready for the ultimate heli flying experience, the Titan X50 with Torque Tube Tail is ready for you. It truly is the 50-class 3D machine with no limits!

Was hopeing for a loop followed by attempted murder of a train driver but still impressive
I was hoping they would do a loop with this Blue Thunder RC helicopter like they did with the actual RC helicopter that was used to film that famous scene in the movie.
If that's the Vario model that is fantastic, even if it's not it is still.a great looking RC.?
You need to battle an airwolf
If you ever accidentally lose control while flying this, make sure to radio in "Central, this is Blue Thunder, it seems that we have a ship down… Somewhere in the Watts area…"
In a British accent, of course. 😉
That turbine sound
One Day. A Full Size 1:1 Scale replica of the helicopter will be built in the not too distant future.
Show….
Officer Frank Murphy – "she's nose-heavier than the Ayatollah." Loved this movie. Great model, almost looks real.
The best heli design ever
No .22 machine gun action.
Wicked ?
Does it come with a tiny Roy Scheider?
