As per your requests, here's a comprehensive review of the Protos 700, complete with detailed images and insights into my setup. To put it simply and emphasize the essentials, the mechanics of the Protos 700 are top-notch.
The frame consists of two parts, one made of carbon and the other of plastic (upper and lower), seamlessly joining together. The carbon frame ensures rigidity, while the plastic component accommodates the battery compartment. The servos are conveniently mounted, facing the main shaft, and are easily accessible thanks to the intelligently designed frame cuts.
The direct linkage from the servos to the swashplate results in swift and precise responses from the rotor head when the servos are in action. Swapping out the battery is a breeze, eliminating the risk of finger cuts during changes.
The rotor head is impressively sturdy and responsive, without impacting the performance of the FBL, which ensures exceptionally smooth flight, making it feel as though it's gliding effortlessly along a railway track.
One of my pet peeves is when the tail doesn't perform as expected. Often, the blame is placed on the FBL unit, but the quality of the tail rotor design can also be a culprit. The Protos 700, however, excels in this aspect. Even during high-speed flights or when executing a 90-degree rotation to counter strong winds, it maintains stability and control.
What truly stands out is its quiet operation. Many electric helicopters generate a noise akin to a washing machine filled with stones at full tilt. The Protos 700, in contrast, remains remarkably hushed. The only audible sound is the delightful whir of the rotor blades. Finally, an electric helicopter that won't shatter your eardrums!
Worried about the canopy? Fear not. Inside, you'll find four magnets that securely hold it in place, even during the most acrobatic maneuvers. It's a clever and reliable system that surpasses expectations. (I can't help but wonder how many helicopters Corrado crashed before discovering the perfect magnets!)"
