Vertical 911, a publication dedicated to the usage of rc helicopters in the EMS, law enforcement, fire and search an rescue sectors, has recently featured and article about the Draganflyer X6. The article notes the UAV’s applications to policework and usage by the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) .
Vertical Magazine is the helicopter industries “insider” publication, featuring commentary by some of the industries leading voices. Although they usually feature full scale, piloted helicopter applications, our 1 kg UAV’s features were unique enough to write an article about.
The OPP became the first police service to use RC helicopters for forensic purposes inside city limits. You can learn more about Draganflyer X6 RC helicopters at www.draganfly.com

Scott Gray has just announced an updated version of the very popular Reactor X regulator. The new Reactor X2 adds two new key features to the proven Reactor X design; 1. three selectable voltages, and 2. 15amp continuous output power bus. The original Reactor X had two selectable voltages; 6.0v and 6.8v. The Reactor X2 adds a third selectable voltage of 8.4v unregulated bypass for the cyclic servos. Regardless of which voltage your select, the RX is still powered by a reliable 5.2v power source for the remaining radio components. The best part is the updated Reactor X2 retains the same retail price as the last version, $134.95!

UPDATE: Today we received an e-mail from Bert Kammerer stating the new OS 91HZ-PS is *not* the same engine he has been testing recently. While the new 61b-PII carb does feature an updated regulator design, it is not the completely new regulator system that Bert and other OS pilots are currently testing. While the new motor more then likely runs better then the previous PS version, you can expect another new motor this coming Sprin/Summer 2010 featuring the completely redesigned regulator.
As we reported a couple weeks ago OS has begun shipping their latest 91 engine. The OS 91HZ-PS 3D features the updated 61B-PII carburetor with newly designed regulator system that matches the on-board PD-08 pump. This is the exact same motor and regulator system we saw both Matt Botos and Bert Kammerer testing this past summer in their heli’s with amazing results! Well, the new motor is officially in stock at Experience RC and Esprit Models and ready to ship today!

Effectively immediately Common Sense RC has terminated their US distribution of the Compass Model brand. This means they are liquidating their entire inventory of Compass kits and parts. They are offering 50% off everything and free shipping on orders over $500. If you own a Compass model, now would be an excellent time to purchase some spare parts. As of right now there is no announcement of a replacement US distributor, but when and if there is one we will have that news for you right here!
