Synergy E7 Speed- Are you ready?

[Barry Tilson]

Is it a canopy mod? Rumor time!

I heard it's going to be pink!! 

Now pink is a very visible color and would be great when you are doing mach 1

Mach 1 would be a blurry pink!
More of a streak.

Think the gearing is different?

  Just need to ask Santa for a Kontronic Kosmic

Is this the santa wish list thread?  If so I hope santa brings me whatever is underneath that blanket in the photo.  And if he still has money left..........

Matt posted this on HF:

The E7 with a stock canopy is already capable of 125mph + depending on pilot and setup. Synergy owners will gain speed and esthetics with this canopy.
The point is not to beat the TDR or Banshe (which are very good at going fast) ...... The point is to give Synergy owners more options. As we have all seen in the past, speed is more than just the machine. Speed is also pilot skills and setup. With a proper setup and pilot skills the E7 with a speed canopy should be able to break into the 130+ mph group. The E7SE is a very well rounded helicopter, it can take a very severe 3D beating and for a 3D machine is relatively fast.

Technical speed related points aside, realize that not everyone wants to compete in speed runs they simply like a cool looking canopy. Personally, I am going to configure a Synergy E7SE with a speed canopy and see how fast I can get it to run. As I mentioned earlier, with the stock canopy and mechanics I've run everywhere between 115 - 125mph with multiple 12S configurations with the head speed never going over 2200 rpm. There is plenty of room to go faster, especially with a much more aerodynamic canopy.

Release goal is Christmas.

Best Regards,

Matt

I have my second SE just waiting for a good speed canopy.  I have the Scorpion 4530-450 in it and plan to run 14s.  Just need to ask Santa for a Kontronic Kosmic

I have no idea at this point.  Don't have batts or ESC yet.  I can probably guestimate.  I will check and see what it is weighing out at without batts and ESC..

[Chris Wall]

Anything every happen with this canopy?

[Scott Anderson]

I believe that Matt is test flying the prototype speed canopy

[flyalan]

Matt does have flights on the canopy. It is awesome in the air!
I am sure he will update everyone once he is happy with the result.
