The Zimmermann is made from stainless steel and makes little more power than the M-Studio. The M-Studio is about 100g less in weight. Most of our team pilots use the Zimmermann.Blades: we recommend 710 to 720mm main blades. We have good experience with 716 Rail, 713 Switch, 720 MS-Composite and we have a special 710 MS-Composite which is optimized for the Whiplash gasser and turbine. 105mm tail blades work best. Servos: you need servos which can handle the vibrations of a gas helicopter. Most experience we have with Futaba, some team pilots fly KST servos. FBL: you can use the CGY760 (including a FASSTest receiver) or the new CGY755. For both FBLs you will need a separate receiver which can receive the FASST protocol and has a SBUS output. You can use the R7006SB or the R7108SB for example. Governor: it is highly recommended to use a governor at a gas helicopter. The Futaba FBLs do include a very good governor. So you will not need any separate one. If you use a FBL without a governor or with a governor which cannot handle gas engines you can use the Futaba GY701 governor. Receiver battery: any 2S LiPo / LiFe or 5S NiMh battery with at least 3500mAh Switch: we recommend a high quality electronical switch like the Futaba P-FESW-1D. It is important to use high quality connectors which can handle the vibrations. The Futaba switch comes with deans connectors also for the battery.HelicopterHeli Length52.5" (1343mm)Heli Height17.25" (439mm)Rotor Span1561-1621mm - 690-720mm bladesTail Rotor Span286mm with 105mm T/R bladesAvg.
