Blades, Engine, muffler and electrnics are not included
XL Power’s latest endeavor is to bring a high performance yet cost effective heli fit for absolute beginners and carry them through learning even the most advanced flying. XL’s Nimbus 550 Nitro is the perfect blend of electric type performance with an on the go fuel and fly nitro airframe, perfect for learning new maneuvers and for throwing in the car for at lunch or after work flights. 550 size can be flown in smaller areas and is super fun at fun fly events with a much more economical fuel consumption, cost effective to repair, and far less intimidation factor of flying aggressive or learning something new on a 700.
Nimbus 550 Nitro comes suited for the most common full size servo configuration, with option parts if you prefer to use mini servos, a pre-painted highly visible canopy, and bolt together easy building for getting you from the box to the air in no time. This airframe is built for flyers who want to fly as much as possible with the least amount of maintenance.
Features
- It features a proven tapered
clutch system adopted from the Nitro 700, making it the smoothest and easiest-to- align clutch stack available on the market. - With a 7.7 gear ratio, it
is perfectly matched to achieve a good rotor RPM while providing enough torque for demanding maneuvers with 550-580mm blades. Optional parts are available to stretch it to a 650-size with an 8.5 gear ratio. Engine maintenance is made easy with the ability to remove the engine from the bottom without disturbing other assemblies, taking only a few minutes. - The main gear directly
drives the head and has been designed to efficiently transmit rotor torque, producing peak power through extreme rigidity. - The core of the airframe
consists of a single-piece 7075 aluminum bearing block assembly and servo mount, which provides rigidity to the frame and drivetrain. - The cyclic servos are
arranged in a 120-degree layout for optimal control geometry. - The main gear hub utilizes
two one-way bearings, ensuring reliability even under extreme power combinations. Additionally, the large diameter tail boom eliminates the need for boom supports.

Large is a little big for Bostons
Color: Dogwood (Brown), Size: Large (Pack of 1)
Seems to be durable for 2 VERY agressive chewer Boston Terriers. Cricket and Alice are shockingly good at chewing - grateful they pick to do so with thier toys.
Trial vs other name brand competitor.
PetStages' is a little larger so harder to bite on fir small dogs, but seems to be equally durable. While PetStages proudly states it has real wood fiber and scent (whoch I thought would win)... they prefered the other. Both dogs love to chew on real sticks.
But, when the bossy one indicated she was taking over the stick the other dog had, they exchanged, and kept chewing, over and over, back and forth. I mean to say, whatever the prefered stick was at first didnt seem to matter later.
These super hard chew toys do make me nervous. One dog broke a tooth last summer on a different brand toy, a very expensive extraction bill, and poor pup's terrible discomfort... but the other did not and has amazing white teeth, all around.... so.

The best chew ever for a strong chewer
Color: Dogwood (Brown), Size: Large (Pack of 1)
We have a 77lb goldendoodle who loves these. We’re lucky because he doesn’t chew on anything other than his toys, but when he starts on this…he really goes at it. It’s healthy, (not synthetic), doesn’t break apart, (no pieces to worry about him swallowing), it just perfect for him. The noise may get on your nerves but it’s a small price to pay to keep him from chewing on your furniture, shoes, or anything else a mischievous dog can find.

Little pieces break off
Color: Dogwood (Brown), Size: Large (Pack of 1)
My dog is obsessed with this. It does last a long time even given her strong chewing capabilities. I wish it was a little bigger. The main reason I rated it so low is when my dog is chewing on this it breaks off a little plastic peice and sometimes it hits the back of her throat making her cough so you have to supervise with this.

Great for aggressive chewers
Color: Dogwood (Brown), Size: Large (Pack of 1)
My dog is an aggressive chewer so they are great for her. I would love to have one a bit thinner so it could fit in a holder so it is easier for her to hold while eating. This keeps her busy and is long lasting. I have purchased these multiple times.
