soXos Strike 7.1 light combo (6S) with 1st Blades

«Lightness is the key!»

Since its introduction, the soXos Strike 7.1 has established itself as a robust and reliable machine for the demanding 3D pilot. The enormous strength of all components enables problem-free use of the most extreme motors. Many pilots also use it with a light setup and a 6s power system. We are now dedicating the new soXos Strike 7.1 Light to these pilots. By reworking many parts, its take-off weight, including the battery, has been reduced to less than 4 kg.

Due to its extremely low weight for a 700 size helicopter, the Strike 7.1 Light can be flown at significantly lower headspeeds, giving the pilot a completely new, calmer and more relaxed feeling of flying. Its flight envelope is not limited to leisurely and relaxed cruising around, but all common aerobatic manoeuvres can also be carried out with this lightweight model - just everything performed a little quieter, slower, and more chilled out. This makes it the ultimate fun device for relaxed after-work flights or for pilots who don't want to deal with large and expensive batteries and the associated charging technology.

Here are the main differences to the well-known Strike 7.1:
- 10 mm rotor shaft and 8 mm feathering shaft
- Adapted rotor head block, blade grips (grip size and bolt hole are still 14mm and 5 mm)
- Intermediate gear with lighter oneway adapted to the lower power system performance
- Motor pinion in Aluminum
- More generously milled, lighter carbon fibre composite side plates
- Smaller, lighter glass fibre composite canopy

The rest of the model has been taken directly from the "big" brother 7.1. The entire tail assembly also comes from the Strike 7.1, so that Strike light pilots can enjoy the same tail performance that extreme pilots value so much on the 7.1. In addition, the many identical parts also make it easier to stock up on spare parts for pilots who already own a Strike 7.1.
