Description

Miniature Aircraft ® Interceptor E 620 size Electro

All new developments take place at Miniature Aircraft's headquarters in Bavaria. Our team has been supporting us for many years with above-average commitment very successfully in testing of new technologies and new models.

The Interceptor boasts a host of new features and innovations that form a high-performance yet smooth and quiet-running helicopter, designed and built to meet the demands of today's pilots and flying styles.

One of the innovations are particularly worth being mentioned here:

The Interceptor E 620 has a new type of servo mounting. Self-locking stop nuts are pressed into the screw-on points for the servos. This means that liquid threadlocker no longer needs to be used for the servo mounting screws to prevent the screws from unintentionally loosening. The problem of sticking servo spacer sleeves is therefore a thing of the past. The nuts can be easily replaced if necessary.

With !PrintYourParts! Miniature Aircraft is one of the first RC helicopter manufacturers ever to offer its customers the possibility to produce selected spare parts themselves, e.g. via 3D printing. This opens up completely new possibilities in terms of the individual selection of materials and coloring of the parts.

The main rotor head with optimized geometry for up to +/-12° cyclic angles of attack is predestined for high agility. Up to +/- 16° pitch allows ultimate stop maneuvers. Miniature Aircraft offers matching MS-Composit Rapid FBL blades which are specially designed for high angles of attack.
The damping values of the head can be adjusted over a wide range. The rotor head comes standard with three O-rings per side in 90-80-90 Shore tuning and alternativelly one O-ring and one POM bushings per side (included in the kit). O-rings are available in hardness grades from 50° to 90° Shore. This allows the head to be fully adjusted to the pilot's flying style and expectations.

The two-piece main rotor blade grips, which are manufactured in a single process without reclamping, result in much more precise blade guidance because the manufacturing tolerances that can hardly be avoided - which occur due to the necessary reclamping when manufacturing one-piece blade holders - do not occur here due to the principle.
This system allows convenient mounting of all bearings, dampers and other components on the spindle shaft together with the rotor head block. Finally, the blade holders are slid on and screwed on.

The swashplate follower arms are equipped with 5 ball bearings per arm and provide a more precise swashplate guidance.

As already known from the Whiplash family, Miniature Aircraft now completely eliminates the use of spacer bushings which are typically used with a bell crank to ensure the distance between two ball bearings. Instead of a spacer bushing, a third radial bearing is used which ensures the distance between the two outer bearings. The outer bearings are now designed as flange bearings. This significantly increases the robustness and service life of the bearing position.

The Interceptor features a single-stage helical geared drive train for smooth and quiet helicopter operation. The typical "whistling" of straight-toothed gearboxes is thus avoided. The gears have robust module 1 teeth and are exclusively CNC machined, which guarantees high concentricity and avoids vibrations. The gear ratio is 1:9.4. Gear ratio of 1:8.6 is optionally available.

The CNC machined freewheel hub has two oneway bearing elements for maximum robustness.

The tail gear housing has additional ball bearing supports. The tail rotor shaft bearings are pressed into aluminum parts that are mounted to the carbon side panels. This results in a precise ball bearing fit and a precise running belt drive. The proven 4.6:1 tail ratio offers the ability to fly tail blades from 90 to 95mm. The tail rotor of the Interceptor is a special feature. For the very first time it is possible to mount the tail rotor on the left or on the right side of the helicopter. The direction of rotation of the tail rotor can also be selected (clockwise or counterclockwise). Corresponding conversion kits are optionally available. By default, the Interceptor is delivered with the tail rotor on the right side and rotating counterclockwise.

The light and robust aluminum tail boom, which is specially manufactured according to the requirements of Miniature Aircraft, is particularly resistant to bending and torsion. The carbon tail control linkage has aluminum end pieces.

The Interceptor is probably the only helicopter of its kind whose carbon parts are made from 100% real carbon. The carbon material used to make the carbon parts for all X-Cell ® helicopters is specially made for Miniature Aircraft. It has a unique layer structure which was developed at Miniature Aircraft. This material gives the individual component as well as the whole helicopter an above average strength and robustness.

The new ball studs have a high-precision surface with a very hard coating. This significantly increases the service life of the plastic ball heads and the steel balls themselves.

The canopy of the Interceptor is based on a completely new shape and design and is therefore unique.
Matching to this, there is a large assortment of colored skid tubes, struts and tailbooms.
The selection of different designs and colors is continuously being expanded.
The strutts of the Interceptor are available as a !PrintYourParts! part. The STL data are available for download in the Miniature Aircraft Shop.
