Tiger 1:8 – Fuselage Kit

The Tiger from VARIO is a 700 size scale helicopter. You can power this remote-controlled model helicopter with electric propulsion. Airbus Helicopters produces this helicopter.

For VARIO’s 700 Tiger we recommend a maximum main rotor speed of 1500 rpm. Electric drive sets from VARIO are already tuned to this head speed.

Skyfox-Electric Mechanics

The Skyfox mechanics is a classic VARIO original product. Where glow plug nitro engines used to be, today a small, powerful electric motor drives your rotorcraft. Skyfox, that stands for lightness as it is desired in electric flight resulting in longer flight times. The kit with Ord.No. 9003 contains the frames for the Skyfox mechanics. For this electromechanical system we offer a drive set for 10S LiPos.

The production of the Tiger goes back to a joint venture between Aerospatiale and MBB in the late 70‘s and built in 1984 as the PAH-2 for the Bundeswehr, as well as HAP / HAC for the French army. Because of the high cost, the project was discontinued in 1986, but resumed a year later and began construction of five prototypes.
