Finished the build of my Trex 600 EFL PRO today and did a little maiden by the pool area. I wasn't happy with it at first until I started tweaking the Normal Throttle settings. Need to get to the field tomorrow or Sunday and try it for real.

Just sold mine, but it was a brilliant model. Flew like my 700e.
Only thing is I couldn't see that canopy, it looks great on the ground but black in the air.Cheers,
Simon

What Throttle Curves are you using Dan? Blowing a GALE today, so probably not the best day for a proper Maiden? Clear BLUE sky though and LOADS of SUN.Originally posted by welchy1971 View PostBeen there and done that, but never stop learning.

Had my 600 for 18 months and haven't flown the 500 since I bought it.
Using the castle governor at 1800, 2000 and 2200. Getting an easy 7 minutes with 3300 batteries at 1800 h/s.
Can anyone recommend a canopy for better visibility?Comment

Trex 600 EFL PRO
I painted mine myself
does the job!
I don't govern mine just run 85/85/80/85/85 , 95/95/90/95/95 & 100% flat. I never use 100% and mostly fly in normal mode for my 3D to be honest. If I nurse it I can get over 6 minutes on 3300s, sometimes more if just doing basis hovering orientation stuff.
Absolutely superb heli IMO.

hi, running linea on normal (0-inh-50-inh-100), st1 (85-inh-80-inh-85), st2 (100-inh-95-inh-100), everything is stock from the box except the beastx instead of 3gx. Not using gov mode just these curves and they work fine for me, st1 for sport flying and a leisurely pootle about, st2 for 3d, but I'm no hard 3d'er but the heli comes a bit of an animal in st2 and quick too! cheers DanOriginally posted by johnsandywhite View PostDan

Thanks Dan. I am used to fast. But I prefer a slower, smooth 3D. Sounds like Idle 1 for me.Been there and done that, but never stop learning.

Well the SUN was shining and the expected high winds and rain were not in evidence. Calm winds and reasonably clear sky was perfect for a Maiden flight.
First attempt at Idle 1 at 75% straight and Idle 2 at 85% straight was both very docile. Made Idle 1 85% and Idle 2 95%,still docile. I have more power in my MCPX.
What am I doing wrong? Perhaps my Low Gov mode should be HIGH? Or maybe no Gov and just Throttle curves? Or perhaps the CC80HV that I bought secondhand is CRAP? Everything else is new including servos, Motor, Airframe, AR7200BX and LIFE for Rx.Last edited by johnsandywhite; 27-01-2013, 04:47 PM.Been there and done that, but never stop learning.

I did what I thought was the sequence for the programming mode. Does that not take into account high and low throttle? Or do I have to put the Throttle Trim to full as I saw mentioned?Originally posted by vinny155 View PostBeen there and done that, but never stop learning.
