TRex 600 3G FBL Maiden

[serpent887]

One of the first 600 3G kits in the country. http://www.fast-lad.co.uk/store/t-re...pn-p-9505.html

Built it last week, grounded owing to bad weather but today managed a maiden flight, this is what I think

What's the differance then?
Is it a 600 Le with 3g head and electronics?
Which engine are you using. Sorry see it now
I have a nsp with flybarless running a 55 and it scares the crap out of me
every thing is so big and fast
well done

Yes as you say it's an LE with a FBL head and electronics and is basically the new consolidated 600 kit.

I am familiar with the VBar system and I bought this as a comparison, actually I like it alot: it is so easy to set up and it flies great, I am really impressed.

Fitted with an OS55Hyper...wicked fun can't wait for tomorrow..

What sort of pitch and Gain are you running ?
I ran plus and minus 12 and 11 on cyclic
I have turned the gain down to about 11 o'clock on the elevator
I think I will try different blades next time
still using a old align set think they called the C's the ones with the little black line.
Used these as I didn't want to break D's or Radix

Also it felt more unstable then a flybar? It was windy
thanks

They were the original D's Paul before they re did the design.
You think the 600 is mental, you want to try the 700, it rocks

[serpent887]

11 degree collective and 10 degree cyclic.
Gains around 10 o'clock but I want to increase this with more time, very slight "wiggle" in hover but not a show stopper. (I think it might be owing to a small vibration?).

Stock Align blades.

Quite windy today but as maidens go...this was a good one...very happy.

I wanted to have it as a comparison with VBar which is great - albeit a tad complex to configure; 3G a proper no brainer...really fantastic

You're gonna love it! Just follow the instructions and then set the gains to 12 o'clock, you'll be good-to-go.
