Quality of Align products

[tourerjim]

Tourerjim, as Trevo rightly said, it's the Yanks I don't like.

I fly Align machines, and while they have their share of issue, just like every other heli on the market, they are great machines, at a reasonable cost.

I agree Im happy with my fleet although I've had probs along the way so sticking with Align, I just missed read the post but thats me I often do!

To be fair to Align, I guess I should admit that I've got some T-rex 450 (V2?) fly-bar rods on my Outrage G5s. They're much better made than the Outrage ones - actually straight (!!), and seem more precise with a machined finish. This seems to be a common upgrade.

I've had a few bearings fail on the G5s (main & tail thrust), plus the main one-way bearing. (Possibly down to cack-handedness on my part, but who knows ?)

So I can't really be that smug and superior. Well, except for the superior Outrage engineering design and those Align cheesium cross-head screws...
