T-Rex 500 Info

[raptorheli2]

my kit is on its way. got the one and only one available at realraptors. just aswell i pre-ordered a long time ago.

i won't have servos for a while so i'll just need to build it and look at it. i only ordered the servos tonight so that will be 5-7 days i think.

on the subject if anyone wants a set of the align blades then i will be getting rid of them and not flying them.

cheers

Ade.....you were flying a 50, it's a lot bigger and a heli that you fly every week and know how it flies. This is a maiden of a small heli in the dark with no idea of how it flies on a very poor setup as we were running out of light and didn't have time to do it properly.

Hi

Just test flown/ hovered my 500 in the back garden, was very tempted to flip it etc but as this might take it out of the flood light and garden I thought better off it, should be giving it a work out tomorrow.

Seems good so far but not much you can tell in the dark.

i feel your pain but i'll let you into a little secret...shhhh.......i have another pre ordered kit that i'm POSSIBLY getting soon so if i do i won't be needing 2 and i emphasise IF, so someone can have it and just phone and pay for it.

cheers

I wanna go fly mine now but stuck at work

I set it up properly now, may have reduced the cyclics too much though but that can be changed at the field. Will be taking it for a spin at lunch today I hope.

We need more video Trev

[Sesame]

Yes should have thought ahead and taken the week off work LOL

[trvo]

Ash will bring the video camera today. I am planning on trying the 4200 6s pack that I've been using on my 600, should get me a 10 minute 3d flight, 15 of hovering about I guess

Trev

[raptorheli2]

are you trying both 2100 and 2200 rev packs trev? i'm debating which to stump for. i have 3x 2100's and 2x 2200's so do i get another 2100 or just more 2200's...decisons.

look forward to your findings on the batts.

cheers
