T-Rex 500 Info

[Guest]

the one that came with my SE V2 puffed while sat on my shelf, wasn't even using it. I've not heard of others that did this but I thought it was pretty impressive

I've been moaning about mine but yours is going to be really hard to beat

yes, the Revo 2100s are very small and over 30g lighter per cell than an average 2100.

I see - sorry I was thinking of 2170 FP's Thats why they fit....

[Ashley Davis]

yeah, they are a touch larger and I'd be suprised if you could squeeze them in.....and then they really would be too heavy.

[TrexMADuk]

Would also be interesting to see what 4 and 5cell would be like with the different gears when they are available....

[Ashley Davis]

4 cells I'm pretty sure will push the amps very high, particularly for 3D.

5 cells is interesting as we fall into very familiar 3200mAh territory. Lots of brands have solutions here. One thing that might be interesting is a 5 cell Revo 4200. Loosing one whole cell but keeping the capacity would put it into very interesting territory.

are Aurora looking into this ?my rex is on its way i hope and Im unsure what packs to go for so far Im liking Trevs 4200 seems to work, but i would like to see 3000/3500 sizes

yeah, there's some serious background activity going on BUT both Trev and I have busted heli's right now.......although it seems Trev may get his back in the air with a little help from me and some new blades from Motors & Rotors.

[TrexMADuk]

Yeah tell me about it - I'm having to wait till Wednesday before I can get some blades from my local RJX distributor who has some great 425's for not a lot of £'s

Steven gerrard flying the 500 with the new align 2500 6s packs.

I reckon he could have done more tic tocs and flips in that flight

Flight time 3:44......which I think adds weight to the 2500 is too small debate.

Hmmm, if you're talking about the £18 GRP ones and want to do 3d then forget them, I have a pair and everyone on Sunday compared them to the old shatterproof rulers you had at school, they're not good but they were the only ones I could get hold of. Motors and Rotors now have the SABs in stock and I have a couple of pairs en route.

BTW Ash, I could donate some parts if you are really stuck as I'm grounded with a dislocated finger

[Ashley Davis]

Thomas, you're a bloody star. The thanks button isn't big enough for this one.

[mattie-lodge]

What a kind jesture.

Nice one Thomas

[trvo]

Nice one Thomas! Thanks
