T-Rex 500 Info

So they are..

From here

[Sesame]

missed that one LOL

[Ashley Davis]

I don't get it ..... why is £255 suddenly a good price?

£255 and ur going to fly it with no blades?
But £290 including blades is too expensive?

[marktigere1]

Didn't spot the no blades bit

Sorry for bringing into question an Align pricing point.

[marktigere1]

Actually, if this is a good price, Flying Hobby will sell it for the same price will they?

I doubt it.

[Ashley Davis]

sorry, didn't mean to upset / offend...... I was just really confused by the comments. Now you say you didn't spot the no blades bit it all makes sense.

Flying-Hobby will sell it for less because they haven't had to ship it half way round the world and pay import duty on it......although I really don't want to open the whole import versus UK prices debate as it's a pointless argument.

[marktigere1]

I really don't want to open the whole import versus UK prices debate as it's a pointless argument.

I agree.

Sorry Ash

if you aren't sure just wait two weeks and I'll have the review out, videos of me and Trev flying them etc etc
It's not like you guys will be short of info or videos to look at

As long as you stay 'honest' and don't get tempted to big it up in the hopes of being align's new best friend

[Ashley Davis]

I think you'll find I only big something up if it deserves it......check my site for comments on the 600XL motor as an example, I was the one telling the world not to buy it as it overheats, shaft snaps etc etc

[Symon]

I'm looking forward to some Ashley Davies motor tests for this thing

Checkout these stats from Align...

Edit: They've attached a little small for some reason (probably my fault ) so if you find it difficult to read << see here >>

[raptorheli2]

thats a nice little chart there. i will wait on ashley to test the 2100 and 2200 revo packs before i decide which way to go. i already have three 2100's so probably get 1 of those and another 2/4 2200's.

cheers

I'm looking forward to some Ashley Davies motor tests for this thing

I'm already set for this.....I have four motors waiting (already) to test in it. They are as follows:

stock Align 500L (actually, not got this one yet but it's in the kit )
Medusa 36-50-1600
Z-Power Z20A 1700kv
Hyperion 3019 (need to check the kv on this one)

[Symon]

Niiiice

[Ashley Davis]

hmm 3019-10 looks a little slow at 1000kv......I'll try it with a bigger pinion.
I could also give the Orbit 20-10 a bash and possibly the AXI 2826

Of all those motors my cash is on the Medusa kicking butt

[raptorheli2]

it's a safe bet the medusa will topple the ones mentioned i think. it's even safer a 500xl motor will be in the works right now.

cheers
