    I have been thinking of taking a punt on one of these for a while, I think the 500 is a great size heli. What setup do you run with it Graham and nice flying

        That was using a zippy 2650mah lipo running a Turnigy 1800KV 500 Size Motor and a Turnigy 85A 2-6S ESC w/ 5A BEC. with a Spartan DS760.
        I've also got a Turnigy 3000mah pack that I've not really pushed much yet, so will have to see how that goes.

        This thing may be a clone, but as far as I'm concerned it flies like a dream

            I know, that thing chases me everywhere . You'd think it was a fingerprint on the lens but its been cleaned over and over, so can only assume its a fault on the sensor plate thingy, or whatever its called

                  Well, the autofocus works some of the time anyway

                  I forgot to warn you about the gratuitous zooming, I was not used to the
                  zoom lever on there.

                  I like the travelling forward flip


                  ---just to add, I am also loving my 500. It's the basic silver frame version, belt drive tail, stock Align airframe,
                  Align DS510s on the swash and DS650 on the tail, Turnigy 85 amp ESC, motor is a 1600kv of unknown brand
                  but works great, Turnigy 6s 2650mah Lipos, white 3D Pro carbons from Hobbyking. The only thing I have
                  changed is the tail blades to KBDD and I think they are a bit better than the stock blades as I
                  am not running a crazy headspeed.

                    I think it's cloaking device needs recalibrating ... do these aliens know nothing??
