  • (Virtual) drinks on me!!

    Woohoo! My Trex 450 SEV2 should be delivered today! Track and Trace says it's on delivery round! Nipped home at lunchtime and left sticky note for postman to leave it with neighbour

    If it's there when I get home, I'll post some pics up (although I know you've all seen hundreds before no doubt, but I'm just a little excited)

          I'm no better, just be aware of the build fairy...

          I got my SE V2 just before xmas last year and opened the box to have a look at it, 2 hours later the thing was built it was 1am and I had an angry other half - all I can think was that maybe the build fairy had come and left me a working heli!

          Congrats, it's an awesome model and I love mine to bits - they fly on rails!


          Eddie, can't say I'm not just a wee bit jealous of the new 500 on your desk - feel free to post it up here if you decide you don't like it

              Looking forward to seeing the Heli Balders... You will have the training gear on it in no time and be hovering around before you know it!

                    As Tim says, double check EVERYTHING. Even the parts that are pre-assembled need taking apart and re-loctited. I learned the hard way. Two crashes and a couple hundred quid later (v-blades and 9257 tail servo cost the majority of that) both caused by pre-assembled parts coming apart. I think its pretty tight now! I can't stress this enough. When its built and the first few subsequent flights check the whole heli from from to back. Its worth it mate.

                      Have had the same happen to me although was spotted before things came completely apart.
                      Check everything.

                        thanks folks, it's coming pre-built and flight tested, but I will certainly be checking everything over and re-loctiting as necessary.
