  • Flying the T-Rex SE V2

    Well, flew it today all I can say is AWESOME

    Dragonus will be on the shelf for a bit, T-Rex SE V2 absolutely kills it.

    I was doing side on tic tocs in a strong tail wind and I swear it was doing them nicer than my 600. Well pleased

    One thing though, I'm not convinced by the kit tail blades, I'll be swapping a set of carbons onto mine, tail was a bit loose under high torque.

      found my belt had stretched a bit after the first couple of flights, probably wasn't helping, will have a bit more time on the stock blades before deciding on swapping them out.

        Aint flown mine yet but that is the sort of comment i was hoping for

        Again,i challenge anybody to say Align are knocking crap out because any body who thinks they are doing that are infact just talking it

        If that makes sense


        Ash

        Whats the new motor like please?

        Cheers

              new motor seems pretty gutsy, haven't had enough time on it yet to really make an assesment. It certainly wasn't lacking power.

                I have to say the head and tail on this model (the important bits) are absolutely top notch, bearings everywhere, and the main gear is actually round and runs true. The blades in the kit are also very good, the lipo seems to have a lot of punch as well....we will see how long it lasts.

                      I assume the "absolutely kills it" is tongue in cheek? If not, I need to get my hands on one, because if thats not an exaggeration, kit manufacturers may as well pack up and go home as the holy grail of RC heli flight has now been found.

                          Well put, That's about the size of it!

                          If you take into account spares availablity/cost, easy of build/rebuild, overal design and value then it is very hard to beat Align which is exactly why we got involved with them.

                          All models have their good and bad points but Align are always the quickest to act on any bad points so unsuprisingly they have come a long way in a short time.

                          Can't help feeling they are about to do the same to the glow market:-)

                          Cheers

                            Dont tell Ade that

                            only joking,,there is no doubt they are a force to be reckoned with but other companies will hopefully accept the challenge so we as the end user have a selection of good products to spend all our spare cash on

                            Heres my newest Align model so far
