Trex 550e v2 up and running!

[sunny_manku1985]

Woohoo! All done finally, just got my first lipo today and managed to setup my speed controller. Now the heli is all setup ready to go! Woohoo! Gona drop it off to mikes models in the morning to give it the once over and check my setup and build etc. Should have my first flight on the weekend if the weathers good. Can't wait! :-)

No had a trex 450 xl and a raptor 30 before hand. Now just a msr and this.

oh ok. just wondered as i have been thinking about getting a 550 as well as i've always wanted to get one but i'll have to sell my 450pro... and just thinking whether it's an ok idea to just have the 550 on its own with no backup

what's your skill level like?

[sunny_manku1985]

Erm, on the simulator Im pretty good!lol. Can do inverted hovers etc. But in real life never really had the gutted to do more then circits and nose in. Was hoping it would be ready for the weekend but blow my speed controller and rudder servo last night due to a stupid mistake!lol. (see other post)
