  • So who's put a deposit down for 600N Pro?

    I have, really excited about this heli

    Thought about waiting for the G10, belt driven version but at the end of the day impatience got the better of me

    My current 50 fleet of 2 Raptor 50's are getting a bit tired and sad, so it's time for out with the old and in with the new.

    The Raptors have served me well but the design is just too old hat now, the prospect of up to +-14 degrees pitch in a nitro 50 really appeals to me . Also like my torque tube drives on the Synergy and Vibe. I guess if I end up constantly breaking it I will revert back to a belt drive.

    What is peoples experience with the TT drive on the 600 electric?

    The TT drive works well although some have reported damage to gears this has been due to heavy landings, often tail first . The TT certainly has less drag than the belt and auto performance is improved although it's pretty good with the belt! There have been a few cases of 600's with the TT throwing the tail boom out and loosing mesh on the shaft drive, the suggested fix is to drill through the plastic case at the front and fit a small self tapper.

    You're right about the Raptor, after flying the 600 for a while you can easily see how much better the 600's head is than the Raptor, it really is much overdue for a redesign, not just a longer boom and a couple of control link. I have the Kasama head on my E550 and it makes a world of difference, the Raptor is more agile but smoother too, much more 600 like.

      My R50T has a Kasama head running +/-14 and it makes a world of difference, I often fly a friends Trex600 and I am going to get a Trex600N but I am not sure if I want one of the first ones or see if there are any problems that need sort as there is normally on a new product of any sort.

      I am very tempted at the moment to reserve one and may phone up today to place a deposit.

      I did put a Trex head in a R50T for an experiment but could not get more than +/- 9 due to not being able to use the Trex swash, washout and base.

      I think only about 20%-30% of my R50T is still TT

        I don't think there will be any problems with the 600N as its been proven with the 600E, the only thing iv heard bad was the BEC not be able to handle the fast servos apart from that its a solid proven machine,
        I will get my self one soon but just not yet, not of choice but of £££

          Having had a first batch Synergy, I'm well aware of the possible pitfalls of having a heli from the first production run.

          But I honestly believe with Aligns track record, problems will be minor and will be resolved quickly

            But there was never a elec version with the same parts and almost the same frame, the N9 was a completely new model unknown model to the market, the 600N is a converted 600E not much of a difference

                          Hi

                          I have put a deposit on a fair few of them:-)
                          In fact it's the largest single order of kits we have ever placed by a fair margin.
