600 x build tips

[umox]

Hi guys I'm going to start my build very soon have finally aquired all the bits needed just need to find the time now lol.

Anyone have any hint and tips to make the build go more smoothly or is it a case of read read read and pile through the manual.

Cheers

P.s is the 600x not a common machine as this sub catergory is basically empty.

I think you have answered your own question.

Just take your time and don't rush things , make sure things fit before using thread lock. And as you said read he manual and do it in the order it says etc . Apart from that have fun and enjoy the build.
When you come to install the electrics do take care in were you place wires etc and like me you may do this twice as the second time often neater . coming
If in doubt just ask and Im sure somebody will help you !

Pile through the manual - it's well written and the build is fairly simple! The 600X is obstensibly the same as the 550X but with a longer boom + different gearing for a 12S setup. It's an incredibly simple build, but if you want a few tips, check out "Zoomtt's" 550X build vids that'll walk you through it ..

And no, the 550x and 600x are not common helis. They are however very under-rated as many associated Blade with micro helis only. Shame really, because they're really good machines. The 550x is my go-to heli for everyday flying.

I did think it's strange as I have a few blades of varying size and I'm pleased with each one, a club member has a 500x and it is normally always in his selection of helis he brings to the field whenever we go flying.

I have purchased a few kits on my recent trip aboard with the intent of keeping one and selling a few, could not resist at the price they had them on offer hopefully I'll be able to shift em otherwise I've got enough spares to cope with the inevitable dumb thumb moments!
