Its one of those, you just think we are being fan boys until you actually fly one

I tell you,i was buzzing on Saturday after flying it,i have swapped the Helijive for a Kosmik 160 as the Helijive was getting a bit hot on there with the Align 800MX.

Thats all setup so praying for a nice weekend

[ChrisB]

Sod it,just ordered the 5.5 from Agile-helicopter.cz.

£360 posted DHL 3 days

Dayum, you guys are making me want a 7.2. Not sure I could justify two 700s yet. Maybe next year.

I just got my Agile 5.5 (from Agile Heli UK) last week. It's a looker all right, but seems big for a 550.

Servos came today from RC711 and I'm still waiting for the ESC to come. Then I need to choose some batteries and an buy an ultra guard.

[ChrisB]

Im looking at the RJX HV servos from rc711,one of our members has bought 2 sets and they look brilliant,same as the BK ones which i believe RJX make anyway.

Going to 12s the 5.5 and might stretch it to a 600 will see

[Jamin_00]

That will be insane Chris. Its an animal on 6s lol.

[ChrisB]

How much of an animal,might try 6s first maybe

Supposed to be a stretch kit out any day.

[Jamin_00]

I would try it first if you got all the bits there??

My idea of insane might not be yours lol but its sweet!!

[ChrisB]

Yeh i can 6s it first for sure.

[Martind]

Done the 6s and 12s n the 5.5. 6s had loads of power with a 4025-1100 but harder on packs then the trex I had. 12s with a helidrive 4956-550 and hw70hv using zippy 2700mah is giving me the same flight times but its 100g heavier. I did here you can fit 570mm blades without modding but the stretch should be out this month

[ChrisB]

Yeh that stretch kit is whats drawing me,12s on 600 blades,run a fair few 12s 600s and loved them all

Just an update on the Czech Agile company,they are brilliant,the chap Fillip is really helpful and on the ball.

I cancelled my original order as i was after Alex Hawtins used,one which he swapped with a friend or else i was going to offer him much more than he was asking to secure it myself as it was a bargain.

But as that fell thru i reordered from Agile-helicopter.cz on Thurs eve and he posted DHL Friday and its now been thru Brussels and will be here Monday.

He is ordering me in the Agile 7.2 tail upgrade kit and i will be using him for any stuff Agile related i need in future.

So glad to see the Agile's taking off.. Literally. Best heli's it have owned, from build quality to flight characteristics.. Can't fly them enough

[ChrisB]

Just come back from a session with my 7.2 its easily one of the best helis ive ever flown,i dont know what it is about it but its just amazing to fly,so pin sharp accurate.

I know a lot of models are great fliers now but i judge mine by the post flight grin factor,and with the 7.2 its about as big a grin as i can manage

The only thing i want to do is swap out the Align 800 MX motor for a Kontronik one at some point.

[Jamin_00]

I've never been able to reason why it's so good either. For me it's just the whole package from looms to quality to flight characteristics. It's got the lot.

And as you say I always got a big grin afterwards and the guys always say they can tell I'm liking it as I fly it like no other!!
