Synergy E7 Release

[Zeeflyboy]

Looks great to me...

The canopy is dull, granted, but that is easy to remedy.

The heli itself I like a lot... Nicely designed, good servo layout etc. I just ordered a 600 EFL Pro, but now am half wishing I had thought about this one! More expensive for sure, but looks like a seriously quality bit of kit.

I like the carbon arms - I have a similar setup on my big Katana... I might try out such a setup for my Rex when it comes.

Great looking heli!
Got a couple of questions, if you don't mind.
Where is CGY750 sensor mounted, under the gyro tray?
What servos are you using?
I am going to build mine as E7, will 2x6s 4300mAh lipos work?

Hi Michal,

The CGY750 sensor is mounted below the tail servo on the sensor mounting plate, this will work for anything with a remote sensor like the CGY750 and standard size V-Bar etc.. If you are using an all in one unit like the Mini V-Bar/TotalG/BeastX etc... then it will be able to mount on the upper radio plate which is where i have chosen to mount the CGY750 Control Box as this allows more direct connection of all servos etc...

On my E6 i am using the Futaba BLS451's on the cyclic and Futaba BLS251 on the tail.

With batteries you have a wide spread and varied option but with 2x 6S 4300mah lipo's it should hit the sweet spot for weight/flight time.

With packs that are approx 3850mah @ 2150 yields a 4 minute flight. Very light and aggressive.
With packs that are approx 5000 mah @ 2150 yields 5 1/2 + minutes. Performance is great but not as aggressive as 3850 packs.

Do like the look of the E7.

Is there a parts price list about?

Parts should be comparable to the N5C parts as alot of the parts are taken from the N5c, Tail assembly, boom, belt etc.. same with the head down to the swash, this is all N5C. The only difference in the head is the grips as these have been modified to use bushings with the blade bolts as you can build the E7 as an E7 (700 Class) or E6 (600 Class) so the bushings allow you to use either 4mm or 5mm bolts.

I've not seen a parts list for the E6/7 specific parts just yet but i would'nt except the consumable crash parts to be any different to the N5c parts prices (I.e. Main Shaft etc..).

Thanks a lot for you answers, I'll be using CGY750 on mine and most likely optipower 4300 (maybe a pair of 5000 for some relaxed big sky flying).
Can't wait for this heli .

[anjki]

Looks like mine will be with me tommorow.Thanks to Rodger at climbout for such quick delivery.
This one will be built as an E6 to start with,and a Scorpion 450 kv motor.
Will keep you posted with details over the next couple of days.

£35 for a maingear!

Helical main gear 116T SYN-310-116 - Synergy Spares Synergy E7/E6 - ALIGN-TREX.co.uk

£25 for a blade grip (or is that for both?!)

FBL main blade grip SYN-520-514 - Flybarless kits and parts Synergy flybarless parts - ALIGN-TREX.co.uk

Crazy!

[waveydavey]

The blade grip is each Paul, although in fairness the control arms do come in a pair. So thats £26 each for the blade grips and £28 for a pair of control arms. They look really nice and shiny though. You can guarantee that they fly well too.

Paul

The main gear is machined delrin and is Helical so it is very expensive to manufacture, example Rave ENV Helical main gear is £40 so the synergy one is cheaper and the blade grip arms are very durable.
I think if you saw a machine you would be impressed but to be honest if all you want to pay for is Align price then thats all you will get, Synergy is not competiting against Align Pricing, and synergy pricing is the same as the USA just with VAT added on top. I suspose its one of those things you pay your money and you take your choice bit like the Vbar over the BeastX ! is it really worth double the price by the time you upgrade the software ! only you can decide that. Anyway food for thought.

[DaveG]

In all fairness i think the main gear is quite reasonable considering it's CNC machined Delrin and not moulded plastic!! A moulding machine can spit these things out by the 100's and a fraction of the cost of a machined gear which is done slower but has the added advantage of being much much stronger!!

It's only the same as the gear from the Rave ENV @ £39: Fast Lad Performance

The blade grips look like they are single from the photo/description but again, i don't think they are too bad Especially if you look at something like a Kasama grip which is £41 EACH!!!!!


EDIT: Just be glad you don't own a Hirobo SDX!! £54!!!!
