Very beautiful machine. Do you still have it? Im really debating between the 550efl and the 600efl. By looking at this, size wise....its not much smaller than the 600.
sounds like your pinion gear mesh is not right . better double check it. That heli is awesome. I have a 500esp and that 550 3G is my next step. Good luck with it. I love the size thanks for sharing............
Here is a trick to find out if your tail is reacting correctly on the bench. Unplug motor for safety,
Take take one tail blades and fold it 90* to the blade grip so its parallel to the boom. Do this with the top tail blade (meaning the one that comes out of the grip at 12 oclock). Now by hand turn the heli, the tip of the tail blade should point in the same direction as the nose as you turn the heli right and left. If its not, then reverse.
Thanks, man. I got lucky. If I'd really tried moving her around at all, I'm sure I would have ended up crashing. For battery packs, I'm using Hyperion 6S 5000mAh 45Cs. They're about the size of a brick. :)
From the B400 to the Trex 550? Now that's going for it! Thanks for the clip. I'd really love to own one of these but it's a bit too expensive right now.

Have the heli still?

[EDIT] I mistyped that. As you turn the heli left, the blade would point right (to compensate for the left turn).

Could have been an expensive pile of crumpled parts, avoided destruction luckily...fly on.

Always, always check cyclic direction and tail(nose) direction BEFORE you lift off!!
