[macdaddy1600]

flip that heli

[randomvideosagain]

pro hover!

[saitoking]

Thanks but I am just a beginner still trying to learn to fly these things hehe. Charles

[macdaddy1600]

nice hover 

[oysterlicker]

Man that was a fantastic steady hover at such height. Not easy with that rotor wash.

[saitoking]

Thanks man that was 2 years ago and I still suck but thanks anyway hehe

[blackhawk438]

@saitoking They look great! Next year I will buy one. I really want a good durable heli

[saitoking]

Some are cheaper but the Align brand has always held up nice. and you can get parts from your LHS

[niterazor]

cool... I get mine next week! :)

[saitoking]

Thanks, do a build video I did one.

[niterazor]

@saitoking hey... thanks for the idea.

I have built the 450, and never thought to do a vid. on it -

- the 500, for sure :)

[pilotemtnils]

Just purchased and putting the heli together...wished you lived near me!!! :)

[saitoking]

me too, I just took a little flight in the backyard this evening it was great. I f you have any question let me know. My 500 is my best flying heli.

[AB109GIO]

Excellent control, good flight, congratulations.

[saitoking]

Thanks for watching still practicing maybe I will how to fly someday lol.

[saitoking]

Don't really care what you like sorry, I recorded the music at my studio and I play on it and engineered it. At least you can hear the heli too not just the music like on some videos.

[bassax7045]

went to get the 450 pro today ,but came home with the same baby 500CF AND 6EX FUTABA,,have to get some decent blades though ,since my stock were plastic rotorblades,,hope she flies as well as yours

[saitoking]

Sweet, are you going to do a video on the maiden?

[bassax7045]

yeah if i can find a working camera and cameraman,,have to finnish the build first and then make many movies this year ,but most important enjoy flying,,SHE IS SO BIG :-)

[saitoking]

The only problem I had is when it got cold outside the belt in the boom would build up ESD and the tail would glitch. Torque tube fixed that.

[TheColt1911]

great job !

this guy looks like Bolo Yeung :)

coool ^^

[saitoking]

Thanks The Colt1911 What a great pistol. I have a Trex 600ESP too that I have been trying to fly. this was a few years ago. Thanks for watching

[TheColt1911]

No problem ^^ . But you look exactly like him .

At the beginning of this year , I started to fly an Innovator MD530 .. It´s getting better , but I´m only a beginner . In the summer I want to train more .

[saitoking]

Bolo is one bad ass dude I wish hehe

[rodcre8s]

Great job man! nice backyard hovering.

[saitoking]

Thanks man, that was 2 years ago still flying not to much better hehe thanks for watching.

[seanlee74]

Nice smooth flight dude. would you know the difference between the CF and the ESP I'm gonna order one this week but dont know which model to order? cheers bruv.

[saitoking]

ESP the belt on the CF causes EDF and make the tail glitch, only when it is cold out. It really sucked the first time I pulled it up and the tail started going crazy I tried all the tricks out there and none worked tell got the torque tube.

[rodcre8s]

ESP has metal head and tail along with a TT (Torque Tube). If you are new to choppers get the CF then upgrade parts. The belt drive electrostatic build up can be a problem, but Silicone spray virtually eliminates the problem. (spraying silicon spray in the tail tube). Don't use WD40. WD 40 gums up and you will suffer in the long run. Saitoking is right the static build up WILL wipe out your electrics (sooner or later).

[seanlee74]

@rodcre8s Hey man thanks for the reply I need all the help I can get and heli know how is thin on the ground around here. I already ordered my 500 esp but I'll practice on a little twister storm 3d until I'm a little better. thanks again. Sean

[crf250r111]

very nice flying great job

[saitoking]

Thanks. It seems to take me awhile to learn how to fly these helis but I am still trying 2 years now.lol

[scottmetze]

Great job!

[GTOsixOhh]

beautiful bird! jus built a 450 v2 love it.. keep flying man

[scorpionvice12]

i was wondering how do those hs82 hold up in the trex500 right

[saitoking]

Their still on my Trex and working just as they were when I put them in, a year and a half ago. I have had to put one gear set in after a crash. Cheers

[LYono22]

cool heli....bad music.

[Helipro3218]

What reciever are you using.

[saitoking]

Futaba 607 old and the 617 new with T7C and T6EX Thanks for watching Charles

[lvl100inrune]

wow cool helicopter and nice flying skills by not touching the ground ;)

[jhunmonaco]

hi your heli trex 500  very nice and very papular in the word, but dont mind the all comments of your heli do what you want. the important you have heli and you injoy to fly and after few months you do some 3D coming soon

[saitoking]

Thanks I had only been flying 4 months and just got this heli the beginning of May. Charles

[EddyHil]

Nice flying man, AWESOME heli, check out my 450 :)

[tw28st]

any idea what weight it will lift ie tiny camera

[offshore911]

perfect hover...do u think, the trex 500 is a good heli for greenhorns? ive got the belt cp but i want a bigger heli like the 500 or 600...

i searched for it on ebay/germany and found a ready to fly align 600 for 1950€/2500dollars....

[saitoking]

Thanks, Yes I got this heli 5 months from getting my first ccpm heli but when you wreak it's going to cost you a lot more than a 450. Charles

[freestylekiwi01]

That was excellent!!!!!! cheers from new zealand....

[saitoking]

Thanks for the nice comments. Charles

[JaSeY963]

You have a spot or mark on your camera lens.

[0n3m1s1s0]

[besthobbie]

Great, controlled flying...

[z3ro642]

Saitoking, way to go.

[strueblood]
