Align Trex 500 CF build and first hover test

[SupRec]

I had some problems with my brushless motor... I fixed it buying the two lil bearings inside of the motor's case.

Don't forget to lubricate yours every 10 flights.

Don't fly if you listen some strange noise like a whistle or something like that.

I lost power in the main rotor and I needed to do a autorotation fast...

Aways check out your equipment before flying.

[saitoking]

How long did you have yours before your bearing went out?

[SupRec]

About seven months ...

And nice video btw.

lol nice one mate hope you been enjoying them :D what i meant was after flying this heli for a while hows it coping? have you had any probs i should look out for? just finished mine :D vid 101 is up :D

[saitoking]

Had a problem with the tail bouncing around a bit, just had to up my throttle curves. Haven't had any of the problems people are talking about on other forums, like static discharge or glitches I am using a T7C 2.4GHz. Still trying to learn how to fly without crashing lol Charles

[spillage1313]

hi got b400 which is suffering lack of hold on gyro - tends to skit around gain is down and gyro settiing on dx6i ok - could it be to lower throttle curves not giving enogh speed???

thanks john

[saitoking]

HAVE YOU GOT YOUR HEADING AND RATE SETUP IN YOUR DX6i? tRY TURNING YOU RATE UP SOME A LITTLE AT A TIME . WHAT ARE YOU t CURVES? sTOCK?

[JaSeY963]

Nice video and cool hover. Hopefully can get a Trex 450 SE V2 once day, also the TREX 600 is very interesting hehe!

[saitoking]

Thanks for watching. A Trex 600 does sound interesting lol Charles

[fucker5157]

Made In Taiwan

So sweet!

[z3ro642]

I just started building my second 500 last night. I also ate cookies during the process.

[saitoking]

Lol You need to make more videos with your helis I watched your Trex crash and hola hoop videos. Tanks for watching.See ya Charles

[iecabus]

Nice, i just brought a trex 450S for my Augusta fuselage. :)

[saitoking]

I think scale is what I like the most. Much more fun to watch. I still am going to get a scale fuse. for my HBKII. Can't wait to see your new heli Later Charles

[iecabus]

Hey mate, i really would not bother getting a scale fuselage for the King 2, it does not handle the extra weight very well also the fuselages fit terribly! Loads of mods required! Use a T-rex 450, much better. :)

[saitoking]

Thanks for the info.

[N3766C]

woooww!!

[saitoking]

Is that good or bad?lol Charles

[N3766C]

good!!

[mrhelichopper]

Nice video, well done on the build and the video.

[saitoking]

I watched her build video first, back when I subscribed to your site. You two are too cool. Your auto's on the beach were unreal. see ya Charles

[mrhelichopper]

Thanks saitoking, I will try to get some more rc videos done this summer.

[gator966]

Very nice. How long did it take you to build it?

[saitoking]

I guess you didn't watch the whole video lol. It took 10+ hours to build it and a few more to set the radio up, epa's, expo's, gyro trim servo rev. trims.The kit was easy to put together everything fit together as it should. CAD drawing were easy to see and follow.I built it over a three day period. Later Charles

[joehandsome99]

Thats a great looking heli. I cant wait to see some forward flight with it. Thanks for sharing. *****

[saitoking]

I can't wait to see some forward flight myself. lol Maybe this weekend going to San Marcos hope the weather is good. Later Charles

[iecabus]

Nice looking heli there. Congratulations joining the T-rex owners club. They are just aweful flying machines. I have the 450XL and thinking of upping to a 500 and 600n.
