T-REX 500 3D Flight

Stock T-REX 500, Futaba 9257 servos on cyclic, Hitec 2100 Gyro combo and an Align 6s 2500 25C pack.

Tail combo holds and feels OK for the money but better is available. The 9257 cyclic swap lowered my cyclic and collective travel and I made these test videos in haste before I realized.

Thanks guys. The pilot in the video is me Chris Harmon. If you have to own any one machine I would make sure it's a T-REX 500. Smaller machines are too unstable and bigger ones begin to cost a lot but don't really offer any performance advantages. I have also flown other 500 sized machines and this one just has something about it.

Dude, seriously, how did you learn to fly like this? Did you practise on the SIM every night? How long have you flown for to fly like this? I am getting so frustrated. Every time I take the heli out I frikken crash it. I am spending all my time (and money) repairing the damn thing. Seems like there is so much downtime in this hobby. I can sport fly pretty well, but every time I try a 3d manoeuvre, BOOM, I crash. It's nothing like the SIM in real life. TELL ME!!!

@ChrisHarmon1 smaller helis are nice and portable like the rave 450 i stick two in a case and my transmitter and charger in another go anywhere and 90s are just too fun to fly super stable, power, ext...... i figure get all sizes. 500s dont do nearly as well as a 50 or a 90 in wind and 90s if one is a good enough pilot can fly in 30mph winds.

Still to this day one if not my favorite Trex 500 flights I've seen..Been flying a while now myself and although I have gotten fairly good I still love this guy's style and can get many ideas to incorporate into my own routines. The rythem and placement of his piro flips towards the end of the flight where they gradually get faster is really nice. I've seen many pro's that can't produce a flight this well constructed.
