Align T-REX 600N 700N > OMG I LOVE this heli!

The best 50 I've flown or seen flown bar none. Just got mine broken in and fanged it good today. Holy crap this thing is ballistic with the Hyper and Align Pipe. No weird tendencies either just pure pleasure...

I have the sport and see 0 need to get the Pro to be honest. I just love this heli, darn impressive for a 50. It flies so well I am considering selling one of my 90's - I can see them becoming hangar queens now. It feels just so light in the air and point and shoot responsive.

I know I sound like I found religion here but it is truly better than I thought it would be. Makes my R50 feel like a pig - and I LOVE my R50! For heaven sake I think I'm in love. If you've been putting it off - don't - just bite the bullet and have some fun with possibly the best 50 ever made. I can't say enough positive things about this bird....enjoy.

I also love the heli but for different reasons. Mine decided to eat dirt today from about 30ft up on its side.

Usual shafts, boom and blades, broke one link, slight break in the base plate (No major), broken landing skid strut, bent flybar and and beaten up canopy.

Should have it back up in the air tomorrow but was really impressed at the strength of the heli. Will hopefully see what Jas is raving about tomorrow.

I was impressed too! I thought for sure the frame would be cracked somewhere but it wasn't. One tough bird for sure. The fact there was virtually no blade speed left and landing on grass helped but still amazing. Fly it like the SIM!!!

Jason, what is the weight differential between your raptor and 600n?

I was going to get a 600 sport but decided to snag an MA Razor.

May still throw my stuff on a sport kit over the winter...

Cheers

Nah. It's all just hype and BS by the Align fanboi's. The 600N is nothing but problems.

Glad you're loving it. Same here.

I'm lovin my 600 also

Went to the heli meet this year and there were 6 of them (out of 25ish) and 80% of the airtime , there was a 600 up there.

There was a young hotshot there ( full sponsored) just beating on his heli , crashed it twice ! Frames were perfect ! I figured for sure they would be toast after reading all the whining on the net about weak frames. His TT though was bent 90 degrees and a quick once back and forth snapped it clean off , so you know he didn't land lightly.

Very happy with mine , just need to figure out my dx7/hotstart problem (not to hijack) but has anyone had this problem ?

Plug in reg (duralite) and both orange lights glow , but the rx isn't locked in yet. Goes to a partial throttle setting. I know your thinking .. reset your failsafe's. Well i have them set. If i get it up and running then turn off tx it will goto low setting like it should. Best way to describe is a i have another 'non communication - failsafe setting' that has some throttle to it = hotstart. Powering off and re-powering is the fix.

What goes up will come down.... one way or another !

Jason, My nipples are getting hard just reading you post (LOL). So far in Rotorua we have 2 flyers with 600E's and they rave about them. Our first 600N Pro (YS50/Funtec pipe) will be flown for the first time today, so it will be interesting to see how it goes. When my Calibers go on TradeMe, i will be joining the "for Now" 600 club. Cheers Stu.

Thanks guys, those of you that have them know what I'm on about - those that don't have theirs yet soon will. I need to get a good scale and weigh the R50 vs. the 600N. They may be close in weight - I'm not sure but I can tell you that the 600 feels MUCH lighter in the air.

Even with the Kasama head the R50 seems to have some phasing issues to be fair and with it I have to correct quite heavily (with Aileron) during say tic-toc's whereas with the 600N it goes where it's told with very few corrections required. It makes me LOOK like a better pilot I think and I am also running 1.5 deg more collective pitch on the 600 too which means the pops and stops are pretty scary quick.

I had to quicken my reflexes to keep up with the 600 to be honest. I was behind the heli at first but now I love it. What fun! I can see this becoming the heli I fly most often very quickly. I really enjoy all my helis for different reasons but I mostly like to just fly hard and not worry too much about the cost if I deck it. The 600 allows this without sacrificing in the performance department.

Glad I got 2 of them, I'd be gutted if I crashed one and didn't have another to pick up and fly.

BTW - this is the first MultiGov I have tried and not only is it dead easy to setup it holds the headspeed better than any other governor I've flown. The 9451 I have on the throttle easily keeps up with the 9351's on the swash.

I know exactly where your coming from!
I was a raptor 50 fan through and through for 3 years,
My raptor committed suicide for no reason a while back, got a 600N sport and put on all the kit of my rappy (Hyper, spectrum, 9451's @ 6v, 720/8900) and all i can say is Whoooh!

I was not prepared for that heli though!

Its just so much sharper, precise, faster and I'm STILL trying to get up to speed on this heli!!!
Seems to pull so much harder and faster than my old rappy...

I thinks I'm in love..

Shame i have to go to uni in a couple of weeks...
I'll have to pick up my old hobby from collage haha...
But there'll always be a place for this heli when i'm home..
Might even have to get a 450SE for uni (now that i CAN nail to the floor haha)

I'm using the 3Dx Fan and Canopy Standoffs, an extra frame spacer and Infinavations. Flies sweeeeet!!! I can run the engine quite a bit leaner than the Rappy with no overheating too.

Damn you Align. This heli is so much fun it is making me want to sell off half my fleet. Plus the price of this kit means you can almost fly without fear.
