Default T-rex 600 and Bell 222

Has anyone set up the TT90 with the funkey Bell 222? Just looking for some feed on both, for fits and performance. I'm looking at the OS .91SX-H engine for power. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have a century jet ranger on my trex 600e. I have a problem with it, connected the BEC everything was fine using specktrum 2.4ghz AR6200 in the heli and DX6i.
Then a few mins ago, I plugged it spun up for some testing 1 blade gave me negative pitch for some reason and now my BEC doesnt want to turn on, tried multiple
batteries and no luck!, im not sure what happened with it. never had this problem before.

Skl1cent,

Sorry for your luck and I can't give advise as I am new to heli's. I did make up my mind and purchsed the T-600 Super Nitro Pro with a Bell 222 fuse. I am most impressed with the quality of the kit and the fuse as well. The Funkey Fuse is a work of art. At first the building intimidated me until I got into it. Going well so far.

Heli is built with 9252's per a friends advise. JR770 Gyro and O.S. Hyper. This is my first heli build and I never flown. Plan on spending time over the winter on the sim and then with instructor next spring. I will next fit the fuse to the frame work, but it will not be re-installed until I have most likely made multiple repairs from the dreaded crashes that I will encounter over the learning process.[X(]

I think that you will find flying your new machine in 3D cofiguration will be somewhat frustrating, 3D is very touchy on control inputs. To soften this effect use some expo in your radio setup because scale birds are soft around the middle and therefore a bit more forgiving to the beginner. I applaud your idea to build your first helo since this will give you a better understanding of the mechanics and how they function. I, myself, made the common mistake of starting with an RTF and so did a lot of dirt diving because I did not understand the mechanics involved very well. I have since corrected that mistake and built two of my own.

I like the fuse that you have chosen.

This is my latest project. TT Agusta Koala, lacking time and space ,It took me seven month
to complete. Titan mechanic with OS50 Hyper, HT 645 servos, GY401 w/9254, DX7. Nav
lights, 600mm rotor blades. Very stable flight, looks neat in the air.[img][/img]

That looks good. I like the tail rotor flip and the new paint job.
