Default RE: T-Rex?????

I use the 240 gyro in both my heli's I just cannot see paying the extra for the 401 when the 240 works great as for the Aline it looks suspiciously like the Zoom Gyro which I have tried and is junk.As for the 1320 it would work but would not last as long but I have found a battery that I am going to go to that from what I have heard is better and cheaper look here http://www.maxamps.com/index.html?lmd=38405.062442 that 2250 mah battery is more power than the TP and is a lot cheaper plus if you join their web site the price goes to around $52.00 or so and it cost nothing to join.This will be the next one I will buy and they said that they would build me a 3S3P with 6750 Mah for around 180.00 with individual taps on the battery and that is better than the 209.00 I paid for my TP 3S3P with only 6000MAH.The cells that maxamps uses are the same ones that Tanic uses in their packs so they have to be good.As for the motor the Aline 400 works great so you really don't need to sink a lot of money into a motor unless you want to it is great for regular flying you see I am not into cutting the grass with my Heli's rotors but if that is your thing then you should look into a hacker motor.As for repair cost the Trex is the best most repairs will cost at the most $20.00 and some less than that unless you really do it in and have to replace the complete thing then it would be around $175.00 from HiFi RC.com.Also I would say that you look into a Berg RX for the heli since I went to Berg from hitec it is a difference of night and day with the Berg there have been no glitching or signal problems at all the Berg is well worth the extra money.If you have any other questions feel free to email me directly and I will try to help you out.
