Default RE: Help! Problems with T-Rex 450SA

Appreciate all of your input for me. Those videos from Finless were great! Wish I had watched them before I started building the T-REX. By the way, I went to the guys house on Saturday and sure enough they were able to correct the problem in just minutes. It was too windy to fly here on Saturday but the bird took it's maiden flight this morning. It flew terrific except something on the tail is sticking. I certainly wished I had bought the T-Rex 450 SE instead of the SA model. There is ALOT of plastic on the SA that is metal on the SE. Somthing on the tail slide bushing is hanging up and not being smooth.

Ron's advice as of this morning is to replace the plastic tail material with the nice alloy one from Align. More money. Horizon sells you the SA copter for only $200.00 but you then have to spend a TON more money modifying it so it flys correctly. The SE model is about $380.00 but needs little if no modifying.

Lesson to to be learned for the future.

Appreciate all you your help again.

Thanks.

Alan
