Following the success of Align's T-Rex 450 mini helis, they have jumped into the 600mm blade size electric arena with T-Rex 600. And to cater to the IC flyers, they have just released a nitro version of the T-Rex600 called T-Rex600N. Here are some of photos of the build.

Along with the manual, these photos should help to clear up any questions during the build.

Actually those photos were taken from a build thread over on Align's forum. I do believe they are going to be available here any day now.
The headertankless setup was discussed a few times over at another forum. Conclusion is Jason Krause did something magical to make it work.

yeah I am with you. I am an electric only flyer. But I would suspect this glow heli would sell a lot more compared to electric simply due to the existing glow population. I'd suspect this to replace the Raptor series as the most popular choice due to low cost and performance.
OS even OEM their creme of the crop 50 Hyper engine for Align. Yes this is a genuine OS engine. Oh and that glow driver / BEC combo will be an accesssory they sell soon. |

Im gonna have to make a phone call to Mr. JK and find out the skinny on all this.... I know a little, but not nearly enough.... I might just have to put another 50 size in the quiver...

Hi All,
I got one not so long ago and for a first time builder of a heli (infact the first time i have built anything) it was all over in 2 days i got it the thursday night finished on saturday night. The only thing is that the instructions werent that clear on somethings but i overcame this with a tiny bit of thought. |
