battlercon,

When can we get the G10 frames? and how much would it cost? I just purchased a T600 alluminum frame (barebones) and no servos yet :mrgreen: This is going to be a perfect upgrade for me, and what servos do you recommend? Is there a Metal Mini Digi Servos that I can use w/your frame?

Thanks,
Tomie

One thing that would be nice is a bearing support for the end of the motor shaft.

Is the CF much lighter than the g10 version?

BOOGIE · 12-21-2006, 12:09 PM

Hay Finless where do you get the 8S 3700 packs? Are is it 3 4s 3700 packs?

king kong · 12-21-2006, 12:19 PM

i believe that the 8s packs aren't avaliable yet. I have a couple 8s brick packs, and a couple 4s packs doubled up. no difference in performance or anything

I will look at that as an optional part
This is my "guess" on weight CF 15-20 grams Max. lighter per side frame

BOOGIE · 12-21-2006, 12:38 PM

Im wondering about the performance of the Futaba 9650 servos on a 50 size heli. Does anyone know another 50 size heli using these servos? I know they work good in the Logo 10 but they swings 500s.

BoneDoc · 12-21-2006, 12:39 PM

Logo 14

BTW, what kind of weight have people been hitting with the stock setup??

Ill wait for the test report before I start building and buying servos.
I already sold my 450 and Im itching for some flight time. hehe

BOOGIE · 12-21-2006, 12:57 PM

My 600 is 7.4 Ib with tp 5000 6s pack

Finless · 12-21-2006, 12:59 PM

Tom, are you asking about Charlies replacement Trex600 G10 frames or this new design with motor on top? If you just want replacement frames then he has them already. If you want this new frame with motor on top, that is what Charlie is saying will be out soon.

Bob

TomSardea · 12-21-2006, 01:07 PM

Hi Bob,

Ill would like to try the new motor on top. (If I can afford it) hehe.
What do you think? should I wait or just get the replacement G10 side frames?

Thanks!!

Finless · 12-21-2006, 01:11 PM

Thats up to you... if you want the motor on top you will have to wait

So you know Charlies replacment Trex600 frames allow different motors under as he modified the frame to allow that.

Look later in this forum and you will se my and tickity's review.

Bob

gordohigh · 12-21-2006, 06:26 PM

Charlie, It's the JR DS3421, (metal gear version). These are what I have in all my logo's, and are the best servo IMHO, for the job....

A little pricey, but well worth the money, especially after a crash with no damage to the servo...... :glasses2:

Finless · 12-21-2006, 08:53 PM

What is the speed of those?

Bob

Ticidytoc · 12-21-2006, 10:01 PM

The frames are here, the heli is built (with a twist), and the first test flights have been taken.

I talked to Charlie on the phone, he gave me a few pointers on the frames assembly and then the wait began.

Once they showed up the stock Align carbon frames came off (they are for sale btw). Everything went together without a hitch and Charlie's pointers were used with servo arm alignment. Its a snap, required 0 trim. After I tracked the 550's(yes, 550's) there are no vibes. Even with the 550's it feels light on 8s, the servos seem to be just fine on 6v.

Then the flight test. I pushed it as hard as I could. Staying hard on the collective, tictocs, rainbows, hard climbouts everything held up just fine. I will keep flying this way until something breaks or... well lets not think about that.

I'm liking this setup, with Charlie's other mods to this frame-set it will be a great option.

Great job Charlie !

I will keep flying this combo on 8s to get the most flight time I can on it keeping it my primary bird. I hope to put in at least 2-3 flights a day on it. I have to give props to Charlie, he doesn's want to release a design until hes confident it will hold up.

Thanks Charlie !

TomSardea · 12-21-2006, 10:25 PM

Time to get some micro seros and I need your PP account Charlie :mrgreen:

rdespins · 12-21-2006, 11:02 PM

DS3421

Torque 65oz
Speed 0.18

Kinda slow like all JR servos hehe

I think the Hitec is the nicest, fairly fast and more torque on 6V.

Ron

Ticidytoc · 12-22-2006, 12:28 AM

Oh and 6lbs 14oz for the T-Rex 550. :wink:

rdespins · 12-22-2006, 12:35 AM

I was thinking of going the other way hehe. Lighter frame, bigger motor and batts and 620mm blades. Lighter loading would be sweet.

Ron
