Default i got an issue....logo 690sx or a gaui x7

dilemma if i should go for a logo690sx or x7 formula
I have X3 , x5 n logo500 , t rexsss .. sold both x3 n x5. But still flying logo500 maybe gaui heli is easier to sell ..but i did not make effort to sell my logo though

now i got itchy hand whether to click for a 690sx or x7.. price for 690sx seems cheaper .. i know its a 600 streched logo.. but its look cool
x7 is very popular now.. maybe one of the few most hot 700 size at this moment..

Without bias.. i love all gaui , mikado, align, and so on..

What is your flying style? The 690sx is going to be super light and floaty but I doubt will Handle well in a crash, the X7 on the other hand is a tank and flies very well but I suspect will fly very different.

all 700 size doesnt crash well i think... due to its weight , the inertia is massive when hit the ground...

flying style 3d learning to be faster 3d..not aggresive of coz... not yet that level

I have never had either but I did have a logo 600sx and it was amazing.. one thing to keep in mind about the logo is its not a true 700 so it will be smaller than most other 700s...

it would be easy to build for you because its pretty much the same as the 500 only a few upgrades to it... and if you ever crashed and cracked a frame you know how much work that is to fix

so do you want to fly a light floaty heli and get more flight time, or a tank that flies awesome as well, easier to repair but you get less flight time

I don't have X7 but i own the logo 690 and several other logos. For me i just love how they fly (It is a logo thing). In case you are wondering about flight times, i am getting 6 min 30 sec at 2050 rpm, 3D and big air moves with 20% lift in bladder capacity when i land. Don't think you will regret either option.

I have an X7. I get 6:30 with 5300 packs at 2000 rpm and I fly mild 3d and big air stuff. It's a heavy heli, but it flies amazing. Flip a coin. I doubt you'll be disappointed with either.

I have to disagree, My 7hv crashes much better than my p500... I actually sold my p500 cause it was more expensive to repair my p500 (excluding blades or lipos) than my 7hv when I put them in, everytime i put them in

And I crash alot!

whats the take off weight for x7 bro ?? eveyrone in forum call x7 a tank..i wonder why

for logo 690sx its written 4.8kg with 12 5000mah..

i have a 700e v1 i will check the weight tomorrow on 12s 4500mah & 5000mah

i dun think its called a not true 700 size..due to its called 690 sx?

even x7 to flies like dunkan..he is using a 685mm spin blade...

i have seen in pictures...many of them broke main frame mostly are 700 size... broken main frame, caught fire, lipo bent... seldom you see a 450 size or 500 size damage as big as 700 size..

of cos Protos500 mantainence can be quite high... esspecially in places where less parts support,,,compass is nice heli, but i still prefer a mikado or a gaui at this moment..not sure if compass can last long this company....goblin some how i not so connected with it, i owned a 630 before...sold it after few flights


i just want a heli that dont break its frame so easily ( i broke 4 times frame on a 550 align dfc ) ...its a pain to replace main frame...and big cost too..

I have an x7 now and had a 600se years ago but I had an aftermarket head on it so it was more akin to the current 690sx, I feel.

Either way, the two helis will fly VERY different.

If you already have a Trex700e, I would suggest the 690sx between the two since I think the x7 would fly more like your 700e than the 690sx.
