I was wondering what you guys would recommend between the 480and 550sx? I know there two different sizes, but if you could pick one which would it be.

Thanks

Eric

Tough call. For me I chose the 480 because I already had the 600 and wanted something smaller. The 550 will need a bit more space to fly but can be set up to fly 500-600 size blades. What do you fly now and where do you fly it?

I have an x3. I fly at a field. It large enough for 700size helis. I just can't make my mind up.

If you've never had Logo before and don't mind spending a bit more I'd go with the 550SX. It's quite a bit bigger than the 400/480 and can easily be stretched if you want to go even bigger.

In that case I'd go with the 550sx.

This will be my first logo. Is the tail fixed on it, or do I need to do the mod?

I'm not sure what you are saying about the tail fixed. There is no need for mods on this Heli. Take your time on the build ,and make sure everything is installed correctly. Check that everything moves smooth before moving to the next step.

If you mean the issue of the tail hub letting go of the tail grips when fitted with tail blades longer 100mm and running very high head speeds then yes, that has been fixed with the 550/600SX kits.
