Default Just loving my 700

The more I progress in 3d the more I love my machine (700prohv) What an amazing bird. I've had it for a while now. And no issues just charge and go. The quality of the parts and ease of build was top notch. No complaints at all. I'll never understand people that talk smack about Align.

Coming up to 1000 flights on my Trekker and only one crash due to a link failure.

487 flights on my 700 Pro, zero issues and no crashes.

Apart from their 3GX controller there is nothing I can find fault with on Align's build quality.

I bought the 700 Pro DFC (non HV) last winter as my first 700 size heli. I enjoyed it all this year with absolutely no glitches or issues. Just charge and fly. I'm not good at keeping track of flights but I can guess close to 100.
I like this machine a lot.
The only change from bone stock is a Vbar instead of the 3GX simply because I've used Vbar for so long I have no desire to try anything else.

I gotta agree, the Trex 700 DFC is one mighty fine machine! I love the servo setup, the battery tray, the drive-line is long proven and they look the business too!

Here is mine in action today!

Nice brother!!!! I can't say enough good things about that machine. Sick flying. I'm running vbar instead of gpro.

Me too!

Mine has the newest servos, 815s and an 855 I think, they are very nice servos!
And a full size Vbar running 5.3Pro with a HeliJive 120

I am going to try some 696 Rails and 115s on the tail, mine still steps out a touch on really hard stops, I think I need a bit more gain, and the larger tail blades!

It's cool we are elevated a little so the top of the hay simulates the deck. So if we go alittle to low we just mow some grass.

I just maidened my TRex 700 Pro DFC almost a week ago and aside from a fault in a servo wire and a trying to get my tail gain set in the GPro this thing is awesome! I stepped up from the 550E Pro DFC and fly them every chance I get....which is never enough!

I would say the single best upgrade you could do is change out that gpro for a vbar you will love it.

Just out of curiosity have you run a vbar before? When I switched gyros it was a huge diff in flight performance. It became a pleasure to fly.

Default Hate to Bust in on your 700e thread

But.... where did y'all purchase your 700's??? If you don't mind me asking.
I'm shopping for a 700L TOP Dom.

If its at LH Shop then cool. Nobody stocks them around here.

living in US, lower 48.....

Thanks,

I got mine threw a local online seller, he has a shop, but he had his distributor drop ship it to me...

Did you check the usual suspects... Align Trex Store, Experience, Heli D... Grand RC, many of them are out of your state, so no tax, and they offer free shipping on orders over 100!
