Trex 500 Speed Fuselage on a 500L Dominator

[Andyzboy]

Hi all, I'm going to build a trex 500 for a friend and he wanted a speed fuse for it. I got this fuse:

Does anyone know if it will fit on the 500 dominator? I compared pics of the main canopy for the dfc pro and the dominator and they appear to have identical shape, and they appear to fit in the same position relative to the boom block.

The only thing I can't confirm is if the tail section will bolt up to the boom block correctly. If anyone has some insight I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

isn't the 500l wider, i wouldn't count on it fitting

I wasn't aware, I'll check if I can find anything on that

Maybe you can investigate when you get the Heli built ? I'd be interested to know.

It certainly seems like the frame is wider, I think they use the same boom block but the dominator has some spacers built in:

Haven't ordered the heli kit yet, will need to see if my friend wants to get the older dfc pro kit to be able to run the fuse, or get the dominator and return the fuse.

Weird, so the dominator went with a wider frame like the old E? Oh Align lol

Yes the 500L is wider than the PRO
