T-rex 700 Here are a few pictures.

I just built a 500CF. It was a really fast build and all the parts fit perfect. Typical Align quality.  I think the size of this machine is close to perfect for anyone who flies in a slightly confined space. I don't mean your living room, I mean an acre or two. It's also a great kit for anyone who owns a small car. It will fit in anyone's trunk or front seat, which is where I carry mine. I'm using a 5S 3300 pack with a 15 tooth pinion gear. So far this model has been rock solid. I plan to devote a page to  it soon. Here's a couple tips that you might not see anywhere else.

We are making fantastic deals on T-rex kits when you buy the whole package. Don't buy a T-rex without checking with us. A phone call is best.

Nitro Standard kits are in stock.

The 600 Nitro kits are generally available now Check the online store for availability.

I just finished my first T-Rex 600. So far I like it a lot. I am using 9351s and a 611 gyro. I haven't really decided how I'm going to power the receiver, but I'm leaning toward two small NiCd packs plugged directly into the receiver and monitoring it with a Voltmagic. I plan to devote a page to this machine in the near future.

We have started handling the T-rex 600 CF kit with motor and ESC as well as the T-Rex 600 Nitro kits. Parts are in stock.

The T-rex V2 will arrive around the middle of March. This is a NICE kit. It has the new 430XL motor, painted fiberglass canopy, thrust bearings in the head and a new t/r control system that is head and shoulders better than the old one. The frames are suppose to be stiffer too.  Another thing that I really like are the new flybar paddles and flybar. It's just a little longer and seems to tame things down in a hover without sacrificing anything on the aerobatics. The one set of blades that come with it are really good too. I'm really looking forward to this one.

I put a Quark 33A speed controller on my SE and I really like it. The power seems to be more in tune with the throttle curve. I run it without soft start and no governor mode. Everything else is default. While this controller has many advanced functions, I didn't find it necessary to go into the advanced programming mode at all. I plan to install a 430XL motor this week. I hear it's got a lot more power. I know during our funfly Jason Krause was getting flight times of about 18 minutes when he held the headspeed to about 2000 and about 6 minutes at all out 3D. He was using the new Thunder Power 2170 3SX pack.
