How to properly assemble any heli that comes with the head or any parts pre assembled is to disassemble everything and rebuild using threadlock. Either that or wear a suit of armour. The last thing you want is to have a blade grip or link arm detatch during an eye level hover.
Hi I set pitch to 40,53,67,80,90 and increase point 3 (middle point) normally 50 on throttle curve to 68. I set these for beginners, you may find 35 45 65 85 90 gives you more control for circuits but you may need a higher head speed. I use Phoenix flight sim to test the curves (c:
@don021980 Those measurements will give the best mechanical set up then use the radio to adjust for your style. stability comes from good servos, gyro etc.
Cheers, blade tracking is easy if both blades are balanced. I colour one tip with red marker so I can tell which blade is which, then at 50% throttle see which blade seems to move up or down. Adjust the linkage for that blade only until both are tracking. check out my belt cp vids I did a tracking one there.
@granturismoMiguel yes they do look the same, practically the same heli, but the diffrence is the quality :) align stuff has very little to no play in the head and is all very percise, other clones/copies if the align stuff has too much slop in the head and the parts are very flimsy, hope that cleared it up abit
nice vid Gary takes me back lol. notice you mention taming the heli down a bit. can you rec a decent pitch/thr curve for just gentle circuit type flying? just re set my head and its like flying in idle u lol.
Great vid mate and now i know where to come when and if i get a T-REX,i would love a T-REX but i wouldn't bye ferrari untill i could drive a car lol,very helpful video still mate,5*
LOL no I'm not rich but I'm very happy in my work (c: I can do the kit in 45 mins and probably 2 hours from kit to ready to fly. Though I prefer to take my time and get it spot on so say 3 hours total.
thanks for the video love this stuff soaking it up like a sponge . what is the diff between 450pro and 450SE or SEV2 or V3 as far as control's or links on the head and tail? Thanks agian
hello , I need some advice . I have this same Heli . When I spool it up to take off , it want's to tip over on it's left side . I given it some clicks to the right but it's not helping ?
hi guys , i need help on how to setup the controls on my heli, just installed a new ar6200 on my trex450 but the control on the sticks are reversed, been swapping the servos to the receiver, and reversing the servos from my dx6i but still cant find a match ,. hope you cant help. thanks.
Cheers mate, they are very nice to build and fly, very stable and plenty of power (c: but can be tamed with nice pitch curves etc.
cheers gary will give this settings a try.
67 @ mid point sounds better than my current 50% @ mid stik.
thanks

thank you so much my friend. it helped me put the boom on. hope you make more.

Nice info. I appreciate this. Please consider doing a video showing blade tracking. That is my other problem. Thanks
That was really good. I get the impression you could just about build one in your sleep ;)

ah I thought your watch was slow (c:
Those are others I made over the weekend for customers, it's my job, building and repairing RC heli's (c:
@destrosacuello Thank you for the comment glad I could help.
@GaryGraham66 doh, forgot to say just put those letters etc in youtube, its my 450 build video (c:
Great vid! Thanks, a lot of good tips.

If you're using DX7 then turn on expo on for throttle and pitch.
Hi, we sell the Trex 450s with dx6i. rtf for £399.99.
and the rtf 450SE V2 with dx7 etc for £804.99
built and ready to go.

yeah sure just remember to check the gyro is operating properly, it will need reversing on the gyro setup.
nice vid Gary takes me back lol.
notice you mention taming the heli down a bit.

just re set my head and its like flying in idle u lol.

thanks man
This is the original trex 450, as far as I can remember it had a cf frame.

@Pathseeker56 yeah they are quite similar and the physical set up is the same for most helicopters. this one may be closer. Y2bFO1joxxE
@Stoegerx20sniper I used to work for heligay and got it from there, don't think you can get them anymore.
Omg... it must have taken ages to take all these pictures :o) nice work then.

@GaryGraham66
thanks buddy
They were built for work I did nine that weekend.
But you can never have enough trex's (c:
head design and servo position
How did you go about building helis for cash? i would love to do that!!!
At least 5 - 6 sec per scene would be nice. TH-cam doesn't charge by length.
@hek80 see my video on installing the electonics into trex 450 all will be made clear.
im 14 do you think its strange when i build one i build a rc tank and a plane ( P-51 mustang) and a gun from scrap
i have a hobbyking gyro mounted on top of tail boom. can i mount it on the bottom usd?
Hello would this build be about the same as the trex450-sport v2?

how come there is more in the boxes
are those measurements set up for stable heli?
you must be rich how long does it take to make one
were did you buy this heli
is it CF frame ?
lol ...time to make another one.............. ;-) i cant even get mine together pfff
CopterX, T-rex 450 SE/SA and Ark X400 looks the same
7:57
@elmardus lol so I did (c;
lol the others awaiting servo's
huh?
LOL
lol why have you got 3 t-rexes.
