    I think we all started out flying align helicopters and all slowly moved away from them on to other companies ,they take to long in between models and then when a new one comes the changes are minimal. There's alot more competition now

      its looks dated AND i think the tech is dated also. Align have even put the cost up,the main reason Align sold alot was because it was not top notch but cheaper NOW its top money and dated.

      I also started with align for my first build and 3D helicopter. I like what they have done here but I won’t be going back too many other great brands out there like Sab xl power and tron.

      Did you watch the video? He probably means they need to step up their quality control and/or design. Not sure which was the cause, but having stuff come apart during flight is NOT a good look.

    • @alwaysflying6540
      @alwaysflying6540 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @MAGNUM2601 Align waited way too long to release anything new. There are far better helicopters out there now. I flew Align at one time but they will struggle to get everyone back on board. I have 10 plus years on flying helicopters and 30 years in the hobby all together. It's just my opinion

      This model is now experiencing reports of the main gear exploding into pieces during flight, most likely due to super tight gear mess and backlash tolerances that are too tight.

      And watching this remind how overly complex this and SAB is. I like plastic framed logos, literally goes together in minutes, with no loctite and its done and very durable, dont have to worry about scratching carbon this or metal that and having it look beat up. My Logos have gone years of flying and transporting and still look like new, dont have to baby them. I love that.

      A good simulator and a small fixed pitch indoor model that will handle multiple crashes! If you do jump the gun and get a heli like in the video (NOT advisable) then make sure you get a large training undercarriage and make sure the heli is setup correctly and for a beginner by an experienced heli pilot.

    • @richardmiddleton7770
      @richardmiddleton7770 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I believe the Align ESC governor relies on a FLAT throttle curve in idle up and is how you adjust the governed RPM.

    The Chinese are going to eat Align alive. As things progress, you darn well know OMP and Goosky are going to eventually get to making machines of this size. I could even see FlyWing doing something larger. When you don't consistently reinvent yourself, they'll end up being the next Kyosho, Hirobo or Thunder Tiger. As a lifelong fan of these heli brands, it was tough to watch them descend into darkness.
