    Murphy's law, what might happen does happen, but that how we learn. It's the hard way but in that is the best way to learn. I myself love to tinker and these helis give me that opportunity. Thanks for posting.

      I'm so excited for it! It's getting there, it looks a lot more like a heli now! Hopefully soon!

    You're going to love it! Align makes a tool for the feathering shaft. Feathering Shaft Wrench HOT00005. Great video,

      Thank you so much! I knew there had to be a tool for that! I'm very excited to fly it!

    Put both blade grips on then a hex driver in each end, the threads tighten opposite to each other. The nano s3 comes with its own spindle removal tool in the parts bag the two metal bits they go in each end of the blade grips.

      I tried that but the one side was stuck on there, I've since found a Feathering Shaft Wrench, that would have saved me, I didn't know those existed! I had to go look in my Nano box, it really does come with the grip tools! Thanks!

    Hi ! I love your videos showing how to build T-REX 550 X. It's clear, understandable and now I feel like buying mine also and I will. No one else on UA-cam explaned how to build a T-REX as clear as you so far. Thanks a lot for what you do for helicopter RC community! I liked so much that now I suscribed to you channel. And If you feel like, make more videos with you T-REX 500 X flying.

      Thank you Franck from France! I'm glad you liked the video and it might help you out. I love my 550X so much! The build manual looks very scary at first but piece by piece it came together nicely! Me and my wife are heading out today to go fly some more helicopters, so videos coming soon! Thanks again!

    It will be funny to see a size comparison with the blade nano s3 and the trex 550x.The blade nano s3 is like a little bug 🐜 compared to the trex 550x. Even the blade 330 is smaller

    • @kingfamilyrc5376
      @kingfamilyrc5376  Рік тому +1

      Hahaha yeah the Nano is like a bug compared to the 550x, I want to do a comparison video with all of our helis, soon I hope! It's funny my 330 used to be the huge heli in our house, now it looks quite small!

    Does it come with a flybarless I’m getting a logo 550 and it’s about 500 bucks teacher and I think it’s bigger than the align trex 550 so good luck with ur

    • @kingfamilyrc5376
      @kingfamilyrc5376  Рік тому

      Yes Trex comes complete with everything including the flybarless, the Logo 550 line looks great and someday I want one for sure. Logo is barely taller and wider than Trex 550 but Trex is longer so neither one holds the "bigger" title, and only the Logo 550 SE has a slightly bigger rotor diameter, the other Logo 550s are smaller than Trex in rotor size, and as far as I could tell when I was researching 6s 550s to buy, the Logo doesn't have a complete kit, there's one with and esc and flybarless but then no servos but if you get the servo/flybarless kit then there's no esc, and that kit is $1050 so not exactly 500 bucks cheaper, more like $90 bucks cheaper is all. I'm guessing you will be buying more for yours to get it flying so good luck with yours to.

    Hi Wes ! Please tell me what is the brand of your Grease you use for T-Rex 550 ? I need to buy for building my new T-Rex 470 LM I will receive soon.

      Hi Franck! I used "Racer's Edge 3023 O-Ring Grease" but any synthetic o-ring safe grease will work. I'm excited for you! The Trex 470 LM looks great! 👍
