cc25 (older model without mosfet according to Frank)
align 400LF 2800KV
Etec 3S 1700 lipo (i think this one is losing its charge already)
stock CCPM
stock flybar and paddles
stock swash plate
newer main rotor hub <-- that needs 2 O rings each side
upgraded level arms
315 wooden blades
345 extended boom.
HS55 for cyclics and pitch
HS81 MG for tail servo
Gy401 gyro
rchover battery and reciever tray <-- i dont find this really useful
rchover vertical tail fin

the newer main rotor hub broke on impact, somehow this saved my spindle shaft and blades, 1 blade was intact the other slightly bent. but i lost 2 linkages and the swash plate was damaged as 1 ball link was ripped out together with that lost linkage.

Wah liew!! i feel ashamed!!
Now u into 3D and i'm still hovering.. hehehe..

But i see that the switch to Trex from the Zap has done u wonders!
And with the zap, u were like nowhere close to this level!
WAH, now who's still saying the Trex can't perform??

Loops, rolls, and inverted hover! very very nice flight!!

If i can do all that, i wouldn't mind a crash at the end!

Think at the end hor, u joker la.. i think a forward flip would have been easier?? hehehe..
But very nice la! i can't even FF..

thanks for all the encourangements! I'll try to do better next time..
i was too stupid at the end to do the flip..

Thks Ben.Just got my 2nd hand Trex, looking for the best setup. btw, what is your pinion teeth for your 400LF motor? 15? motor and battery temp ok?

sorry for late reply.. just came back from my mini honeymoon at sentosa.
I'm using 15t pinion, battery temp i never measure before so cant answer.
I've not measured my rotor head speed also.. seems low to me, even when using 15t.
