wah, how much u spent for it?

[detach8]

hmm i would prefer the square flybar cage anytime. is there a reason why TT didnt adopt the square flybar cage? what are the design considerations?

now now where is SH

[glenn cain]

ah so thats how the g-sp...i mean g-force looks like.

why do you prefer the square cage? its less aerodynamic is it not?

[Super-Hornet]

I can't think of any reason right now for rectangular bracket or "L" shape...except I think "L" shape it is cheaper and easier to manufacture

hmm besides being cheaper maybe it's easier to replace one side that got damage as well, but that's not really a point because the flybar cage hardly gets damaged. in fact i crashed bazillion times and never had to replace my flybar cage.

My guess will be that "L" shape cage is more unique then the square ones which are use on Trex and many other models, and they don't want to be a clone to others as well as not wanting others to clone theirs..

Ehh.. how to unique? Since TRex 450X, they already using the "L" shape. It is only when TRex450XL HDE come out that they officially replace to the rectangular bracket.

to me, as long as it works well.. i dont care..

'L' shape need to align cost 2 piece where as square is one piece.. easier.

[awesome]

and because the cage is braced all round its more rigid..gives me a better feel even with the stock plastic..but tt metal parts should work good too..

this is one reason for me wanting to change to trex head the other time...

yes, greenh0rn..your bling rotor head hooks solid..

[tucfaz]

Yep.. I guess these people will shift their design when they see some similarity.. as now.. most cages are squre.. but TT ones are "L".. That's just my guess lah. But again, it's like killing 2 birds with 1 stone, as "L" shape are easier to produce with a 1 piece design for left and right.. whereby the square ones require 2 different parts with 4 pieces (2 x 2 ) forming 1 single cage. Hence, need 2 process to produce a single item. Logistic wise, also more busy.. store need to keep track or 2 items, and there are screws as well??.. Hence, for packaging consideration.. How should they ship?? if as a whole.. Then need extra labor to assemble, if in parts, then require extra steps to pack the bits and pieces..

Yes.. The "L" shape ones are harder to mount.. Need to align.. But I think there's really no high tech reason to why they use the "L" shape ones lah.. as square or "L" shapes , they all works the same.. Again.. Just my guess hor.. it's cost saving for TT..

'L' shape need to align cost 2 piece where as square is one piece.. easier.
