OK here is a complete overview about the Trex450 "official" V2 heli. I show all the changes good and bad.
This does not show a build video as I think that would be redundant (it's not that different) but does go into all the changes and I do a good overview and build of the major change which is the head and thrust bearings.
If you all feel I need to cover some build things let me know and I will.
ENJOY!

Love the new blade grips with thrust bearing. I wonder if the new 4mm feather will hold up better in a crash. Thanks for the update.

CALL THEM TOMORROW if you want to be the first kid on the block with one!
Tell them I sent you from HF ;) (they will HATE me for saying that TRUST ME).

WOW! I want one.
They're not putting me out of business, but they sure fixed things I keyed on. They even are using the shorter horiz fin like I made for Torkboy.
Nice vid Bob, thanks

I gotta have one I wonder it GrandRC will have them by Friday(payday) :shock:
Man BOB that just looks sweet!
Suddenly the light blue anodizing looks less impressive.
But seriously all I want is the new MOTOR and thrust bearings.
Now all they need is a TORQUE Tube conversion for the SE and I will be in heaven!
The belt is getting a little annoying.
I am so impressed that align actually listened to their customers and made all the important changes!

Wow Bob sounds happier than a sissy in Boys Town........ :rolling

Bob, how is the new tail pitch slider?
Is it still 0 pitch when the slider is in the center or have they added a bit of positive pitch in their new design?

I just wonder who will be smart enough to package an upgrade kit. New head/spindle/grips setup.
I already have the motor coming.

All sorted :) - Just canceled my order for the 450SE so will be hoping the online retailers will be getting them soon. Do you happen to have the part number for the heli? Makes searching easier.

Video server clears out the temp files slowly so the dialaup people can download. We are cranking through a TON of downloads. Any one of Bob's videos is downloaded more than all the flying vids put together!! :shock:
Anyway, Bob you sold me, my V2 kit is ordered. :hug:
