Jermo's Trex Case Review

[Finless]

Jermo did a Trex450 case review comparing the Align case with the Flight Leader case.

Here is the review video:

Hmm. Interesting review. I'd like to know what was making the beeping sound and what kind of bird he has!

[Jermo]

ROFL ;)
Cellpro 4S recharging my 4 packs and a cockateil (well a mating pair). I had gone to the field after dinner to give my lovely bride a chance to do her college homework. When I got home I had the dining room table to myself :) .

I'll do a better job of lightng and removing background noises..hehe..

Jermo, My buddy has a Mini-titan and it wouldn't fit in the Align case, will it fit in the Flight Leader case?

Thanks,

Jeremy

[Jermo]

no idea, I'm going to Columbia SC this weekened, If anyone has a Mini-Titan I'll as them to check it. In what way did it not fit? if it was length the flight leader case is longer than the Align case. I'll need to measure to find out by how much.

Thanks Jermo, sometimes you really do have to think outside the box in order to get everything in the box. It never occurd to me to turn my dx7 sideways. :D

[Jermo]

Me neither.. I was going to cut my foam when I read someone had just turned it :WOW

[eschummer]

Anybody know where I might be able to get a Flightleader case? I did a search but came up empty...

Thanks, Ed

[Jermo]

I got mine at www.hobbypeople.net

[LITHIUMSTATIC]

Jermo if you could find a case like that for a 600 size heli you would have a hit on your hands.

[Jermo]

I'm looking for a 500 and a 600 size :)

[LITHIUMSTATIC]

Jermo, Check this out.

I found this case on Amazon. It's only $45 but i'm not sure if it will work. If the dimensions are right i might be able to get my trex450 in it.

Thanks,

Jeremy

I have my Mini Titan in a flightleader case. Fits good, although not with the canopy on due to extra length with it on. The canopy fits in the case beside the front of the heli. Plenty of room for my DX7 and a couple of Lipos. £45 here in UK from Hobbystores

[Bob Payne]

do you have a part number for hobbypeople?
i just found this one and it is not the same
unless they started using only 2 hinges? yours had 3

Thanks



Flight Leader Aluminum Helicopter Case High quality aluminum case designed for the transportation and safe storage of your 300-400 class electric helicopter, transmitter and field equipment Features:

Two tough hinges
Two lockable over center catches
Handle and removable carrying strap
Pre-cut foam liner
Room for your helicopter, transmitter, option motors, batteries, charger and more!

[Jermo]

same case..mine came with three hinges I only expected 2.

[Trumpetrhapsody]

I assume both of these cases would fit the HDX-450se + radio and some lipos?

[chopper rob]

Hmm. Interesting review. I'd like to know what was making the beeping sound and what kind of bird he has!

The bird has to be a cockatiel. Every time I view Jermo's videos, my cockatiel goes nuts.
Thanks Bob and Jermo for the videos! They help alot. :thumbup:

[Jermo]

Trumpet I have no idea on the size of the HDX450. If it's the same as a T450SE then it will fit.

I can put my DX7, Copter, Charger, tools, spares, 6 Lipo's, buddy cord, DVM, Tach, and misc cables in my case and still have room. I've since moved my Lipo's and charger to a seperate box since adding 2 more chargers and a 35A DC power supply.

I love my Tiels. Awesum Birds. I've started moving them to the other end of the house when I film. The beeping sounds was my FMA Cellpro 4S finishing up a pack I flew in the front yard (small but enough to do circles/8s and dice patterns (T patterns on steroids)).

I think i found another case that needs looking at as a possible contender for the two in the review? Kopter Case - Internal Dimension :710x200x300mm
- Weight:4145g Here's a link to it http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=015&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=250132326543&rd=1&rd=1 What do you guys think?
