DLing also, gotta turn off my brothers torrenting stuff, this thing is taking forever!

[fireup]

Thanks, Bob!!

That was great. 7 min. on two Trex packs! Time to buy a couple more evolite 2500's.

Is Andy going to be flying it this weekend? I want to see.

[heliboy88]

Wow, the T500 is really cool:thumbup:. And i don't have to worry about the cost of those 6s1p packs now, Andy is flying 7 mins with 2 x 450 packs in series, with my skills i could get a lot more flight times(although i won't). Really lots of thanks Bob, now the only thing i've to think of is when will this be available in the market.:YeaBaby:

[Jason Chow]

if andy is going to arbor park sunday, someone better call me !!!!

[ahperson]

Nice video Bob! If possible could you do a size comparison with 450, 500 and the 600. Thanks!

Andre

[Trooper Sam]

Oh, man....just what I need, another one.

Okay, I do need it. May not be until next year, though. At least the battery investment won't be outrageous. If it flies well enough, maybe I'll consider selling the 600E. :)

[Billybuck]

I was about to buy a 450 V2 and a 600E but may just get the 450 and pick up the 500 later instead.

Thanks for this video Bob and can't wait to see the full build video. I have been watching a lot of build videos and no one compares to yours.

For a beginner you are definately a prayer answered.

Thanks!

[brovic777]

Very nicely done Finless. Seems like you got a new camera too!! HD?? :)

[rotary65]

Thanks for the video Bob - excellent. You pointed out lots of little details that weren't readily apparent in the flying videos.

Great stuff!

[booger]

man I so hope this heli makes it for christmas. I want one soooooo bad.
thanks for the video Bob

[Andcam]

Many thanks Bob, the question answered on the 500 flying for 6-7 mins on 2 x 450 battery packs made my day, sure a lot of 450 guys are happy campers now. Can invest in plenty of 450 packs now knowing all will be good down the track for batteries when i get a 500.:thumbup:

[Symon]

Brilliant video Bob and a pleasure to watch :)

Andy always comes across as a top top guy.

I'll look forward to meeting one day...perhaps in Taiwan or the UK :)

[heliwild]

What type of charger do you have to use to charge the two batteries in series? I have the Thunder Power Charger and Balancer from a 450 I used to have.

[Finless]

You will need a charger that does 6S and you will need a balancer adapter to convert from 2x3s to a 6S configuration.

Bob

[Big Fil]

I want one. Really loving the black ano on everything.

[okayplayer]

Trooper Sam, Finless, fireup.. Someone better let me know if Andy's comin' to Arbor this weekend with that thing....

Sam, find your phone. I'm gonna call you in a min to "remind" you. :)

[Finless]

Andy WILL NOT BE HERE this weekend.
He is going to Vegas to a Electric Funfly.

Bob

[ChasHeliCop]

Oh I am definitely in now. I have been holding off on buying 450 packs for this very reason. I am thinking 3s 2500's. I would have loved to see the balance with those packs on the heli. Crossing my fingers it's released before Christmas, where do I get in line. Real nice video Bob......... much appreciated ! Thanks to Andy too !
:noteworthy

Wish they would lower the price and ship it with no packs........ gotta' go FP.

[rcasey212]

Yes, I will definitely be buying one of these as soon as it is released! Thanks for the excellent journalism, Bob.

[Finless]

DANG IT!!!

I left my 450 at Andy's shop and have to go back to get it.

Anyone want me to ask anything I may have missed about the 450?

Bob

[rotodingo]

As far as i know, Align is making everything they can for you, american people, to have it under the christmas tree. A war is able to start between those that got one in time and all the others...
