The 700 looks very impressive.:thumbup: You can also see how the Spartan gyro works with the 700.:YeaBaby:

WOW!!! For a 90 class helicopter it moves like its a 50 class (Trex 600) very quick and agile. The spartan gyro indeed works well and the tail movements looks precise. Looks solid in a hover yet very quick in aerobatics. NIIICEE!!

[OHIOBOWHUNTER]

yes indeed ! very nice, but I believe A.Szabo Jr could hot melt a bunch of electronics to a piece of driftwood and make it fly that well :YeaBaby:

[LoveMyTrex]

looks sweet! :YeaBaby::noteworthy: looks like it is just as agile as the 600 and way bigger and better power. I want one.

[gixxernoob]

Nice need to save $$ so I can get it when it comes out...

[huskynox]

Wow!

Anyone know what size/brand blades they're flying?

[Symon]

690 V blades...I'm led to believe :)

Phenomenal piloting! :noteworthy

[merlin703]

S#*T!, I wonder what it would be like being inside that heli! :shock:

[heliMark]

wow I didn't expect a test video this quickly, it's sure does look neat, I'll be curious to see more as it developes, I understand they are supposed to have a few flying at huntsville, should be very interesting :banana

as much as i love the avant, if align get the 700 out first, and ASJ goes 100% align, avant will simply die i think. JMO of course, but really, coming from a Logo pilot, that thing really does perform!!!

Not surprise to see ASJ drops AVANT. I heard that Align paid a great amount fee to JK and ASJ to be the product develper and "promoter". It is very much a similar relationship between Michael Schumacher and Ferrari F1.

I put some photos and spec of the testing heli here.

Here is a mirror to the original video from Align's video server (VERY slow). The quality is much better than the youtube version.

JK and Alan, they are like aligns rc samurai, if those are just proto's they have to be worth like what would you say?... 20K to 35K in r&d and test manufacturing? maybe more? Yet someone still said to them "take these outside and see if they break" they sure didn't look like they were baby'n them.

[Stolpe]

I think that ASJ never have been flying so good like this before with his Avant. Maybe he have been practising some new tricks to show with this baby.

Anyway, it's going to bee exciting to see the finished product and how many people who are going to switch brand when it's going to be released to the market.

I've mirrored the video on my web site. It's got a 100mb connection and will be WAY faster then Align's site.

http://www.amoney.org/videos/rc/T-REX700B.wmv

66mb, right click save as please.

This is the full size video and much better quality then the one on YouTube.

[alawel]

Very nice. I'd like to see the machine in the hands of an average flyer instead of two of the worlds best. I think Align should send me a heli so I could show how the heli looks in the hands of a knucklehead. :-)

Thanks for posting the vid.

Awesome flying! :thumbup:

Can't wait to see the 700 in person.

Thanks for the video. :YeaBaby:

I read some comments about 700N from others. They raised an interesting question about the structure of 700N. When you look at the structure of 600N. It uses 3 X Main Shaft Bearing Block. But for 700N. You only see them using 2 X Main Shaft bearing block.

They worry the lower part of the frame will be twist a bit during extreme 3D. What you think?

Alan,

I think they have the answer then if they are worried. If it needs doing then do it.
