Guess this is aimed at you Mika as you have the head. Im just on installing it now. I have a pack of linkage rods etc. Do the shortest go on the very top. The slightly longer rods on the flybar?

What about the 2 longest lengths? are they the washout assembly links?

Any installation infor welcome.

Just like any T-Rex style head - the shortest links go from blade grips to mixing arms, medium ones from flybar cage to washout mixing arms and the longest ones from swashplate to the upper mixing arms.

Make sure they are all the same length.... not guaranteed they did a good job in the factory.

I will have to wait again. Cant really setup until TX comes back. I have the head on now. Looks nice and solid. Really please cant wait to test it. Will have to order some more little bits though. Missing a couple of Trex style metal balls.

Looks sharp, Andy. That neon yellow kinda makes me want to revisit the angry wasp theme myself :)

The frame CNC was Blue and the tail silver. I liked the Silver head but thought the Blue head stood out more so went for that:). My new radio gear has come back. But I think im no further forward as the company has said they couldnt replicate the fault. They sent me a new radio anyway but will only know when I try and fly I guess
