Options for 500-ish heli for 3300mAh batts?
I'm looking for recomendations on 500-ish sized electric heli that'll work with some 6S 3300mAh batteries I bought for a Trex 500L, but...well...I don't have it anymore, it's a re-kit.
Are there other heli's I should consider that will fly with that sized battery? It looks like the Gaui X5 is a bit bigger and wants 4000mAh. I'd prefer not to have 2min flight times. I thought I'd look at at Logo 500, but I guess they don't make them anymore? Maybe I should just get another 500L |

Do you still have all the electronics from the 500L? If so, then buying another one will cost a ton for a bunch of extra electronics that you don't need. You could look at getting a Protos, a Gaui X4, or a Compass Atom. You can find some pretty good deals on used airframes of those models.

Depends on what you want really. I wanted to keep to heli's that worked with 3300's so I could share packs.
I use my 3300's for my Trex 500, my Logo 480xx and in pairs for my 12s G570. There's probably others too.

I use 3200 and they work fine. I would look for a good used airframe. Mine is a Esp, pro, efl thingamagigy, converted to fbl and belt drive

I use Zippy Compacts 6s 3300 in my EP FBL 500
I use 2 6s 3300 Zippy Compacts in my 12s CF-FBL 600 it works great and I don't need more batteries as they share the same packs !

If you are into 3D then take bigger bird than TRex 500 because with 3300mah it will be slow. But if only sport flight, then it is a big plus - you get much longer flight time.
