Thunder Tiger ARF build quality?

[wishfull1]

I just ordered up a TT E550 3-blade. This is my first TT ARF, all my other helis have been kits ( or re-kits ). Anything to watch out for? Everything locktited real nice on these TT's? Or do I strip it down and redo?

Thanks,
Bob

I was sent one for evaluation...It was hit and miss on lock tite...If it was me I would redo it all.

All the ARF (pre-assembled) kit should be tear down into pieces and re-assemble.
It doesn't matter if its Align, TT, Gaui.....
I won't disassemble plastic parts (those don't need Loctite), but will definitely check them. Those kit were assembled in a hurry with power tools. You never know what's gonna happened.

I'd tear it down too. Or at least go over it with a fine tooth comb. Friend of mine bought a Mini Titan and one of the tail pieces was put on backwards. Tough to see, but def noticed it in the air.

you never trust pre-assembled "toy"
I just put together a E325SE, which main blade grips with bearing pre-assembled and claimed to be "ready to use" and I found out the thrust brg was installed backward and they are dry.
