Hey! Yours looks like mine now ..I am debating on changing my servos too. Buy twice seems to be the norm. Had a new Scorpion esc fry on my very first maiden, they are replacing for free and a new motor..its all adding up. Think of the bright side, you didnt crash your X7..twice!

If I hadn't decided to upgrade the model to a Vbar I might have crashed it. I found the problem trying to level the swash on my vbar setup.

Let the games begin.

The nice thing about having to replace servos, all those "obvious" wire paths you found AFTER you mounted them the first time are now available to you

See where the anti-rotation bracket meets the little carbon lip in front of the bracket? If you take the slightest bit of carbon fiber off the lip and make it 90 deg vertical, your anti-rotation bracket will sit straight up instead of leaning back.

Something got lost in translation..it was suppose to be red skulls and chrome lettering. I still think it looks kool! 70.00 for custom canopy and 35.00 for shipping.
