Yes that's the lipos I'm using. They are actually a little heavy but you can still get the cog perfect. I had to install my esc and a reciever pack behind the motor to get the cog right. But I'm not using boom supports so if your still nose heavy you can add those. And if I fly without the canopy I just have to slide the battery down half an inch and cog is still perfect.

By the way I love these packs. I've had them for 2 years and they are still going strong.

Thanks for the info dominator! I might have to wait until they are back in stock at the USA warehouse. HK does not ship the Turnigy Heavy Duty here from their International store.

Slow and low with a headspeed of 1700rpm. Will be putting in an Align 750mx motor as soon as my new shaft and bearings come in!

Compass 6hvu low headspeed. (3 min 51 sec)

Great flying Alex!

Rush fan · 03-10-2016, 11:29 AM

Thanks for the kind words. Are you going to the heli funfly at Apollo?

Ah Clem · 03-10-2016, 11:53 AM

At this point, yes!

I understand it is a one day meet-is that correct?

Rush fan · 03-10-2016, 12:45 PM

Yes, and the more the better. If it was a quad event it would be packed but sadly heli enthusiasm has been tapering.

Eric T · 03-10-2016, 04:16 PM

Where and when is this fun fly? How did you guys hear about it?

Ah Clem · 03-10-2016, 06:53 PM

Apollo Field (Sepulveda Basin) on Saturday.

Fun Fly at Apollo 3-12-2016....upgraded to align 750mx motor. 1750 rpm with gobs of low end torque!

Rdavis007 · 03-13-2016, 09:21 AM

Very nice flying Rushfan. Some day I hope to do funnels!

dominator · 03-13-2016, 02:27 PM

Im still amazed how well this heli flys on 6s

still has gobs of power.

Excellent flying dominator.

My 550U is temporarily grounded until I can source better lipos for it. I'm afraid my Chronos/7HVU packs won't last long if I keep using them on the 550U. Too bad HK doesn't ship 6S 5000mah lipos to here or I would have either bought the Turnigy Heavy Duty or Graphene for the 550U.

dominator · 03-13-2016, 03:16 PM

Thanks cyclo. My turnigy heavy duty packs hold up just fine. My 700 pulls higher amps than my 6hvu does. I'd love to try those new packs out!

quinn · 03-14-2016, 09:09 AM

My 6hvu. This is only 2150rpm, but 14.5 pitch. Very quick.

6hvu (4 min 43 sec)

Rush fan · 03-14-2016, 10:48 PM

@Rdavis007....thanks for the compliment.

Rush fan · 03-16-2016, 12:25 PM

@Quinn....Very impressive power and flying! Is that the stock motor?

quinn · 03-16-2016, 05:33 PM

Nope, scorpion 4225. Only about 20 grams over stock, but it's a beast. I've been wanting to try it out in a light 700 build
