Good old style 600 size Align copy, but decent quality, to be aware this has body frame width of 54mm, this version mechanic will not fit the 600 Huey Roban kit.

I purchased this kit to go into a scale fuselage, I had to shorten the control rods to the blade grips by a coupe of mm each end so I could have 0 deg at mid stick. A couple of the ball link ends cracked when threading on to the control rods. and that was even with some pre threading with a 2mm tap. I am overall pleased with the quality of the kit and the fit.I found on line the Align 600ESP manual and printed it out for assembly.I found the ball ends were installed with thread locker but there is no grease on any bearings.

Not too bad for a clone of the older Align Trex 600ESP. Many parts are interchangeable. Flies well with a 4025-1100 motor and Castle Edge 100 ESC. Don’t assume the assembled parts have thread lock on the fasteners and disassemble and check everything. Slightly oversize all of the ball links before installing on the rods. They will split otherwise. The single bearings in the tail grips made for very loose and sloppy tail blades. I replaced the entire assembly with the original Align items. Sand off all the molding seams from the bottom gear tray for a flush fit into the side frames. Safe flying!

An outstanding build, especially withe the help from John Salts you tube build series. The frame went together with ease. This was my first attempt at building. Can't wait to purchase the electronics.

To start with, I’m a very basic flyer. I actually like building more than flying. With that said, the included instructions are very basic and for a flybar style head. If you have any experience building helicopters, you would be fine. The linkage lengths I had to guess because while building a number of them cracked and I ended up using Thunder Tiger linkage connections. I like it, it’ll be fun to keep around. Since I’m not a 3d flyer I put in some less aggressive electrics. I’m probably wrong but seems hard to find a canopy
