Coming soon for review is the Outrage G5 heli
I’ve just learned that this will also come with a flybarless head (option) pictured below.
For those worried about costs of the V-Bar flybarless system there is a new player in the market with a more cost competitive solution:
Skookum Robotics

Arrived today, two new packs from Helidirect. These are from the OutrageXP series, one is the new 30C 6S 2500 for the T-Rex 500, the other is a T-Rex 450 3S 2200 pack, again 30C rated.
Also in the same package was the new upgrade tail gearbox, tail grips (thrust raced) and tail pitch slider. I took a few snaps of the packs and the tail case after fitting.




The first videos of the 700N sporting it’s canopy are on Helifreak.
You need to be a member on HeliFreak to download the videos.
Helidirect have just release their new 30C packs for the Align T-Rex 500.
The 6S 2500 30C weighs in at 388g.
I just finished comparing the OutrageXP 6S 2500 25C to the Align 6S 2600 25C so it will be interesting to see how this 30C pack and it’s 6S 2200 30C equivalent improve things due to that extra 5C on the rating.
One last item most worthy of mention is that the OutrageXP packs have the 50% crash replacement policy, so cost of ownership is very good indeed.

I just published the Align T-Rex 500 carbon tail blades review. A very worthwhile upgrade for the 3D flyer.
I just published the QuickUK 600 washout base review. An interesting upgrade for those who don’t like control system slop.
My thanks to RealRaptors for supplying this item for review.
