Trex 500 RC Helicopter Build vids below
___________________________________________

OK here are the Trex 500 build videos. I am going to try and complete these in the next week and as fast as possible.

However as you will hear in the "what's in the box" video my voice is gone. It's a little better today but last night it was SHOT so Frank Lock from Assurance did my "What's in the box" video. Thanks Frank!

First up!
Video Link -What's in the box!! (17 Megs)

Note on below! Align changed the longer ball to a shorter ball on the seesaw mixer arms. All 4 balls are now short balls!
Video Link -Step 1 - SeeSaw Assembly (20 Megs)

Video Link -Step 2 - Flybar Cage and Flybar Assembly (45 Megs)

Video Link -Step 4 - Blade Grip Installation (40 Megs)

Video Link -Step 5 - Paddles and Grip Links (20 Megs)

Video Link -Step 6 - Main Frame Assembly (42 Megs)

Video Link -Step 7 - Servo Install w/ S9650 (45 Megs)
Note: Someone pointed out I did not show how to trim off the "tabs" from a S9650 for use on the Trex 500. This is because I had already done it as these servos were used on my Rotorworkz HFE frame build vids. So anyway if you want to see how to trim off the tabs properly watch this video

Video Link -Step 7a- Servo Install with HS-5245 Servos (61 Megs)
The above video is using the Hitec HS-5245 servos. BIG THANKS to rchover.com and Hitec for supplying these man! But there are some problems so watch the vid. I don't do a full setup but I do give some tips so you WILL need to watch step 8 for CCPM setup OK....

Quick Diversion:
I will be using a JR X9303 radio with this heli so I thought I would do a quickly overview of setting up the radio. I plan to do a full blown setup another time but this should help some people get started. Next vids will go into more menus for doing servo setup.
Video Link -Jr X9303 Quickly Setup Overview (84 Megs)

OK back to the heli build.....
Video Link -Step 8 - Servo Setup (54 Megs)
If you use HS-5245MG servos than watch that and also watch this please....

OK Another divergence to talk about WHY the servo link geometry is like it is... You don't need to watch this but if you are wondering why the links from the servos are not straight up and down, this will explain it.
Video Link :Why the Link Geometry is like it is (30 Megs)

Back to the build again
Video Link :Head, Main Gear, and Servo link install (42 Megs)

OK this is head setup bottom to top. BUT there was a discussion a few days ago about HOW to set 0 pitch without a pitch guage and I promised i would show how in this video. So there you have it!
NOTE! The manual changed from my video. The long link is now 34mm and my manual said 31mm.

OK I am going to use the Solid-G gyro from Curtis Youngblood on this heli. So these vids are all about setting that up! If your using somthing else then see my MANY other setups for the 401, 611, SpartanRC, etc... But this section will be all about setting up the Curtis Solid-G with the T-rex500
