I just pulled the trigger on the TREX 500.Also ordered new Radio and battery charger.No point in skimping now.I also went with the flybarless set-up and a Helicommand Rigid.That way I can upgrade to a five blade system when I get the Hughs 500 fuselage.

Very Nice. I really want a big Trex, and the helicommand. When you're done with the helicommand send it to me for further testing. Thanks for the post.

You can have the Helicommand, Doozer. I want the DX7/AR7000 for $225. Nice deal, that.

I got a bunch of good deals there.All those prices are installed.Even the Helicommand rigid is priced at $600 installed and tested.It goes for $675 by itself most every other place.
The servo upgrade was to Align.He built this heli for me last week so I feel bad in a way for changing to the flybarless AND removing the Hitech servos and replacing them with Align.He had to charge me something.
By the way,I posted the invoice mainly to get their phone number and address on here.I spent a couple of hours on the phone with David Kutolic going through my options.He was super helpful and explained how everything works and didn't just try to sell me the most expensive stuff.I emailed him at david@texon2.com with my number and he called me fifteen minutes later.
They sell Align products almost exclusively and if you buy from them all your parts will be 10% off for life and your batteries will be 30% off.
I think I have found my new favorite dealer.

They sound like good guys. Kind of people we'd all enjoying doing business with. I think you made a good choice on the rigid set up.
Happy landings
