Read why Matt made the switch inside!

Well, its the video you have all been waiting for, our setup video of the Align FL-760 3G 3-Axis Gyro on a T-Rex 700. I know that I am not the best of doing these instructional videos, especially on camera, but I think I am getting better. We are interviewing for a new instructor so don’t worry…in the future it only gets better. This video basically goes over the full setup of the system. This video is very long…about 25 minutes but it goes into alot of detail and ends with a demo flight. The download is about 920 megs as well. Enjoy…this was 4 days in the making.

Yes, it finally arrived here at the office at 11:30.  One of the most queried new releases in RCHeliResource history.  The iPhone of Gyros, the Align FL760 3G Flybarless gyro and T-Rex 700 conversion kit.  Looks really well.  We have an writen up this initial impression to keep you guys on the edge of your seats.  Its going to be raining all week here in California so there won’t be a flight video/review til maybe this weekend or early next week but that will give us time to do a full setup video for you.  We also have available for download is the setup/user manual.
