This photo of an Align Trex 700E is believed to be close to what the final release version of this big electric beast will look like. Notice the ample radio tray, top mounted motor, and the ample room for a battery tray in the bottom. It also looks like the canopy posts also act as [...]

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.

First shown in pictures from our 3DMasters coverage in Spain was the fact Align has been working on a new version T-Rex 700 Nitro.  Dubbed the Limited Edition,  the main different between the original 700 release is, with the exception of the tail case, all of the aluminum pieces are silver anodize instead of black.  [...]

Ever since the release of the T-Rex 450 Super Pro people have been asking, what is the next project for Jason Krause and the team at Align?  There have been many rumors, most centered around a gasser concept.  Well today this CAD drawing was released on Align’s Taiwan web site.  Looks like the rumors are [...]

Sometimes you see him and sometimes you don’t.  Every time I see this guy fly I wonder why doesn’t he fly in more competitions because his execution is so unique.  There seems to be a trend going more “smackdown” but Jason’s flights are exciting even without that style of flight.  Judge for yourself.
