I've been using the 4649T for a while but the antennae pop off easily if the hot glue failed. Spektrum discontinued the 4649T and replaced it with this. I like the new design looks more rugged

I started using Torque servos back with my Fusion 50 and loved them. They went away for a while but now thankfully HeliDirect took on the brand and brought it back. I have Torq servos in my 570, 500, and 700 Goblins. I bought these for my 580

Although I think it's almost impossible to bend these. The threads can wear through repeated disassembly & reassembly. Good idea to check your threads once a year

It's almost impossible to destroy these in a crash but it can happen . Good idea to pull your's out after a hard crash and make sure the shaft is true

These blades are plenty stiff so I doubt you'll ever feel like you need to buy carbon fiber tails for your 380.

I loved how this works on my 570 so I modified one to work on my 500. Makes the tail quieter and more efficient

I love this lube. It's not messy, it lasts, it make my helis perform better

I love these servos. Been using Torque for years. Going back to my Outrage Fusion 50.

So I came to using longer blades later than many. These are 10mm longer than stock 500's adding 20mm to the over all disk diameter definitely changed how my heli feels in the air. It's lighter and feels more precise

I was amazed at how much more precise my 500 feels in the air with these dampeners versus the softer stock ones. Really love it

If you are running standard size servos on a Goblin 500 you're gonna need this belt so the motor clears the front servo casinga

These are critical items for an ideal setup

Love the new style battery tray

I started loving this type of gear on my Goblin 380 where I found that despite unplanned hard landings these won't break so trying them on my Goblin 500 that I've slowly converted to being a sport model

Use a gear ratio calculator to determine what's the best motor pulley size to match with your main gear to achieve your ideal head speed with the throttle at 80%. Your Motor, ESC, and Batteries will thank you for it.

Easy to install; works as designed.

These horns are ideal for smaller Helis where you'd prefer the servo arm to fail in a crash over the servo itself getting damaged. They are very durable but will fail in a hard enough crash that could damage a servo

Although it's hard to damage these. It's a good idea to replace them after several hard crashes

I love these servo horns

Received within a few days. Haven’t had a chance to open the box yet and see what’s inside.
Will update when I get to that stage of this project!
Asked for info on what are the best servo’s for this plane from helidir. Response was nothing more than a sales pitch with links to all the servos available from helidirect. No real advise on which servo unit was best for this model.
Photo shows box with four other model planes that I have yet to open and build. Doing some remodeling in my house now and that’s taking up a lot of my time,
Thanks and good day

I've been using iKon/MSH FBL units starting when Goblin first came out. I love these FBL units.

Even if your old tail belt looks good. Wear matters and your system will be more efficient if your tail belt isn't all stretched out.

Dropping your tail pulley tooth count will speed up your tail and make it hold better

Started out with the Tarians B And been flying with several of Frsky radios. I wanted a small radio but since I’m a pincher couldn’t find the right one. Well this one fits in my hands perfectly and feels right at home in my hands. Love it more and every time I use it. Highly recommend this one for thumbers and pinchers.

Good services

Been flying Quadcopters since 2013 and was never a DJI fan but after getting the DJI FPV system I figured I would give the Mavic mini a chance. I’m really impressed with it. Takes really nice video and pictures. Highly recommend it.

Awesome drone the picture quality is amazing looking forward to capturing some great video.

Very nice jet

Excellent performance!

I've owned several of the Align Helicopter kits and this one is right up there them. Assembly was straightforward and the calibration procedures were easy to follow. Only issues I had were a missing canopy grommet, but since I had spares, it wasn't a problem, and the instructions reference parts bags that don't exist. Best advice I can give is pay attention to your servo wire routing, not a lot of space for wire slop. Excellent kit and very happy.

Direct replacement for the original

Fly more combo gives you three but it’s always a good idea to have a few more on ready 😉 those hyper lapse videos eat them up

Folding sticks are great for throwing in your bag before and after flights. Small form factor is nice to pack up and feels great in hand. 10/10 would recommend

Great produce, will buy from heli direct again

I received as scheduled and product works per description and once again I am confident that my tri-blade Goblin will not lose a link in flight.

I have this Ikon2 installed in place of the BeastX that comes with the TREX-550X. The logging and telemetry to my transmitter is fantastic. I had no problem getting it to even send all data from the Align (Hobbywing clone) ESC. I can set pack voltage and mAH used alarms in my transmitter.

The governor works very well and was easy to set up. It is easy to put "banks" (their version of flight modes) switching on the transmitter switch as controls idle up and automatically switch in matching FBL tuning to head speed.

The biggest plus is that it is easy to verify that it each step is configured properly as you work through the setup.

I like them enough to pay for an Ikon when I have a free BeastX I could use.

I have an Ikon 2 mini in my Oxy 2. The two craft fly very similarly despite the gulf in their sizes. I am super impressed with the product so far.
