Refresh and refine, T-REX 500XT adapt with brand new FL rotor head system, utilizes an extremely low CG design which reduces resistance during 3D maneuvers while increasing flight responsiveness and precision. A progressive design adds a gloss silver and red anodizing appearance which continue our quality development based on our 700 class helicopter. The T-REX 500XT main frame utilizes composite material integration technology on carbon side frame plates, including the addition of battery mounting side rails, and a top motor mount design. T-REX 500XT landing skid is tilted 5 degrees forward to improve crashworthiness.
T-REX 500XT utilizes 470mm main blades and 520MX(1600KV/3527) motor with 20% power upgrades than the original 1600KV/3225 motor. The latest new RCE-BL80X Brushless ESC support dual BEC output from 6 ~ 8.4V providing efficient and superior power. The NEW DS530M/DS535M digital servos are with extreme torque and speed response allow to support faster, more precise and accurate flight performance.
Equipped with all the top end electronic devices, T-REX 500XT is as stable and powerful like the large scale helicopters. It is about to re-define the 500-class helicopters in your mind.
New extended 470mm main blades for T-REX 500X effectively improve the flying stability and power performance. Enhance the power for better control allow to enjoy T-REX 500X flights same like other large size helicopters.
New 78 size tail blades are longer in length and offer superior and precise tail holding performance, even during demanding 3D flight.
The brand new low CG 500FL Flybarless Rotor Head System utilizes the precision grinding of high-carbon steel hollow shaft effectively increase its concentricity. Allow to reduce resistance during 3D maneuvers, increased flight responsiveness and precision. In addition, the styling appearance harmony with red anodized and stainless color, bring out the high quality just like 700 size 3D helicopter.
New Swashplate design with precise bearings features in zero slop delivering a precise and accurate controlled flight.
New 520MX(1600KV/3527) motor features high efficiency, superior power, excellent torque, low current draw, and a low operating temperature. Allow to provide maintaining consistent torque and head speed through continuous 3D maneuvers.
Brand new CNC metal reinforcement plate and brace compare with frame mounting bolt effectively increase the torsional strength of main frame, under extreme 3D maneuver, you can strongly feel its solid reinforcement from its structure. In addition, the styling appearance harmony with red anodized and stainless color bring out the high tactile appeal.
Carbon fiber side frame plates are manufactured using a proprietary composite material integration technology which integrates the battery mounting rails into the frame. This unique use of open spaces within the frame creates a rigid frame and is aesthetically pleasing.
An additional 3rd main shaft bearing block increases the strength of the main frame while improving 3D flight.
Brand new ESC controller is built-in with BEC voltage setting, allow for continuous current 10A and more, also support surge current support up to 25A, much powerful and precision. Moreover, it utilize with high quality 32 bit M4 ARM processor and superior governor performance, support the best flight performance for all pilots in every level.
Brand new latching battery tray which utilizes integrated mounting rails inside the frames to simplify insertion / removal of battery while providing protection for the battery.
DS530M HV Cyclic and DS535M HV Rudder servos support up to 8.4V for superior responsiveness, extreme torque, and improved performance.
Ultilize of strengthen main gear case features in using larger bearing has a higher load carry capacity which reduces the loss of momentum and improves the fficiency, speed, and smoothness of the main rotor. The new main gear case and all-metal central pulley transmission system is an efficient design to deliver the ultimate performance.
Landing skid is tilted 5 degrees forward to improve crashworthiness.
A 19mm wide Tail Boom to improves the torsional strength.
Carbon Fiber Tail Control Rod is practical and improves the helicopters tail control.
The newly designed dual point supported tail control assembly delivers slop free performance while improving rudder resolution and precision.
The new tail rotor holder design includes thrust bearings which increases durability, as well as significantly improving the accuracy and efficiency of the tail performance when using 78 size Tail Blades.

The kit is a nice build for someone wanting to build their first heli.
This was shipped on time at a great price. Kit had all the parts and flys great. Great flying Heli.
This will make my second Trex 500 RC helicopter. I’m fairly new to the hobby and I find the 500 size heli to be a good training size for me. Happy with the delivery time after I order it, very satisfied with my purchase. Thanks guys!
Why buy Align Trex 500 ,or for that matter any of Align helicopters? I still have the first 500 model in very good working condition after what? 10 12 years. And it's still flying at its peak. Flybar and all. You can pay more for a "true" 500. But to me, the Trex 500 is the original and true 500. Not yet built. Have built many align helis. I know what to expect.
Received the 500X quickly and with good communication regarding the delivery time frame. Tracking information was quickly sent. The build went well with the set up of the BeastX and the 80A being a breeze. The Align ESC programmer worked like a champ.
Settings are pretty much default on the BeastX right now. Head gain is slightly above default and the tail gain is in the 50’s. I am running 2650 head speed through Gov Sto. I did lower the I gain one point below default.
The maiden went great. No issues at all. It is a great performing bird. No complaints whatsoever.
Great service and fast shipping. Everything fits great. Assembly is done, electronics is next.
Align does not fail in their quality on this Copter. Beautiful detail in all areas! Definitely would buy again! also, shipping to Florida was extremely fast, placed order on wed got it on monday.
I would like to be able to write a review but after ordering this heli on the 27 of November I am still waiting on delivery. Today is 12/21/20, so almost a month. Dont think I'll be ordering from here again since they use USPS for shipping. Have had nothing but back luck when using USPS
great transaction, fast delivery, every I need was in stock
I have been a fan of Align for over 10 years. Owned Trex 450, 500, 600 sizes and they never disappoint. There helis are the best bang for the buck. This 500XT kit comes complete with all the upgrades. Its all high quality parts. The heli flys rock solid and is definite recommendation!
Pros: Flybarless system, all machine metal parts, torque tube
Cons: This is a Microbeast con and not the actual heli, you get the flybarless controller with the basic software in the kit. To upgrade to the pro version you have purchase a 30 USB connector and then pay an additional 110.00 for the software download. For this price point it should of been included. The basic software works fine and this should not discourage you from purchasing.
