Align T-REX 550X Dominator Super Combo (DS820M/DS825M Servos)
){kind=link}
The NEW T-REX 550X is definitely a significant leap forward in performance, enhanced by increased power, the integration of numerous innovative design changes, and lightweight improvements. The T-REX 550X performance is outstanding!
The brand new FL Flybarless Rotor Head System utilizes an extremely low CG design, reducing 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 550X 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. In addition, the T-REX 550X's lightweight design is 200~250g (Combo250g/Super Combo 200g) lighter than our pervious model, this effectively increase the power and improves flight time.
The T-REX 550X utilizes the powerful 730MX(960KV/4230) motor and our RCE-BL100A Brushless ESC which both are highly efficient providing superior power, improving the performance of the 6S power system. The NEW DS820M/DS825M high voltage brushless servos are extremely efficient and out perform other servos in this class. To protect these servos the new high-end CNC aluminum case function as a heat sink allowing the servos to operate at a lower temperature.
With improved performance and increased power, as well as included top of the line electronic equipment. The new T-REX 550 X will arouse your enthusiasm and devotion to the T-REX Family.
Manufactured with durable lightweight fiber material, and utilizing an engineered aerodynamic design, the Align Advanced Lightweight Canopy forms a protective shield for the entire machine. The Align T-Rex 550X is 200g lighter than our pervious model.
Landing skid is tilted 5 degree forward which improves crashworthiness.
The 550EFL Flybarless Rotor Head System utilizes extreme low CG design to effectively reduce resistance during 3D maneuvers while increasing flight responsiveness and precision. In addition, the high quality of the helicopter design is accented with red anodized and stainless color precision machined metal parts.
Align Advanced Metal Swashplate firmly connects to rotor grips preventing rotor head disengagement during intense flight. Two linkage ball mounting holes provided to improve control of system movement. A resolution hole or larger movement reaction hole can be selected based on your flying preference or style.
Brand new 730MX motor is especially designed for power upgraded T-REX 550X, normally found in 700 class high spec helicopter, that enthusiasts can clearly feel the dramatic increase in power and torque, while taking advantage of its higher efficiency, lower current and temperature benefits. Features with high torque, high efficiency, stable and quiet.
The high-end Microbeast PLUS 6-axis gyro with 32-bit high-speed processor is much precise and superior in programming and computing allow for significant handling performance and delicate response. In addition, the Microbeast PLUS gyro is vibration-reducing improvement and strongly reduce the effects of the vibration to flying performance.
32-bit fast-speed processor.
High quality MOSFET.
Adjustable BEC function, supply power to receiver and servos.
Superior governor feature.
Support 730MX Brushless Motor, Extreme 3D Flight.
Support USB interface to PC for firmware updating.
Designed specifically for helicopters, utilizing a brushless motor for fast speed, high torque, and super efficient reaction time, allowing the Align 700X to perform faster with precision. The brand new DS820M high voltage brushless servo is equipped with a new CNC machined aluminum case. This new aluminum case exhibits top of the line servo aesthetics while providing a heat sink function for the best protection of the servo.
3K Main frame features; embedded battery mounting rails, integrated magazine structure, and a latch design which provides great protection for the battery while providing a convenient way for mounting. This unique use of open spaces within the frame creates a rigid frame and is aesthetically pleasing.
Integration of CNC Aluminum alloy and POM Polyacetal which can lower friction between the linkage ball and the Metal Anti Rotation Bracket. In addition, this new design increases the efficiencies and accuracy of the servos.
Use 600 Tail Boom. Carbon Fiber Tail Control Rod is practical and improves the helicopters tail control.
Durable and Precise! Manufactured with stronger material, the Torque Tube Front Drive Gear is more durable and precise. The stronger material reduces the probability of gear striping during flight or damaging the gear as a result of a crash.
The newly designed dual point supported tail pitch assembly delivers slop free performance while improving rudder resolution and precision.

As always, any products I need, I come to helidirect.com, and it comes fast. This heli I've saw others build and fly which drew me towards a purchase and I'm not disappointed. This is only my 2nd build(TB40) as I always purchased RTF. Took only 2 days. Book clear, easy build, take your time. Maiden satisfying. This is my largest bird now out of 7 heli's and bigger is better!
I'm very happy with my purchase of a Trex 550x heli kit. It was delivered right on time with no problem. The kit is in great condition and more than I expected. I will be purchasing more now from Helidirect.
Just received from the Black Friday sales event and this kit was a good buy at the regular price. Always impressed with the quality Align puts into their Super Combo's, can't be beat. Although there was already a lot of useful information on the 550x, Heli Direct was helpful with a couple of questions that I had, and always fast shipping.
Align T-REX 550X Dominator Super Combo (DS820M/DS825M Servos)
Very nice
This is a great helicopter to build and to fly. It needs few, if any, upgrades out of the box. The included electronics are top quality. The crashes I have had have been affordable to repair.
Replaced a Raptor 50 with this one. Great flyer. Easy to assemble and setup.
The HeliDirect delivery was prompt, and the Super Combo Kit arrived with no damage or missing parts. Very please with the quality of everything and the nice packing and shipping work.
Ive been flying a 550x since it first came out and it has been a very solid machine. I liked it so much i just bought another one cause of a crash that made the cost of repairing my old one only 200$ less then buying a nice fresh one. This heli is a little heavier then something like a logo or goblin, but unless you are a pro pilot, you wont notice it. I like torque tube tails over belted even though its seems that everything is moving towards belted tails. Im not a big fan of the microbeast that comes with it. Since moving to the ikon2, i realized the microbeast is ok, but it requires more setting it up right and the governor function doesnt play well with the esc no matter how much you tweak the soft start settings and governer gain control. I did fly it with the microbeast fine up until a month ago, but the ikon2 was easier and more effective to lock the heli down. Even though the stats say that the servos are good for 8.4 volts, i would recommend not setting the esc past 7.4. Maybe the stock esc cant handle outputting 8v underload or the servos cant take 8v. I tested the output voltage of the bec and it was 8.1 volts, but both times that i had set the bec to 8v i had a servo permantly stop working. Is it the best handeling heli, maybe not. Although, you would have to spend quite a bit more money to get that little bit better performance
The kit came well boxed and was straight forward to assemble. I would recommend sanding the edges of the carbon fiber frame before assemble at the two side servos if running servo wires inside the frame. This will help prevent chafing on the servo wires. The build was very satisfying.
