This documents the Align T-rex 500 FBL I bought 2nd hand
Parts
- Align t-rex 500ESP with 500 3G FBL modification
- Motor: Align RCM-BL500MX
- Servos (collective): 3x Align DS-510
- Servo (tail): Align DS-650
- ESC: Castle Link Phoenix ICE 75
- Batteries: 2x Turnigy 6s 3.0 Ah
- Still needed:
- Receiver
- FBL controller
- Receiver and FBL controller can be combined as Spektrum AR7200BX (AR7100 + BeastX)
- Satellite receiver: helicopter of size 500 and bigger need an extra receiver because the helicopter may shield or interfere with the reception of the main receiver.
- Plugs for batteries and esc
- Spektrum DX8
- Came with Ar8000. I traded that one for some nice parts
- Came with Spektrum TM1000
- The only sensor included is the tempature sensor (which I don't really need)
- To be fully useful I need a cable from the TM1000 to the receiver (for power and receiver telemetry), a battery voltage sensor and an RPM sensor.
- XT60 connectors (5 pairs)
- Battery charger
- Power supply
- SPMA9570 Aircraft Telemetry Flight Pack Voltage Sensor
- SPMA9558 Aircraft Telemetry Brushless RPM Sensor
- SPMA9550 2.5" Aircraft Telemetry Data Lead
- Orange Receiver
Work
- Battery charger blew up
- Soldering XT60 connectors to batteries and ESC
- Soldering battery voltage telemetry to ESC
- Soldering motor RPM telemetry to ESC
- Main head block seems bent
