After an ugly crash with my T-rex 450 I managed to strip an Hitec 65MG (as in metal gear) for the first time. It was a new milestone for me. I was going to order a new set of gears from Elefun, but they were out of stock. I contacted them and was told the distributor was out of stock. It could take weeks before I could have the bird back in the air. Something I didn’t want to risk before the next indoor RC meeting.

It all boils down to my order over the seas which just arrived. Let’s take a look, shall we?

I had some minor problems with my new T-rex 450 SE v2, the belt kept jumping off. I solved it by removing the idle-pulley, but now have I bought a replacement for it which looks to do the job.

Three servos for my old t-rex 450, one tail servo and two for cyclic. Also added servo grease for the servo I will be changing gear on.

The transmitter (later refereed as TX) battery, 2200mAh 11.1v Kong Power battery. I’ve read about someone running theirs for 5 weeks without charging. I guess mine won’t last that long since I use my TX on the simulator as well.

Almost forgot to add the charger and lipo. This is the best charger I have ever used. I might do a review of it some day.
