Ok after buying X-mas presents there is Bonus money left over for a Trex. I have decided to buy from Modefo as he has a good rep. MAJOR question is: What motor battery combo? I have been reading the Trex section for a couple months and am truly overwhelmed with all the motor/ESC combos used. I have had many nitro helis over the years and had an electric before LiPo's came about. I realise there are many combos that work but I want one that will work for me. I won't be doing any Tick-Tocks with the Trex but I'll throw her about a bit. Also what is a good micro receiver?
Motor?
ESC?
Servos- 3 HS56 & HS50 on tail
Gyro- 401
Radio-10X
Blades-?
Swash upgrade- Yes
Linkage upgrade- Yes
I have used the search function and the motor/ESC combos are truly daunting. I realise this is subjective but I'm really just interested in a proven motor/ESC combo. I can always buy a different set later. I just don't want to buy every one trying to get a reasonably powerful setup.
Thanks in advance

I was in the same situation, I finaly just went with what one guy , that I trust, told me, Knowing that even he was new at the trex game, anyway, I just went with the align 400L, it is cheap, it runs hot but it keeps on truckin. I went with the TP2100's and the align esc 25amp. I am happy with it. I beat on it a bit too. all the rest of the stuff is just std common sense of what ya like as far as servo's etc go, the swash upgrade is a must in my oppinion. I will be trying the ccpm shortly, and probably that nuero motor and 1320 4s battery. so tempted! I am glad I went the route I did, I am learning alot about all this Lipo stuff, been a great ride and a good break from my Fury's

The Berg 6 is a great receiver since you will be using the 401. My opinion on ESC is the PH 35. Make things easier on yourself and get the usb link.
