I am building Trex600N Pro kit. Is the stock swash plate that comes with the kit good, or is it better to get the newer version swash that comes with washout? I have heard different stories, but you know sometimes that is only hear say from other people. Any feed back would be helpfull.

all kits should now have the improved align swash. unless the kit has been sat on your local stores shelf for a very long time

I have a load of spots... two of which are white heads

I di purchase this kit back in Feb-08 from heliproz, They stated to me that it had all the newer up dated parts, I just noticed that on the newer swash, they stated 3D my just is plain, but it has the align logo.

then its most likely the swash that came with the early kits.the upgraded align one is a lot better as the standard one (which i belive is the one you have) will tend become loose very quickly.

If you are going to buy one then the Quick UK one,lighter and more pitch possible if wanted,set screws to tighten up bearing if it ever needed to be (doubtful!).Quality.

Skip the Align swash plate, it just sucks. I have been through 3 of them, including the new 3d one. They all develop slop very quickly. Do yourself a favor and get the Quick UK.

Im still flying with the original swash that came with my kit, which I bought one of the earliest kits and its still good. I also have a new super pro and the swash in that kit is the same. I think align quality is the best out there but thats only my 2 cents.

Sounds good. I have the stock one, and I purchased newer one, which I purchased two of them, because they had overstock special. I have heard alot of people still using the stock wit hno problems at all. I did change to a full metal head, I have to say i do like greyish stock color of the parts, since that is a different color, the black is also nice
