the best thing to do is get the mikado trex head kit for it and save your self all the headaches trying to get the align head to work.

I fly my 600e flybarless and used the Align head for the conversion and it flies fine with a CSM system. Here are a few pics. The head converstion is detailed at trextuning.com in their CSM flybarless article. I have sinced changed to a link directly from the swash to the grip but haven't flown it yet. Using the balls from the Trex500 in the 600 grips makes the angle straighter when going directly from swash to grips. Using the upper mixing arms allows you to decrease the ratio so that grip travel isn't too high. The trextuning conversion uses all stock parts.

I'll echo ink and vote for the mikado trex conversion head. It has everything you need, and it works perfectly out of the box with the stock align headblock. The links and rods are super beefy, as are the grips. I also recommend the quick uk swash. I had a nasty experience of having my align swash LOCK UP in flight - the ball galled up and siezed to the plastic liner. So the Quick UK swash is well worth the price IMHO. Lucky for me, I was able to get it back on the ground safely... No pile of dubro for me that day!

leading edge works better, better pop at center stick

Stability. By being driven from the leading edge, the feathering won't lead to any flutter problems particularly if the main grip ball is on axis with the main shaft and you're using soft(ish) dampers. Do a search on correcting and non-correcting delta.
