| Nice little mod dude! It actually looks pretty good on it... Nice to have a little switch up. I wish they would redesign the 600 canopy so it is just a bit more pointed, then I believe it would be sweet. JR generally on their machines from my experience has always had the best looking canopies.
As for the quality, of course it's a good kit, it's a JR. But is it going to help you fly any better? Nope! LOL I can't understand the flack some give the rex. But then again maybe it's just me. I have been into hobbies for a long time. And not calling anyone out, but one person that commented has his rex in the picture gallery and the swashplate is on wrong(the align symbol is supposed to go towards the rear on that version of the kit, and also, the push pulls aren't setup at all on the controls). Just some observations, but I have had JR kits in the past and have loved them. But I love the rex's now also(and if you know what your doing, I am sure they fly just as well. All of mine track greaat, hover extremely smoothly and flip wonderfully. But that goes back to how you build em and set them up). I have actually been told that mine fly like a larger machine. I haven't had a problem with either, with the exception of small things(simply had to replace the stock starter adapter on the previous JR machines with the KSJ and the one way lockup on my first rex but after discovering triflow, haven't had an issue since on the other 3 that I have).
Both great kits and from what I looked at in the manual of the viber, there are of course some similarities and differences. Most machines these days are culmination of years of developing these things and everyone copies everyone it seems. So apples to oranges IMHO.
But your canopy looks nice on the 600N!
Every time I fly I loose more hair! LOL |
