Problems right away. The silver plug that goes under the vertical fin was missing. The bag with the tail blades arrived open, not sealed, so the silver plug was lost. that was the first RMA issue. Then after connecting the rear assembly and installing th emain shaft, the autorotaion gear and tail drive gear did not mesh correctly (too much gap). Impossible to fly with that condition. Now waiting to hear from Hobbyking how they will fix the problem. I spent over $300 for this heli kit, motors, ESC, servos, and all I have is an unbuilt kit that's missing a part and main gears that don't work.

Hi, my kit came with tail housing without thread on vertical fin mount and main gear very eggformed so main gear is useless, also missing tail control rod guides and canopy broken, the rest is good quality for the money and a good stable helicopter even for begginers. I love to fly this 550 size heli for its great stability and also fast and responsive commands.

I got this model as was pleased with the overall look and quality. Unfortunately on my first flight the rear pulley gear stripped in flight and she spun out of control. Damage was severe lost two Futaba 9252 Servos, RJX Carbon Fibre blades, tail boom, tail rotor assembly, tail blades, canopy.

My recommendation to anyone buying this is to change out all the gears and links to align links and gears.

Good things:

Top tip: Order some extra gears and a GF canopy with the kit!

Tail boom case slips a bit in the case. Fixed by drilling a locating screw. Canopy was distorted in the box on opening and corrected by heat gun. All and all a good price. Looks awesome and has all the right stuff. Upgraded rear tail gear , main,anti rotation with align. The original were fairly good better than the 600gt I had purchased. 4 stars as a little extra mods required .

der 550er hier ist der beste Wurf aus der Serie,, ok die Haube ist Schrott aber die qualitt ist um einiges besser als bei der FBL-TT version. Obligatorischer sicherungschec,, wie immer,, keine beanstandung und auch sonst alles ok,,mit dem empfohlenen 100A K-Force Regler und dem Turnigy H600er motor /1100kv ist r ein zuverlssiger begleiter,, ok fr 3D profis wohl nicht die erste wahl,,, aber im F3C segment ist er spitze.
Und keine Haube war brauchbar geliefert worden, alle 4 stck. rissig , gebrochen ud vllig verzogen,, sowas sollte man nicht mitschicken... Mll hab ich eh genug.....

On the tail drive shaft assembly. The gear on the drive shaft was held in place using only super glue. The drive shaft has a flat machined into it which would be used for a set screw to lock the gear to the shaft. But there is no set screw used, the gear is nylon there is no brass collar for a set screw. So the gear was just glued to the shaft.

This started slipping on the very first minute of flight and I was hearing a clacking sound and loosing tail lock. Initially I wasn't sure what was wrong I thought maybe the belt was slipping and so I took the tail apart to make sure I'd assembled it correctly. The tail rotor blades are too narrow for the the tail blade root holders and I though maybe this was causing the clacking, I fabricated shims to correct that. But during hover the tail drive gear failed completely and the heli spun around and over on its side. I the found the tail drive gear had split in two. The clacking sound was the gear slipping on the shaft and the lump of super glue split the nylon gear. Total flight time about 6-8 minutes.

In addition when I disassembled to main rotor completely and found two screw holes in the tower had no threads and were held with thread locker only.
