Finally getting a Synergy

[KevinM]

Welcome!!!! I do love my E7 I'm positive you wont be disappointed!!

Thanks Mark for that info on the codes, will keep posting till I get past that for sure. Alan I cant wait till the SE comes in.  I have been around the Synergy family for some time now, well 1 year, I'm new at this Heli stuff.  Or better yet any kind of RC.  I currently fly a Trex 600ePro and just not satisfied with its flight. Been watching Synergy's at fun fly's and like what I see.  But the main selling point for me is "Team Synergy" and how great everyone is when you are around them.  And another point on Synergy was Matt and Amy, they are great folks and they take the time to say hello to you.  I could go on and on but don't want to make a book here. 

Now first question on E7se build, will I be able to build the airframe without any electronics to install or are there some steps that require components before installing?  Thanks again to all!!

Gary,
You can built the pretty much everything without having the electronics in hand.  I can't think of anything that would have to wait for the electronics right off hand. 


Cheers

Mounting the elevator servo requires removing the boom block or loosening the main bearing plates. But you can always build the tail as an assembly and simply hold off on mounting to the main frame until you have the elevator servo mounted.

Good point Chris. That is what I did when I sold an E7 a few weeks back.

Be sure to mount and center the servo horn on the elevator servo before mounting.  I typically hook it up to the flybarless unit to get it centered. The aileron and pitch servo can be done in place.

Gary,
I am not sure if Matt has the manual up yet for the SE. You can look at the E6//E7 manual and the Torque tube conversion manual and that should work. I believe Matt had a few finishing touches to do on the SE manual.
I am building my SE now.  If you have questions just post. A few of the team are also receiving theirs tomorrow I believe.

Cheers

Thanks Alan for the info on the manual.  Matt had told me that I would not have the manual to start and I did look at the E6/7 manual and I was lost.  I was going to download the TT conversion tonight and see what I got to do.  Thanks again and don't worry I will be asking Q's.

RichL, your welcome, I only spent just under 29 years in the Army and look at me now flying RC helps.  Got to love being retired!!!

Trying to avoid getting an E7 this year, but it is getting too tempting!
