I finally bought an E7
« on: December 15, 2012, 05:41:39 AM »
Well I finally get to say I own an E7 today. I picked up a very low hour E7 airframe with the limited edition green canopy. I should have it flying early in the new year. I am really excited to get it flying. I have wanted one for over a year now. The specs will be the following;

CC Ice 2 160HV
Scorpion HK III 4035-450 with 14T pinion
CGY750 with Hobby Wing sensor
R6208 SBus Rx
BLS156HV cyclic
BLS256HV tail
TP 1900mAh 2S Rx LiPo
4500mAh 12S
Rail 696
Rail 105

Here are some pics...

 Scott,
  Well All I can say is, It's about time!! ;) Congrats on the Purchase, She is a real bute!! also looks like you have the right idea what to put into it. If you need any thing what so ever don't hesitate to ask. and I recommend just performing a close inspection of the airframe and Drive line components. Just want to make sure everything is correct, Can be very easy to get one and get in a hurry to get it in the air and miss something Obvious.(Taking things in consideration" who Built it"). The Tech/Build Tips in the "E" section are a must, Breeze through them and the Manual closely. And Last but not least,  Welcome To The Synergy Family....!!! ;)

Best Regards,

Kevin

Thanks guys, I am really happy with the purchase. The guy that owned it had this machine as his backup E7. He has been flying for 15+ years and represented Australia twice in F3C so the build standard is great.

I am itching to get some batteries and a power supply so I can fly it.

Glad to have another Synergy. After putting the N9's on the shelf I have felt a bit sad.

I will update everyone once it is flying.

Well I finally got the E7 finished on the weekend ;D. After getting all the required items and some quiet time from the family the E7 was test flown on the weekend ;D 8).

I currently have 3 sets of Revolectrix 60C 5000mAh packs. What can I say but wow. The handling was amazing and so smooth. The CGY750 with v1.31 and Hobby Wing phase sensor was sensational. I took it easy because I am bedding in the new LiPo's. I could easily tell that this machine is fast.

The Rail 116mm tails are very quiet with alot of authority. I currently have CY Radix 710 FBL but they will be replaced with Rail 716's as soon as they turn up at ArkRC.

FBL Rotors battery tray and titanium links are on order.

I am buying some more LiPo's to get maximum air time at the field with this machine.

It is great to be flying a Synergy again. I can tell already that this will soon be my favourite heli to fly.

I will put up some pics when the Rail mains are on.
