Can You ID This Head?

MiseryQ · Nov 04, 2009, 08:50 PM

I bought this. mounted it and it's working pretty dern good I think.
But since I was sent the photos I've been trying to ID it and have found anything. I have learned some good stuff in general though.

It's a 450 head with grey plastic bits.
The closest I could find mentioned was the 450x but that had mechanical mixing.
This is CCPM. Has some grey control rod links but I found that Trex went back and forth on that for awhile(?).

Just curious is all. My "OCD" makes me want to know things like that o:

oh. Ignore the swashplate. That's Esky for sure q:

The gray parts are all Align T-Rex 450X parts (Radius arms, flybar seesaw, upper mixing levers, and half of the ball links)

The black parts are all Align 450XL parts (blade grips, lower mixing levers, and the flybar cage)

I'm not sure what the rotor hub is.

I can't see the washout base but if it's black it's XL, if it's gray it's X.

So that rotorhead is from 3 different helicopters: E-Sky, Align 450X & Align 450XL. Maybe a fourth if someone can identify the rotor hub.

The hub looks like it is from the 450XL.

The difference from mechanical mix, and Computer mix is from the swashplate down. Above the swashplate there the same.

Thanks guys.

I added the Esky part since it's now on a KingII.
I have some replacement parts on the way even though it's flying well.
