Align TB70 Bench Review 

I do like that servo layout! So nice to see Align out with new models! Time for a gasser super combo!!

Such a great review. Thank you waiting to see the flight and hearing your opinions

Awesome looking heli. Looks huge lol

Looking forward to a flight video from you on it :)

I really love your videos very informative. I saw one that you had gotten holder for long antena wires . where do you get them from

I have been waiting so long

I like big booms and i can not lie im sure my other brothers cant deny

Maybe your motor mount plate is upside down and that's why the motor is sitting higher Luca. Piscante test flew this for many weeks at Align factory/ flying field and the motor never rubbed on the canopy

Thanks for the review, is there any flexing of the front aileron bracket?have seen a video where the front bracket flexes way too much, maybe the heli wasn’t assembled correctly

never been interested in rc but this is cool af

Well definitely Align has aligned with the times (hehehehe). It looks good, very modern but still with the Align DNA. They are hard to beat on inexpensive combos, that's for sure. They still don't seem to pay attention to some small details. I find the issue with the canopy far too obvious and relatively easy to correct. Unless thinning the canopy from the motor to the swash makes it too fragile. I wonder what would happen if you just dremel a semi circle to allow the motor to clear. Definitely the weakest part is the canopy. Anyways. Glad they distanced themselves more from that "other company" they took "inspiration" from. Not a bad machine, and a good inexpensive option which I think is where Align shines. I wouldn't try one myself. Aside from being a die-hard Goblin fan, there are too many small details I don't like that Goblin absolutely nailed it, since they do always pay attention to those little details. Like the belt tensioner and of course a good canopy hehehe, aside from the design Align took inspiration from. Anyways, glad that you published this video as that's a good way to see this thing up close. Cheers!

Be careful of the 830 servo's Jeff - we've had 3 separate issues with them by 3 separate pilots in our club and 1 being so serious power draw caused a crash - use capacitors. I also know that there is a move afoot to now bundle 820's instead of the 830's.

Did you have a lot of slop in the tail rotor pushrod guide? My pushrod rattles in the guide.

How does this compare to the old 760 X in terms of weight?

One question Jeff, at what point do I calibrate the esc? I have the 200 amp HW

I was told that there is a problem with static buildup in the tailboom since the boom isn’t grounded to the frame. Have you run into that at all? I bought a TB70 kit with a HeliDirect 30% off an Align Heli kit coupon I won in a raffle at the San Diego fun fly, and I heard about this static issue afterwards.

Overall, do you prefer the TB70 or Trex700? Is it delivery the same idea of flight? Thanks!

Did this kit come with the 15mm drive belt update

Would this heli, setup as it is, run with a single 6S battery? Got one coming tomorrow. I don't plan on doing extreme stuff. Just slow circles and such. Thanks. Tried to find out as much about this on the internet, but thought I'd come to a trusted source!

Eat this piuma 🤩 12s

Can you do a review on the tb60

Will you be running 6s or 12s?

"Keeping it simplistic..and simple". Lol...i guess it cant be more simple than that lol

Im glad they got away from the dfc heads.

pretty much a very similar design to s.a.b

The front servo mount flexes and bends or breaks in a crash.

Hmm reminds me of something Italian 🤔

Now your talking!

These RC Helicopters are nice however, the hobby is being lost to many (myself included) due to lack of flying fields. I live in Atlanta GA and the clubs here are minimal to non existent. I cannot justify purchasing a thousand dollar helicopter with no place to fly it.

Typical Align... 'lets design a clean sheet model where the canopy doesn't fit over the motor'

i do not know how anyone can say the styling is upto date? its very dated. not talking mechanics,just the styling. the canopy is like a slab and the white lines on the frames! really. its not even ugly enough to be cool.

Why is this guy yelling?
