So...I am looking at maybe getting a Logo and I have a questions I hope one of you can answer for me.

How many of the parts for the 500 & 600 are interchangeable?

We may be swapping our fleet from Align to Logo and we may not get the same sized birds. But I have heard the frame is the same.

Thank you!

Hey Becky,

Yeah, the frames, landing gear, and I believe mainshaft/maingear
assembly. (Belt/mainshaft pulley is different on each, I think)

The canopy, blade grips, boom are all bigger on the 600.

Also believe a lot of tail/head linkages will interchange, along w
same tailshaft.

In a nutshellthe frames, drive train, mainshaft, and everything up the head including the mainblock are the same. Spindle, grips, all bearings inside the grips, and for the most part everything from the boom back is different except for the tail hub and pitch slider assembly. The tail boom diameter is 25mm on the 600 and 20mm on the 500 which is why they don't share tail boxes.

Here's a list of the parts that it takes to convert a 500 to a 600. From that you can see where all the differences are.

Tail section:
MIK4228 Carbon Tail Rotor Case Set for LOGO 600
MIK4098 Tail Boom LOGO 600-3D
MIK4097 Carbon Tail Boom Brace LOGO 600 3D
MIK4096 Support For Horizontal Fin
MIK1919 Cap Screw M3x40
MIK4091 Logo 600 Tail Boom Holder
MIK4081 Driven Belt
MIK4080 Carbo Horizontal Fin
MIK4074 Hardened Tail Rotor Shaft LOGO 600 3D
MIK4073 Carbon Control Rod For Tail LOGO 600 3D

Head section:
MIK0915 Main Blade Holder 14mm
MIK0841 Main Blade Grip Thrust Bearing Spacer
MIK0840 Main Blade Grip Thrust Bearings 8x16x5mm
MIK1980 Socket Head Cap Screw M5x12 and washers
MIK0954 Ball Bearing 8x16x5mm (2 bearings per pack, you need 4 bearings total)
MIK4050 Washer for Blade Holder 14mm
MIK1961 Cap Screws M3x35
MIK1974 Blade Holder Screw M4x32



Misc:
MIK4206 Front Canopy Support Set (optional)
MIK2496 Skid Pipes (8mm)
MIK4107 Spacer Set For Tail Rotor LOGO 600-3D (not positive if the little plastic spacers for the tail shaft ship with the 600 tail case set)
600 canopy of choice

Mainshaft pulley is the same, tail shafts are different.

Something to bear in mind, if you're looking to keep all the parts the same between different birds, is that you can buy a logo 600 and merely shorten the boom with the 500se belt to run 6s and 550mm to 600mm blades.

Regards,
Nathan
