for sale my much loved T-Rex 450 upgraded XL.

This 450 started life as a 450 XL. It is currently equipped with:

 

Align silver Carbon Fibre frame.

Brushless motor upgrade (can't remember the make but it was a doozy :) ) 3550kv

Align Metal swash (improves 3D performance)

Align Metal fly bar carrier

align metal blade holders

align inner fly bar bits.

(a complete metal head)

Align 325 Pro woodies (Main Blades). brand new and a set of carbon blades

Align Carbon Fibre Tail blades.

carbon fibre tail stabiliser

Digital tail servo (HDS-877)

Supatec Naro BB Servos on Collective, Ailerons and Pitch

csm hlg200 heading hold Gyro

Castle Creations Phoenix-45A programable ESC (Fitted with Deans Ultra connector)

Shulze Alpha 835s FM Receiver (next best thing to PCM!)

 

What is also included is:

 

Castle Creations PHX-Link (for programming the ESC via USB - needs software download)

Spare Tail boom

Spare white plastic tail fin

Spare Flybar rod

Spare plastic tail case

The heli has been crashed a few times (damn thumbs!), however through my upgrade process I have replaced all the parts that ever had impact with the earth. for the better

This is still one of the best 450 size electric helicopters money can buy. It will handle a fairly stiff breeze (if the pilot also knows how!). All that is needed to get this heli flying is a battery and charger and suitable FM transmitter.

 

this is effectivley a 450 se spec now frame wise apart from alloy tail, but better motor and esc.

 

im looking for £250. it will come with the canopy in the last picture as it is better quality and the other one is cracked. i sold the other 450 that was on here the other week. im now selling this one to help me fund a F16 ducted fan jet.

i have combined the alloy bits from both heli's to complete the head, so as you see them here they are spread out between the two, also the carbon fiber fins from the last picture are now on the heli for sale as they are the best ones.

Ive just started learning to fly choppers, and Ive stacked my contra rotation one about 10 times lol, this ones way out of my league but Ive got a mate who might be interested. He ironically smashed up his f16 ducted fan last week, for bystanders it was hilarious!

did he do much damage? a lot of people seem to start on planes then move to heli's, I have done it the other way round, a couple of people in my club fly planes and reckon if you can fly heli's there a dodle.

Yeah, its a total loss, fooked lol. The actual plane (in polystyrene) is cheap really... Look at the Ripmax catalogue. I can get one trade for you if you like :) Heli's are a nightmare, even indoors!

 

cool, how much? I can get the plane kit with motor and esc for £89.99, but then i need servos, receiver and battery on top so probably looking at about £200 i would have thought. thats from a model shop
