Which 450 pro clone?

Can't decide between a HK clone or a Copter X.

I used to have a trex 450 pro but sold it.

I've ordered the hk450 tt pro and as soon as the esc isnin stock it'll get shipped out. From what I can see it looks like the hk450 tt pro is a reasonable deal! I'll let you know.

You can't go wrong with the HK 450 GT.. It is the strongest with carbon fibre frame and all metal head and tail..

The 450 Pro is nice too but the frame is much smaller and harder to fit components....

I have several of each... go with the 450 GT.. you won't regret it...

Here are two videos of my 2 450 GTs

I have 3 2Align and 1HK 450 Pro's. For the $ HK any day of the week!
But
You will have to get a Align main gear for the HK. The Align's are smother, lighter, faster but you will never know this if you only buy a HK so forget I told you this and you will be a very happy camper.
HK and Align are so close it is not even worth talking about it.

Tarrot are better quality than HK, so the rumour goes (I wouldnt know myself) . Just another option .
chances are the HK will be sold under several differnt brands anyway.

I just bought a used clone 450 heli, for less than the value of its elecrics alone . So these things seem to have low resale value , bargains to be had
if you dont mind taking a small risk with a used heli .

While waiting for the AXNs to come back into stock I purchased a HK450GTPro kit, really all I needed was a new head for my Titan 450 v2 but couldn't help myself.
My airforce is slowly growing through dupious financial logic, "better than being at the pub" is a winner all the time :lol: 8-)

dupious

dupious?
That sounds dubious!

You accept the tyranny of the state when it's not being applied to you, when it is: it's too late.

Only put that in to see if you were still around :lol: :lol: , that's my story anyway 8-)
Had a few hops yesterday, not happy. Changed out the centre shaft and drive gear, too much slop. Will also be changing the rotor blades, if I torque down the bolts to remove vertical movement the blades become rigid in the holders, just not enough surface contact at the mounting point.
Also I need to build a bigger training frame, the stock commercial ones are good for a 250 size, not for a 450, rotor blades can make contact with the surface before the trainer can help :o
More to come later if anyone is interested. Saving for a KD Flymentor, not sure if it will help :roll: :D
