I run a HDX 450 and I use the GY401 its pretty rock solid on almost any setup from what I hear at my local field. You can find that GYRO on Raptop 90 down to the microhelis. Stick with GY401 you're familiar with it, and its solid. Once I got that dialed in my tail just sticks no weathervane :)

GY401 +S 9650 is the most widely recommended 3D gyro setup for a T450. There is a new contender, the Logictech 2100T which is smaller, ligher, cheaper but still SMM technology and getting great reviews. Still, since you are familiar with the 401 it's probably the best bet for you.

I heard about the Logitech 2100T but I can't seem to find them anywhere. My LHS doesn't even know what it is, not that means anything. I mean I can't even find them on eBay.

kgfly you have any links to reviews and sellers? Thanks.

I still can't find it for sale on eBay do you have a trusted seller/dealer you can purchase one from?

Logictech (note the 'c', not Logitech). Do a google search for 'logictech 2100T' and you will get hits to lots of reviews and several sellers. I cannot recommend any seller as I have not used any of the ones listed in the first page.
