Ultimate 50 conversion?

[Mikey D]

I am not an expert with the Ely-Q brand. I have recently aquired an Ultimate 50, and was wondering if this can be updated to a competition?

Besides the carbon frames, what else is different?

The frame. the entire rotor head. and the tail rotor. It's almost a different heli.

Thanks, as I said the Ultimate was given to me. Relatively speaking the cost of a Competition vs Trex 600 seems to be a wash (roughly 270.00).

I think I will fly it in all its glory for what it is. Once done I will either donate it to our club or give it to a newbe.

Mikey d gave it to me! Picked it up today first time doing nitro. I think I have everything I need, would like to find a good deal on a gyro... Can't wait to join the nitro club!

Thanks Mikey d
