Hmmmm looks like a crash cost... BUT hey... I would give it a try!
Battery space looks worse???

Interesting looking but not quite I was expecting.
Perhaps the best thing might be that because of the way this frame is made it might allow us to further experiment with mounting batteries by fabricating some new pieces.
Need to have one in hand before passing final judgement.

Hey Guys
What do you think the price of this carbon frame will be?
OR
What would you be willing to pay for this if it includes a better or adjustable battery mounting tray?
Just curious as i know people pay good money for the Trex 450 upgraded Carbon frames.
I am very interested in this frame i just dont like the looks of any injection molded main frame.
Cheers

As for me the best frame for trex450 is G10 frame from HDX (Helidirect) It costs only 65USD :lol:

So you think for a heli this size you would expect to be paying 90USD plus for G10?
And 150 ish for Carbon fiber?
Interesting to see what Gaui sells thier Carbon Frame For

In my oppinion 65-70 usd is a good price for G10 frame!
The main advantage of the bird is it's cheep price for the heli of that size :)
