Default Will a blue dfc head impress the ladies??



In all seriousness... Does the blue dfc head and swash look any good on the 450 pro v2 (stock canopy), or should I just stick with the black??

Clearly, we are dealing with the important topics here!! Haha

I dunno, a blue head on a short shaft... not something that interests me.

The ladies may go for it though.

I can't stand blue, it really clashes with some canopy and what not, black or silver heads go with anything

Not DFC, but blue swash, head and tail. This was the 600N I mentioned earlier.

I kinda went the route of changing my 450 SE V2 to a Pro and actually chose to keep/go the blue route as it was a little different then everything else and personally, at least on the 450, I really liked it.

While it doesn't have the DFC head, if you want to see how the blue looks against the stock Pro V2 canopy, you can have a look at it in my profile.

my trex 500 was the first Align that had black anodized metal, I really liked it, and have gravitated to black stuff since then... The 600NSP was the next black head, then the 450Pro!

Back when the Trex 450 SE was the rage, they also sold a gray head, that's what I bought to "upgrade" my 450SA, and black CF frames too!

I have just installed a blue DFC head and matching blue tail unit on my 450 and the ladies go wild. It looks great and they chase me around my flying field squeeling...

Here ya go crash tester. A couple of pics of my new DFC head install. Decided the 450 had to go fbl like my 600. I have only had a couple of flights since setup but seems to be flying very nicely. I am amazed, $60 for DFC head & $50 for copterx fbl unit. And I sold my quark gyro for $70 so upgrade only cost me 40 bucks.

Cheers,

Harty

I ordered the black dfc but the blue dfc head arrived, I was going to send it back but then looked at the blue at the top of the Pro V2 stock canopy and decided to go ahead with it. I will add a picture tonight after work.

I like it with the stock canopy. My wife saw your pic and said "your helicopter will never impress me, but the blue does look better"! Hahaha I guess that will have to do

Thanks styndall that was exactly what I was looking for.

I think a blue swash would be too much though.

No problem, it has really grown on me now, so what I initially thought was an issue is fine by me now. It does look better than the poor pictures show because the blue on the head and the canopy are really well matched.
