I'm looking for a mini to fly around in a place that is a little tight for my Trex 450's. As I search the web I see:

- Gaui EP100 and EP100Pros
- Shogun Midget Pro
- Mini Zoom Pro V1 and V2
- Pocket Zoom

A lot of websites have an AKA with even more names. Some have plastic frames. Some CF horizontal, some CF vertical (like a Trex), some plastic heads, some aluminum heads.

When I first got a Trex I thought that was confusing, but this beats it hands down!

I'm sure someone has all this figured out. Is it one company making them or multiple rip-offs? Which is "best" and who is the best source for parts. Are the parts interchangeable?

If this has been answered before ( I searched around a bit, but didn't see anything ), please aim me in the right direction.

Thank you.

Readyheli.com has the Gui 200.

I just ordered the long tail boom blades and belt for my dusty EP100 that has been benched all summer. Ordered the parts at 12:17 on Friday and got shipment confimation @ 1:28 same day. Those guys ROCK!

Getting cold now so it's time to dust the EP100 off.

I only flew the 100 three times before the belt broke(used) but it seemed under powered. I have seen some videos of Kyle Stacy flying the 200 on 2S power with a GY401 on board and that thing KICKED!
