I've heard of someone successfully using the tail, and I think I read where someone is using the head. If this works though, it's on my list!

I went to a show in NY today and they had a 400 with an aluminum head and tail as well as carbon tail. The guy there from Horizon Hobby said it should be out in about a month. All this from Eflite.

Hey there, Mr Rossi, just joined the heli freak forum, I did it, the sonix head does fit (with mods) and so does the tail gearbox assembly. Mail me for details !!

[Mr Rossi]

:happyd:nanaboboIt's my fault, sorry guys, now everyone can enjoy this heli without head slop !!!!!

It does work !!!!!!

[Heli Jim]

So, what mods did you have to do to make this head work?

Did you do the TREX head or the Sonix?

What improvements did you see?

I'd be interested to know what it took to make this work. It looks like a gread
addition to an already pretty good heli.

Looks like main shaft is almost too short.

Was it difficult to keep the swash plate from contacting the shaft collar or pushing the washout up too close to the head block?

[vboy55]

this is stuff that fits a t rex 450 just have to reverse swash and shave the main shaft about 1/8 inch works really good and upgraded to hitec 55 tail servo and its rock solid!!!!:lol:

[gmd]

is this the stock head and tail for trex 450 or the V2? Or does it matter?

[Carpman68]

i think it goes better in silver

Would be nice to detail's Mr Rossi

[LjArpin]

That MRH looks sweet. I bet its the ultimate flyer, but what about added weight, how much heavier are the two from one another???

[Mr Rossi]

I had to cut 1/8th of an inch from the top of the main shaft and then change the anti-rotation lug. All this was done on the Sonix head. Be careful with the pitch set up, a full +11/-11set up can be achieved, but this takes a little time and effort.:YeaBaby:

[Mr Rossi]

Hey Vboy, that is the Sonix 3dx Head, NOT a T-REX !

Hey there GreenBaron, you can use this setup for a full +11/-11 set up, just make sure to use the DX6i's end point adjustments to limit pitch swash travel, as we all know what binding servos can do to heli !!!!!!

Hey there VBoy, would be real good to swap some notes with you on this setup, and this would assist all the users out there. this is such a good forum, everyone just wants to help each other, unlike some I could mention ! PM me

I have a complete Trex/CopterX CNC Alum Head and Tail if someone is interested in doing this mod to their Blade 400. You will not be able to use the swash, so you would either need to use the stock Blade400 swash or purchase the correct Alum Swash.

Since you will not be able to use the Mainshafts on the Blade400, I will sell both for $100 shipped if you want them.

Just looking on the HH site forthe boom length and saw this

$35.99 [MHEB4002BG]
Aluminum Bell Crank, Silver: Blade 400
$18.04 [MHEB4026]
They have no image and show as out of stock, seem to be from Microheli.
