Getting rid of Blade 400 Who wants it?

[Leftyatm]

I know this should go in the classified section but there is no specific blade 400 section, and I want to get rid of it asap.
I am selling a blade 400 with approximately 20-25 flights on it. It also has 1 crash and I am having a issue with the pitch servo. It frustrates me, Im in the process of putting together funds for some more T-rex builds so needless to say I want to get rid of it. After the crash, I replaced the 2 rear servos with brand new ones (yes the new pitch servo is having issues but I think it's in the radio or rx, I dont want to mess with it to find out) main shaft, feathering shaft, blades, flybar and paddles. I am keeping the radio so I am selling just the heli itself with the charger, battery and blade holder. Make me an offer. I'm not sure how much it is worth by itself. It is in great condition other than the servo issue which again is an easy fix. PM me with offers.

Someone PM'd me with an offer, I directed them your way. Good luck and let me know if you dont get a good enough offer.

Rex's (plural)? so why does a rex owner buy a blade 400? just curious.

I have a better question. Why does a Trex owner by a Blade 400 and then decide to go back to the Trex? :)

T-Rex owners - OUCH!! :YeaBaby:

Dont have one and never will, but I love this bird.....and my 600 E-smart (if it dont catch on fire again) cant get over the sound of the blades smacking the air!

I have had 2 blade 400's. It started with an esky honey bee. Very basic fixed rotor and great to learn on. Loved it. Saw a blade 400. Went with it. Liked it at first til I realized there was much much better out there. I was still new at the time. So I then saw the cp pro and loved that so bought it. Put all kinds of money into the pro only to find it made it fly like crap. I got pissed off at that thing and sold it. I then started to get a knowledge for the hobby and looked at t-rexes. I at the time gave the blade 400 to my dad and ordered myself a trex 450 se v2. While waiting for that to come in the mail, I wanted to get a second blade 400 to really learn to fly on a bigger one so my old man and I could learn/crash together (this was also before I learned of the cheap craftsmanship of e-flite products. So the 450 came....loved it so much. Loved it so much that I sold off my e-flite and purchased a twins kit that came with a second 450 and a 600 cf. While building those, I was practicing loops and fast forward flight and put my old mans blade down. Rebuilt it and am just not happy with it. I like the rexes much more anyway. Now I'm dipping into nitro with a purchase of the super pro and a 3rd 450 that will now be my old man's. I told him since I crashed his blade 400 I'd give him a new 450 blinged out. Sorry for the long post but you ask and you shall receive:)

Either way it's still an ok helicopter I have just been spoiled with my rexes. And for those of you and I know there are a lot that love the blade it's a great second heli to have or a spare heli to have when your main heli is down. For $200 obo I don't think it's a bad deal.

Sorry, but I totally disagree with everything you said. IMHO the Blade400 is a better heli. I have had Honey Bee Kings, Blade CP Pro, Trex/CopterX 450 SE V1, Dragonus 450 and a Blade 400. I like my Bladed 400 so much I sold off my Trex/CopterX 450. I fell it performs better, has smoother collective and cyclic and is lighter. Put the CNC Alum parts on a Blade 400 and it will rival a Trex SE v2 no problem.

There is NOTHING cheap about the quality of a Blade 400. It is a very well made and VERY WELL DESIGNED helicopter. I have had two very hard crashes with my Blade 400. One of them I drove the heli into the ground INVERTED at a very high rate of speed. Nothing in the head broke. Not a single part.

But, you will never sway the "Align Followers" from the path. So, enjoy your Trex :)

So if you like them so much why don't you cowboy up and buy mine!;)
With your T-rex/copter x it wasn't a true t-rex was it. So I bet if you flew a true t-rex you'd notice a slight difference. But either way the blade makes you happy the t-rex makes me happy. As long as we're both happy and enjoying the hobby that's all that counts right?

And on your opinion that's great and I'm being serious. I respect it, that's what makes this country a wonderful thing. So I'll agree to disagree.:thumbup:

I have flown a True Blue Trex.. V1 and V2. There was NO noticable difference between my CopterX/Trex hybrid and either of those.

Why would I need to buy yours? I already have one. No need for two. :)
