I got this HK 250gt kit (I believe it is a Align 250se clone) a couple of weeks ago and it came with a plain looking canopy that was cracked. So I started looking for a new 250 canopy and really didn't see any I liked. Then I started looking at the 300X canopies and found several that I like the color scheme of. My question is does anyone know if a 300X canopy will fit the 250 I have? If they do fit I would change the 3 into a 2, the first 0 into a 5 and leave the last 0 and X.I think it would be easy to do. I think it would also look good if it fit.
Thanks in advance
Edit: well if no one knows if a 300x canopy will fit l might just be a guinea pig and get one to see. This thing is a mutt anyway, it has HK frame, head, tail case, Align bottom plate, skids,main gear, boom, E-flite servo's, ESC and a Copter X motor.

Rob it does fit! It's a bit big but still looks pretty good. You'll have to trim off the top portion of the canopy to make room for the head though, especially if you're fly-barred.

Thanks so much for the reply with the picture Firehawk! I was curious if it fit and how it would look. Mine is Flybarred so looks like I would have to do some modification, not a problem though. It does look a tag to big but not to bad. There are so many more color options on the 300x canopys. A lot of the guys I fly with don't know the difference between a Trex 250 and a Blade 300X anyway

and it want bother me with it wearing a 300 canopy.
