New Look after crash.

[TrEsPaSS]

After smashing almost stock b450 a couple weeks back I upgraded and played with the airbrush. Here is what I came up with:
-Scorpion 8 12t
-Complete aluminum head
-Complete aluminum tail assembly
-Cf main blades
-Cf tail boom
-Cf tail rotors
-Airbrushed frame / canopy

Wow, that looks great! Now for some pics of it in the air showing off your new bling!

That is badass, nice job! I'm less impressed by the crash, if the frame is still intact you haven't really smashed it. Hehe.

I'm kidding of course. Great paint job though, impressive.

Nice looking helicopter, just looking at it is almost as fun as flying it I bet. That canopy is cool!!

You might want to take the flybar weights off, I had mine all the way in, then I took them off and noticed no real difference.

Thats a lot of bling, now go put a beastx on it and it's a hop up ;-)

You must not have left the ground or have crazy expo. They make a big difference.

Learn to fly, I use no expo... they slow down cyclic response and roll rate, not for me! my heli flies smooth as could be without them in sport flying or 3D. I don't want slower controls and they absolutely are not needed. Like a batter warming up on deck, he puts that heavy donut on the end of the bat and starts some warm up swings but he does not go to bat with it on..

Ampdraw has the best prices probably $90 for the official blade 450x head and $200 for the Beastx. Your better off selling that 450 3d though than upgrading as you also need a 440 motor as well and ampdraw has the 450x new for $402.

The difference between the two heli's is night and day not even in the same ballpark once a beastx is on board. I owned both.

actually the blade fbl conversion at ampdraw is $62.79 have to add to cart to see real price

Hey, i noticed that you were using the 450 X main CF blades. I dont know if that is bad but ... i read somewhere that they were made for ONLY flybarless.

A month back I had returned a set of cf blades to HH service center because the cf was splitting. They replaced the b450 blades with the 450x blades with a service note claiming that the blades were fine to use on the b450. I thought they looked cool so I didn't question the replacement. There was no flight issues, just pilot issues.
