    Well i myself am becoming more drawn to it each time i look at it. I'd go as far to say if i could afford it i would make sure i was one of the first to get this strange & unique 450.

    I no nothing about whether the model needs to be light or not to get the fastest speed but if light weight is required I wonder why they chose the heaviest cyclic servos available?

    The main gear design also looks very interesting... I wonder if the FBL controller will be affected by being directly above the motor side on.

    I can't tell if the head is a matte metal or plastic?

    Surely, it's not how it looks that matters, it's how it performs???

    This looks like a very fresh, interesting semi-monocoque design to me and should be applauded. The landing gear looks very survivable to me in a ploughing match, being triangulated. But hey, if you think that all helies should look like a Trex, then it may not be for ewe. Baaa

    Standard size micro servos, although the heli looks light speed also come from being streamlined.

    DEFINATLY AGREE ^^!!! If all helis were bog standard pod and boom surly it would be very boring, looks like SAB noticed this with the new Goblin in being unique

    IT looks really nice. I'll certainly be watching out for it.

    Is that an align tail boom in the picture? Whens it coming out?
