                      I got my Mini Titan 325se when first come out & was by far better than any other 450 in it's class & now" with competition of other 450' it's still as good as any.
                      In the time I've had mine I've ugraded to: torque tube, Align links, Align main gear, Align pro tail blade grip assy, Align main blades, Beastx & now playing with couple of fbl heads to see which is best suited one of them Align!

                            My Vbar logo 400 in for sale and now on ebay might work well for you. Its very stable in the wind being FBL, i dont think a 450 trex would give you anywhere near as stable a flight as a raptor 30!!

                            Its RTF just bind it up. Lipos are quite cheap from hobbyking, and theres loads of crash repairs included!!!

                            Flybarless will give you a lot of confidence, but its a 500 size machine, and carries higher crash repair costs than a 450.
