  • Getting daft now

    Before we start, id like to say I dont give a hoot about what Align and Gaui get up to, and have no desire to buy any of their helis.

    HOWEVER

    Align have released a cad drawing of their new 450L, which is not unlike the Gaui X3

    Its just a bit daft!!! They say immitation is the greatest form of flattery??

        Yeah, sure, they look similar....

        But they are always going to, if you are talking about pod and boom, with a dfc style head.

          Gaui have got the head right, Align have not.

          Either way I bet they both fly very damn similar. I would not have either, too small for me

              Thats the thing, everyone bashers of the HK stuff but fair enough they are 99% of the time exact copies but copying is copying. I would love for everyone to do different things as it would benefit us in the end

              But also, just how different can these be I ask? Actually quite different when you look at so many new heli's coming out. I think most of the far eastern ones will always be very similar, its only the western world heli's that are different to one another (Europe and USA)

                    align are just well known clones anyway, they always have been, never have they made anything of innovation there selves just copy other designs, re-name them and sell them.
                    Expect nothing less its what they always do.

                            Align have always stolen designs/ideas from others. It's why I don't care that people make clones of Align helis.

                              you have obviously had them in in the past and not liked/ got on with them.
