            its the Kools Kit

            im not all that impressed with the quality to be honest, especially the retracts, i have had to copleatly re build them from scratch.

                That looks really good, Im contemplating doing this to my 450 now ive got the 500 to play with.

                I was looking at this kit, anyone used one/seen one or anything, looks like it uses the same retrac system which sounds like it could be a pain.

                  I have been looking around for a good one for a while and I think the Fusuno one seems to come out best.It does come in a few variations
                  1/Pr-painted no servo
                  2/ " " with servo
                  3/ " " RVS (rivits on fuselage) no servo
                  4/ " " " " " with servo
                  All at varing costs and mainly on Ebay.Some of the offers allow you to download the .PDF file instructions so you can see exactly what you have to do.It does say you will need a 7 channel receiver minimum to use the retracts.Hope this helps Sesame.

                    TBH im not too keen on the fuz with the rivits, 7 chan is the min and most seem to have the same crappy retract system, i found mine colapsed under the wight of the T-Rex and the yaw of the rotors starting up. The wire legs just arnt strong enough, even if you did get it to hold the wight of the chopper they would not last long, one heavey landing and they would be knackerd.

                    The Kools fuz is cheap and you get what you pay for, but it looks ok in the air and with the stronger retracts it sould last for a while.

                        from what ive seen the retracts on these could realy do with a comlpete remake, maybe I need to take a closer look at one and see if something different can be manufactured.
