New 450x out of the box

[Mike00top]

If any one is thinking of buying one (450x) but is concerned about all the faffing with setups, dont worry as this is great straight out the box, so far i haven't had to adjust one click ! just drop all the settings in my TX and bingo ! mine flies great on the floor and as slow as you like up into the hover, no worries about tipping over or anything else, i always fly all my heli's up into the hover, i hate the idea on some of popping it up to 2 ft, when i take off i like to be able to lift it gently up on to the right skid, and lift vertical to 1ft slowly, after that i throw it around.

so would i buy another ? , after flying Trex 450's , blade 400's, rave 450, shogun 400, thunder tiger etc, the answer is a certain YES dunno what its gonna be like after 12 months of hammering, but right now i am impressed, even though its got a lot of plastic onboard, and i aint a plastic lover

The Blade 450 X are brilliant little models I loved mine. Keep an eye on the swash plate though. if it feels like its getting even slightly sticky change it or it will fall out of the sky all on its own like mine did when it seized up. I've just finished repairing it with a new swash plate etc but yet to test fly it before selling it on.

Its a great heli, its very light, behaves nicely, i just hope it hangs together long enough, i did think at one stage i was going to pull the main shaft through the frames, i also thought i managed to get the tail belt to jump a couple of teeth, by doing some nasty pitch pumps in fast side ways flight ?

loven it so far ! !

I'm looking forward to seeing you fly it

On the flip side if it falls apart you'll only be a dfc head short of a flybarless 550
