hey diesel if you need any help on that heli gimme a holler i can answer pretty much any questions you have the head is probably the biggest part and getting a good mechanical setup will keep you from pulling hair out. finless makes great vids and they are pretty straight forward. as far as going fbl thats a whole other can of worms , what to adjust and when to adjust. im still learning on a few of mine , my trex 600 has the mikado 5.0 blue box, and i was going to install a skookum 360 on my blade 400 but theres really no room so im thinking it will go on the trex 500. as far as tt or belt , theres way to much controversy on that as both my trex's have tt and my gazaur's ,blade 400's have belt. i can tell you belt is cheaper in a crash but tt is definately quicker to replace as well as easier. some also say that tt has less stress on the drive , however finding a straight one is proving difficult for most lol. i will offer you this advice and you can use it if you want but i would buy the align bolt kit for that exi i personally still have a 250 and had a 450 , gave it to my brother but the bolts r junk! also when it comes to main shafts,feather shafts , bearings , and tail shafts align is the only way to go.

i hate to say it hor but if its the one for 1200 thats way to pricey as people sell trex 600 and 700's fbl's for that price heck i got a 500 a few months ago with awesome servos , castle ice 75 and spartan quark with 3 batts for 450.

Clone or Authentic?

Here's a video I made on how I converted my dx8 to a 2s lipo balance plug for power. I was really un-happy with the amount of charge time I took for my stock battery to charge and how even if charged for 12+ hours had lousy battery life. I then looked at buying the upgrade lipo from Spektrum until I seen the price. I'm sure this has been done several times, this is just how I did it and thought I would share.

real align helis i dont want to start a *!***!***!***!**e storm here but the problem i have which most would is you can get brand new in box align kits 500 series for 450 to 550 depending on where you buy. his heli is nothing special its all align electronics and everyone knows their servo arent the best in the world the motors just barely get the job done.as a matter of fact the 500's are known as lipo killers so if you run the stock setup plan on seeing you lipos puff. heck you can buy a brand new 500 pro v2 fbl for 789 bucks shipped. th fact that its put together already really means nothing as anyone that is smart if they bought it would rip it apart and make sure its loc tighted and assembled correctly. all im trying to say is i dont see where 1200 dollars comes into play. i dont think the radio is 400 dollars. as a matter of fact i bought my 600 from a guy on rcu i paid 1150 for it and when he said he had well over 3200 invested he didnt lie everything on it was top of the line. this is why when i seen his ad i said good luck.
