Now that the heli's been out for a few years, does anyone know of a scale (or at least "full") body kit for the E-flite Blade 400 helicopter?

I'm not so much concerned with what type of scale body, just so long as it's a full body kit to help improve visibility. That little pod/boom goes away quickly!

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Here's one, they have others. Just go browsing.

Unless I'm reading it wrong, that's specifically for a T-Rex 450 (and clones), and the Blade's a 400, at least by name. I'm sure it could be MADE to fit, but I want something that's KNOWN to fit. Or is the Blade 400 a clone of the T-Rex 450, and is THAT why it would fit? Seriously, I don't know!

Let me ask this another way: are there any other Blade 400 owners out there who REALLY LIKE a scale fuselage kit that they have installed? If so, which one?

Tony,

It is deceiving with nomenclature, a Trex 450 and a Blade 400. Sounds like there should be a big difference. But really, they are almost identical in size.

Blade 400:

Blade diameter 28.2 inches
Tail Rotor 5.2 inches
Height 9.0 inches
Length 25.6 inches

Trex 450 Pro:

Blade Diameter 28.1 inches
Tail Rotor 6.2 inches
Height 8.97 inches
Length 25.31 inches

So a scale body for a TRex 450 would fit a Blade 400 then? The HKones look great and Darth's has a few nice ones too, but Ialso would like to know that it would for sure fit before ordering one. Has anyone here installed a TRex 450 scale body ona Blade 400?
