Default Decisions on Blade and Align

Income Tax Return was better than I thought so decided to treat myself to a new helicopter. Im trying to figure out which one to go with and maybe get some input/opinions. I plan on pairing a helicopter up with a DX7s. So far I have found

TREX 450 Pro V2 Super Combo ($388) since Ive been hearing the Pro kit is alot better than the sport kit, still could use some opinions on that:

BLADE 450 3D BNF,($195) saw this online and thought this could be a killer deal:

Definately if someone has any other models to look into, im all ears. Appreciated much.

I thinking of also TREX 500E Super Combo for $450. I was looking at the TREX Clones but from personal references alot of people telling me they are not as good.

Id get a 500 over a 450.

Not that the 450 is a bad heli, its a great heli in fact.  Its just I think the 500 is more fun to fly (for me) because its bigger and easier to see.  Plus, it isnt as "twitchy".

Out of all of the helis I own, I fly my 500 the most...well the 500 and my mcpx. lol

I dont think that it is. But if it concerns you too much...go for the 500e PRO version that comes with all of the metal "bling-bling" parts for not that much more money.

Either way you go...you will be happy with it.
