an old dog doesn't stray far from home.... so I'll still be reading the Wheeeee thread as well.

wnuk,

The trex was planned. I spent the last few weeks researching the different models. I decided with the S series because of the CCPM and direct to swash. Originally, I was looking at the SA like barrick got... but then was looking at the the CF S... and finally decided the SE was the best deal (plus my LHS gave me a great discount).

My first thought was to get the 450 SA and put the S75 servos, G90, and AR6100 (from my CP Pro). learn how to fly it and then move to the SE... but decided to go all the way and start with the SE, fully loaded with Hitech 65HB's, and a solid tail with Futaba S9650, and GY401.

why put go kart mechanics on a ferrari?

I'm still thinking about the 450 SA with CP Pro electronics for "training"
