Default Upgrade CP or get a T-Rex?

Hi Everyone,

I have been flying my blade cp for about 8 months now. I am learning how to hover nose in, and am getting very good at forward flight. My stock batteries are only giving me about 5-6 minutes of flying time and i would like to upgrade to lipos.

I figure it will cost me about $200 to get the upgrade kit, 2 lipos, and a cell balancer to attach to my charger.

Do you think it may make more sense to sink some cash into a new t-rex instead of spening a lot on upgrading the CP?

If I get a T-rex, I do not want to spend over $1,000. I am not sure of the differences between the 450SA and the 450SE other then the carbon fiber parts and aluminum head. Will one fly better and outlast the other? Do they fly differently? Is it worth the extra $200 to get the SE over the SA?
