Bottom line, imo, is that EXI did a pretty nice job in cloning the V2... Its a fantastic deal for anyone wanting to get a 450 sized heli without having to sell the house and several generations of children to buy one... Plus if a person wants they can buy the overpriced Align gear to put into them... But as they are they fly smooth... Only real problem is the tail unti which you should have a backup for when it does fail... And I bought one for $20.00 that is aluminum, comes with alum blade grips and a belt... drops right in and ur fly'n in ten minutes...

I might even buy the CF version this coming sale on Boxing Day...

happy holidaze... and fly'n too of course
