Default Trex Clone Photo Thread - Let's see em!

Everyone talks about the 450 and 500 clones, but I don't see many people posting pics. Post your photos so we can check them out.

This one is based on an EXI 450 "base model" heli I got on sale for $55.

Thanks guys.

Haha I'm being stalked for my motor. They are only $55 at the shop JM.

Anybody got any Flashers, CopterXs or HK450s to post? No whistling bungholes, no spleen spliters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, hoosker doos, hoosker donts, cherry bombs, nipsy daisers, with or without the scooter stick, or one single whistling kitty chaser?

Hi :=}
I just ordered 2 of the EXI-450's on sale at Xheli.com until today sometime for $ 59.95 each but mine is the plastic head & tail model, but I think it really looks like a nice heli, plus they claim to carry the parts for them and if they are out they said they have them back in a few days.
I just hope that they do keep a supply of parts like they claim, sure would be nice not have to wait forever to get parts like some brands.

Joe, That is what I have. Two of them actually. You can get the metal tail from Deal Extreme for $21. I bought the metal blade grips because I broke the plastic set in a wreck.

This heli is completely compatible with Trex SE V2 parts, that's the best thing about it. You can get parts at shops, ebay whatever. Xheli does keep a lot in stock and their parts are cheaper.

I'm using the Copter X V2 head and tail assembly on mine. It's the same as the Trex head and tail except it's only 50 dollars on Ebay.
It has the 4mm feathering shaft. And comes with rhe belt too.

PS. Seller was 'besthobbysite'
