Align T-REX 600N 700N > Question

How come they charge less for the trex 600n sport because it has silver frames, but they charge the same price for the two 600e's one having black cf frames and one having silver?

Because IIRC the silver frames on the E are still Carbon, whereas on the N sport they are G10 - NOT carbon. Plus you are paying less due to no TT and no nice FG pre-painted canopy on the N Sport.

Well then you've got me but the Sport does offer less than the N Pro, there is no doubt about that...all the same, since I am thinking of getting 2 of the buggers, I might just save myself the $400 and get the basic version...

The silver frames do look good for sure.. When I break my CF frames I will probably be replacing them with the silver G10 ones. One due to price and two I think they look cooler than the black ones.

I think that the other difference is that the Pro has a metal washout base , and the sport has a plastic one - but I'm not certain about it . I am also undecided on which version that I will get because , although I like the nice fiberglass canopy and carbon frames , I prefer belt drive because of its durability .

At the end of the day , it gets dark .

Nope, the sport has the metal base as well. The only differences are in the frame material/color, canopy, and torque tube versus belt. Those are it. I went with the sport because I like belt drives, wanted a blank canopy for my callies graphics decals, and like G10 - not to mention you save nearly $200 going that route while losing nothing substancial. In fact the plastic canopy with the sport version is very well done. (too bad I wrinkled the crud out of my callies decals this time around - dont place decals at 2 in the morning when you are tired

)

The G10 frames feel just as strong once built up as the carbon ones do.

Also, doesn't the sport come with a plastic tail case vs the metal one with the pro?

Do you have any pics of the Callie Graphics on your 600n? Are they the same as your 600e?

Yes it does, my bad. But that metal case on the Pro is part of the Align TT upgrade package they sell for the electrics, so I forgot about it as a "seperate" item. Thanks for reminding me.
