Well this is my second HDX450SE V2.
The first one I was pretty happy with, but decided to trade it for a larger heli.
Now I have larger heli's and wanted a small one as well lol.
Specs of the gear I have in mine before I continue...
Scorpion 2221-8 motor, 12 tooth
Scorpion Commander 45 esc
3x HS56
Logictech 2100 gyro and servo combo
Radix mains
KnB dream tail blades
Mini Titan green paddles
Align 220mm flybar
Gorilla Gear landing skid struts
Kong Power and Outrage 2200 25c lipo

Headspeed at zero pitch idle 2 is 3000 flat.
There is very minimal loadup in a hover, and hardly any bog at all in a full power climb.
In FFF the heli tracks like its on rails, flying in wind far better than it has a right to.
The tail has great authority, and is very quick yet predictable.
Ive done some medium fast backwards circuits with it, and again its very preictable.
All this from a bargain priced heli. Solid flight characteristics, responsive and efficient.
Im loving flyin this thing, its even better than my first one.
With 12 deg pitch both ways, she pops up and down pretty impressivly lol.
Can you tell Im really happy with my purchase? Can you tell what I will say if you ask if I would recommend it to you?
Yep, you got it, sweeeeet

If you bling it, they will come :D

What radio? I'm thinking of getting the Scorpion motor and ESC except I read on a post of trouble getting it to initialize & calibrate right with the Spektrum system. My HDX 450 is stock but I'm really liking it because I can never get time for the flying field with my 50 but now I can fly it in the park behind my house any time. I can get a flight in while steaks are grilling!

must have been a downdraft

Had a great day flying today.........until I crashed lol.
Was doing flips, rolls, a few funnels, attemted tic tocs lol, but the tail wasnt happy, inverted hovers and climbouts.
Got a bit too low and cocky in a backward hurricane.
Went in tail first, long grass so minimal damage.
Main shaft, spindle and one set of servo gears, thats it.
All in all, even though i crashed, Im still real happy with how the heli performed.

If you bling it, they will come :D
