| Yea, the Protos looks kewl. Overall parts pricing is a little higher than the Rex 500(except for the Rex's carbon frames $60 vs Protos plastic frames $30) The carbon frames on the Rex 500 are pretty stout though. Flying wise, they both have a ton o' power on 6S.
I do however like that the protos is able to use plastic blade grips, I wonder if they could mate onto a Rex hub, or maybe just swap out the head. Don't like that the grips on the Rex are $45 a pop for the set and you can't buy them individually. Also, I feel that plastic grips can give a heli more pop with a little bit of flex, kinda like cracking a whip.
