I just took a kit (without electrics, canopy and blades)  from rcsmart.com.my last week! Should I be worrying  ???

yeah ... getting a kit (450 and above) through is very difficult.
But since your package doesn't contain canopy, blades and electronics, who knows, you might be the lucky one!
All the best

Thanks Raja... I was worried about the above post about 550s catching fire by Sujju. Sorry If I was not clear in my previous post. I have the kit with me and Customs (that too Saudi) was not an issue since its a kit :)

Haha Ok - anyway, those posts are quite old and dont think are relavant anymore. 550s are very popular

Thank Raja! I have a 450 clone and not happy with the way it flies or not flies! Thought the 550e would be a better platform to practice ;) I haven't decided on the electics yet and most certainly come to you people for alternative options :p

550 would be good if you have some deep pockets ....otherwise stay with 450

i think 500 flies way better than 450 and practicing on it would be fine..

Best500,: protos 500, goblin, logo, atom 500, x4ii gaui f/b trex

Trex makes d best value for money kits hence the popularity.

Thanks dear all! Really appreciate the support  :salute: .

I have already taken the kit couple of weeks back as mentioned in the first post (couldnt resist this offer as I paid nothing for shipping :)  : http://www.rcsmart.com.my/webshaper/store/viewProd.asp?pkProductItem=5015 ) . I will still be trying to learn a bit from the 450 while slowly building the 550. But the HK 450GTpro has to be upgraded first as am not at all happy with how it turned out. A lot of slope and never reliable :( Will soon upgrade the head atleast.
