cos that set is for the 250 Heli, and it's just a extra to the stuff you get in the kit

Outside of the .9 the common hex keys for the 450 and 250 are close. 1.5mm, 2mm and in some rare cases 2.5mm. I do most of my builds with 1.5mm and 2mm. That's why I bought those to sizes from scorpion. For those other sizes I have the exi 12 piece kit which has a 3mm, side cutters, ball link wrench and remover finally a pair of needle nose. The ball link pliers are a waist it that kit. Bthey bend really easy and tear up the ball links if your not extremely carefull.

Same here Dan! My wife thinks that this is a fairly cheap hobby. :lol: She was going to buy me a new 5500mah pack for my 550 as a birthday present, and freaked out when she saw how much they cost...lol.

Very cool, Lee! It looks like a "good time" is going to be had soon, lol.

I got my package, too. I order some parts and a 4S 1400mah 65C battery, some wire, antenna extensions, and some nylon hardware. Very cool!
