I almost looked at one of those a couple years ago. Never got to really look into one though.

This kit arf is $450 new. Not a bad price but the frames are plastic on that kit.

The one kit I saw was the E325 on tower hobbies. Is this the 325 or the 360? I saw they have both for fbl.

I had one of those and the weakest part was the front tail drive gear kept snapping where the pin went through it but yours looks to be the upgraded metal one so you should be ok

I have been looking at the cobra body for it. Think it be cool little scale modle
And yes it has all the metal upgrades on the tail drive .
I was looking it over lastnight and with these servos the swash links are at bad angles so going to straigen that up got new servo arms on the way and spacers made to get them in a better linewith the main shaft .
I cant gripe tomutch about it. I had 75 bucks in the parts that i traded for it
