I think we are lucky in Canada, as we do not seem to have any issues getting parts from a number of hobby shops that we deal with here for our Century helis.
Yet I have had a number of issues getting parts for some of my other brands of helis. |

The GL450SE Distributed by Century UK
Quote:
Sorry, could not let this one go! Found it by accident, while looking for another site. I am a former commercial helicopter pilot and current fixed wing PPL, Pegasus Flash microlight, Socatta Rallye 150ST, Piper Twin Commanchie. I am crap (to put it mildly) with R/C helis, but I have a love affair with anything that flies. I have to say that I am not that good with the model flying world, but was recently introduced to the electric heli. Yes, I did have the Hirobo Shuttle, years ago, which was great to play with in the garden and I have a large one, (garden that is). Just to say that my experiance with the GL450SE, (whoever makes it) has been great, their technical info "on the phone", is second to none and the supply of parts that I ordered with it were faultless. I don't like "down time" and got the parts as a precaution! I live in Devon and all model shops that I know of have a high regard for Century UK. One, a friend of formed the famous Chivenor "22 rescue squadren", if it's good enough for him it's good enough for me. Probably not all joined up writing, but I hope the message got through! |

I came across this whilst google searching the gl450se and thought i would help out the UK peeps by saying that the Century GL450SE helicopter, is actually the CopterX 450SE V2 distributed under special license between copterx and centuryuk in the UK only
see www.copterx.com , they are the manufacturer of the century GL450SE, and most parts are actually a higher quality than the Align T-rex 450SE V2 !! If you are looking for spares, the best and cheapest place is http://www.ehirobo.com/shop/index.php but 98% of the parts are directly interchangeable with the Align T-rex, and spares are readily available for this heli pretty much everywhere in the world Hope this info helps the UK people out, and satisfys the curiosity of the americans here |

I think that you are mistaken. CopterX does not manufacture the GL 450. GL is it's own entity that makes copies of copied T-Rex's to put it mildly. I have searched for both types on Alibaba for distributors and have found that GL hides behind the smoke and mirrors of the underground Model/Hobby supply in China/Asia. Good luck ever finding GL's homepage, I don't believe it will ever be revealed. If CopterX really does make these on the side, it doesnt say that on the copterx web site like you wrote above....

Hey All,
May a present to your THE web site of the GL450 SE sold by CenturyUK : Hong Kong Gulang Model Technology LTD. ~ http://www.hkgulang.com/en/company.asp Essentially there are now a few clones of what is essentially a Trex 450 model, but with changes made along the way. On behalf of CenturyUK I can only appologise for delays in parts being sent out and wrong orders sent, mistakes do happen but 99% of the time they are rectified in quick time. The little GL450 SE is a great model and flies well out the box, only upgrade I have made is the addition of a Futaba S9257 Tail Servo & harder head dampers to allow me to fly aggresive 3D with mine. Other than that it's stock! . |
