As i understand it the 3 different ones (not including engine combos) are G10 with plastic , Carbon with plastic and lastly the SE carbon and metal, i myself chose the G10 with Toxic 231 RS.There are also rumors of a torque tube to be released at some point.

the carbon version has some metal head parts aswell and the g10 and carbon come with white canopies with a painted on black windsheild where as the se has a fancy paintjob on it's canopy.

They really should clear that up in their descriptions. I struggled with it also until I finally ordered the basic G10 version because I'm not a very good pilot yet so the shiny stuff doesn't really buy me that much at this time.

yup, im getting mixed up in how they described everything in that site. the question now is. if i get the g10, will it be easy to upgrade the head and are the parts compatible?

I'm no expert but I believe the G10 one can be upgraded to the SE if one wants. It is usually much cheaper to get the SE from the beginning if you want the bling and intend to upgrade. I plan to fly mine until stuff wears out (or breaks) then I'll decide if my skills justify putting the shiny metal parts and carbon frames on. I just an ambitious beginner who got a nice tax refund this year so I bought a gasser

yup, thats what is gonna happen if i get the g10 kit will wait for it til it breaks down before replacing it,

just making sure first if the parts are basically the same and the difference is that its metal, aluminum or plastic
