Default Jermo's Trex Case Review

Jermo did a Trex450 case review comparing the Align case with the Flight Leader case.

Here is the review video:

Hmm. Interesting review. I'd like to know what was making the beeping sound and what kind of bird he has!

Jermo, My buddy has a Mini-titan and it wouldn't fit in the Align case, will it fit in the Flight Leader case?

Thanks,

Jeremy

no idea, I'm going to Columbia SC this weekened, If anyone has a Mini-Titan I'll as them to check it. In what way did it not fit? if it was length the flight leader case is longer than the Align case. I'll need to measure to find out by how much.

Thanks Jermo, sometimes you really do have to think outside the box in order to get everything in the box. It never occurd to me to turn my dx7 sideways.

Jermo if you could find a case like that for a 600 size heli you would have a hit on your hands.

I found this case on Amazon. It's only $45 but i'm not sure if it will work. If the dimensions are right i might be able to get my trex450 in it.

I have my Mini Titan in a flightleader case. Fits good, although not with the canopy on due to extra length with it on. The canopy fits in the case beside the front of the heli. Plenty of room for my DX7 and a couple of Lipos. £45 here in UK from Hobbystores
