I just bought a MX400. I couldnt be more pleased with it. I have flown it more than my Raptor 50v. Im wondering what would be some good upgrade parts to start getting to improve its performance?

The most important upgrades are safety related.
Upgrade the center mast to the aluminum version with or without bearings, either is much less likely to fail in flight or otherwise.
Then get the aluminum tail rotor pitch plate set (ARK-240, includes everything right of the housing tail housing except blades & 90 deg. bellcrank) or equivalent and change out the white plastic tail rotor blades, too many people have had these items disintegrate in flight or on minor impact.
