Canopies Canopies Canopies

Probably been asked a hundred times, but oh well.
Will the 700e DFC canopy fit on the 700e Pro DFC? It looks like the nose is a little different shape, but I don't know if the holes will line up.
Thank you

I can see by the overwhelming response, that this was a stupid question. Thanks to all that participated and I'm sure either one will be fine.

Yes either Canopy will fit.

i originally bought the pro version and later bought the DFC canopy "not sure why" but i did and yes it fits but personally the pro style looks better, has better colors and is easier to see in the air.

also from where its a larger canopy its not near as snug fitting when putting it on.

Ok, that's good. I had Canomod paint a Goblin canopy and I just found a Canomod canopy for a Trex 700e DFC that is almost the same color scheme so I got one.
Thanks guys, I thought it would, but hearing it made me feel better about the new canopy.

And this is the Goblin canopy I had painted.

I will add that the "DFC Pro" canopy will fit on the "DFC" perfectly (we tried it out at the club).

The 700N DFC is not compatible with the electric in terms of canopies though, the nitro version has a different shape, more cutouts and the mounting holes are on differnet places.

I'm intrigued by the new "speed" fuselages... kinda gives me a reason to crash my 700. If I kill the boom and canopy, I'll probably go for a speed fuse just to be silly.

Yeah I got the canopy that's in the picture above the other day and it fits good. The colors are a little different and I like the wrap around canopy style, so my OC just won't let it be, I'm having Canomod paint a Trex 700 canopy with the same design as the Goblin they also painted for me. I need help

NEXT QUESTION, Why aren't there more 700 DFC PRO canopy choices out there? It's a very poplar heli in the hobby right now but yet, no other canopy choices in the shops or even with the poplar canopy painters like canomod or fusuno . Fusuno has 1 or two but nothing wowing & the same for Canomod, nothing to write home about.

Sick Canopy has quite a few choices.

Their prices are quite sick as well.
