Default Wish list is happening!
I was at Assurance RC today and Andy showed me the new metal tail case for belt drive! READY FOR THIS! It is lighter than the plastic case and I gotta say looks GOOD too....

He said should be here in a week.

Also Metal seesaw mixer arms are out too and have been shipped to shops... I didn't get a set because he was out as he had shipped them all out already

Anyway the wish list is happening and I also told him about it so Align is WATCHING us

Awesome! Bring on the bling! I'm only truly happy when surrounded by CF and piles of shiny aluminum. Any word on what might be next?

I don't think they will... Align did this on the 450 and it PO'ed resellers to have to carry 3X the parts (blue, purple, and grey) I am pretty sure they stopped making the other colors and now make blue only..... Bottom line I bet they will not make blue for this heli.
Trex 450 V2 is blue
Trex600 is greenish
Trex500 is black

And I bet you a dollar they will stick to this.

Does this mean future kits will have them included or it will be extra? I'm assuming they will be extra and the kits will be the same as of now.

Oh please NO more blue!! Truth be told, I'm pretty sick of blue from all of the 450 helis that I've had and seen and owned. I think black with the polished aluminum accent on the 500 is very nice. Another nice color would be silver like the Dragonus, but I'd take black over blue any day. Just my thought.

Also, any word on a CF boom (stock length or extended)?

Bob, would you try and find out if they will make a SE version of the 500 fully upgraded out of the box?

Thanks,
-Chris

I don't see these listed on either of Aligns sites? Part #? I suppose these will just show up on ReadyHeli.com and the lucky ones that see them first will get them
