Yep, lightly scuffed them up with fine sand paper, then couple light coats of Krylon Fushion spray paint for plastics. It came out so well it looks like it came that way from the factory.

Just wondering if someone could post a pic with the 6s battery in. I have zippy 1300 they fit between the frame but don't actually go all the way inside.

Compared a little today. Many folks here have bought 450, again, like me, cool! So... today we were these ones. The Forza is a nice machine. The frame is almost same size! But the canopy is smaller, and the landing gear looks really funny. Otherwise not too big differences size-vise. The difference in sound is remarkable though, the Forza is quiet and the X3 sounds like a bigger heli

Killer pics Danny!

I will have some up of the 450Pro Gaui and Mini P this next week, my Mini Protos is in the Local PO to be delivered tomorrow

Wish I had the money to build the Forza side by side with the Protos... but thats not the case...

You can also insert an image from the link to any attachment you have uploaded, so you don't have to post the images remotely.

I like that canopy. I'm going to have to get one of those.
