It's not Align, but it is Align compatible. So, if the price was right, I don't think you can go wrong Phil.

The best I can tell: CopterX = Exi = several other brands out there. You got the carbon fiber edition? AWESOME!!! Unless not a CopterX, your heli will be exactly like my Exi 450 CF! That says, 100% CNC aluminum and carbon fiber where that isn't. If you look at the build thread for my Exi T450 CF, that 'should' be your heli! It will be awesome! Kent |

Well the Copterx showed up today in the mail and i must say I think that it will be a very indestructible heli cause it didn't come in a box it came all the way here in a bubble wrap( BAG )what a surprise so spent the afternoon with my bottle of loctite and a allen wrench redoing all the screws and putting what i have together till i get more part's I'm done look's pretty cool as it sit's will see about posting some smaller pic's when i figure it out

No box? That's hilarious, Phil. The seller must be on an economy kick. ;D
