got the hk450 from hobbycity today. only took 6 days, not too bad from hong kong. got everything put together except for motor,esc,receiver, and tail servo. hope the tail servo comes tomorrow. gotta say that it seems pretty well built and looks identical to the exi and trex. had to stop tho', my big ol mitts were cramping up with them @%$#@ little screws! took some pics and i'll be posting them soon

Well, it is supposed to be a Trex clone. Anyone I've read that's bought one have been quite impressed with it. Looking forward to the pics.

I'm thinking it got EMS'd ranben, or else Fireheli knows someone we don't and should share his source ;D. When you order from China sometimes your package gets held up in customs. Most of the time it doesn't, but my last package from China I could tell got the once over.

Fireheli, how did you have it shipped and how much did it cost? I've been looking at that one for a week or so. Might be something I want to build in the future.

sorry guys, been a little busy lately taking some rescue classes. i'll be taking some pics as soon as i get some time. shipping was about 20 bucks or so and it came in about 7 - 10 days. so far everything is fitting together nicely and it seems well built. for the price you can't beat it. looked at finless bobs videos of the trex and it looks pretty identical. i'll be done with classes this week so will continue the build and keep you guys posted.
