What would be your top 5 improvements for a 120. My current setup:

Stock crutch
Astro020
45A Eflite ESC
Sport Gyro
I think everything else is stock.

Steve,

Below is what I started out with. The first four items, especially the first and second, are a must in my opinion.

5mm Ti shaft
Aluminum main rotor hub
Tail belt drive
Main belt drive
Reinforced featherplate
Elevated tail
Crooked crutch

As far as electronics, I started out with a Meg 16/15/3, 401 gyro, CC45 esc and HS-81s. I'm not familiar with the 45A Eflite ESC and Sport Gyro, but if you are happy with them that's OK. If you go for a Titanium shaft go for the new 7mm size.

I also recommend the aluminum subrotor. The plastic one is too fragile, plus if the rotors make contact with anything the Z links fly out. The aluminum subrotor doesn't twist or warp. I got the last one that Chopper-1.org had,...I don't think Brewt is going to make them anymore. Hopfully BT still does. I plan on upgrading to the Titanium tail boom and belt drive. I just recently got a TREX SE but I still love my corona !! It's teaching me to fly !!!
