flyingquisinart Senior Heliman Location: Detroit Area
| When the Tiger first came out, the talk was kind of like Tiger vs Evo. No one really compared the Tiger with the Raptor because it flew so great and was designed to specifically address Raptor weaknesses. Then came the Trex 600 which devoured the world since it had such a huge retail footprint with the 450, which could arguably be considered the first and for a while the only "good" mass-production, mini-electric. This grass-roots operation just got clobbered by good marketing and big pockets at Align. We sound like cheerleaders, but it really is a great heli backed by great service and a passion for the hobby. Oh, and the manual is so good, I lent it to someone learning to fly a completely different heli so they could understand curves, adjustments, the head, etc. I wish this was the first heli I bought.
