Trex 250 is here!

Well I got my Trex 250 last night!  I had to open up the box and look at the parts. 

It came with 2 sets of blades, which I didn't realize. A carbon fiber and plastic set. I'll probably end up using the plastic set, as this heli is my training platform  it's also smaller than I thought.  I was thinking it was similar in size to my Blade CP Pro, since it uses the same battery, a 3s 850mah, but after looking at the canopy and blades, it seems to be a little bigger than my 130x. Maybe it's closer in size to a 180cfx?  The 15A esc it comes with is tiny!  I was planning to use the Castle Phoenix 25 from the CP Pro, to take advantage of the governor. But if it's too big, I may need to get a Talon 15. Luckily it's only $30. 

Next up, the build!
