Default what gyro to buy??? T rex

i am almost done with my new trex!!!! i have the servos in and have my new JR radio waiting to go!!!
i have yet to buy a gyro...
if you had to, and money wasnt the big issue. what gyro would you buy??? futaba, or JR.
what do you think of the g410t, or the g490t?? or the gy240??? i would like to try to keep it about 200.00 or less.
come on guys, lets hear what you all think!!!

I am thinking about getting the T-Rex to play with when I don't have time for my R50 V2. Anyay I am planning to get the Align HH gyro from heliproz.com or the Futaba GY401. Why get the 240 when the 401 is just a bit more and a lot better.

Get the gy401 over the gy240.
Behaves just as well for a beginner, and allows faster pirouette rate when you advance in skill.

I just ordered an Align HH for 79.95 from Heliproz with my Trex. I put a Futaba 401 in my Shogun, Ergo, and am putting the 401 in my Rapter 50. The 401 is easy but from what I have read the Align works just like the 401 without the pots adjustments on the gyro.

I was told by the guys at Heliproz that the Futaba 401 does more for less, a lot less money, and I am using JR radio's. I just bought a 9303 PCM that was a package with a 401. They said when I got my Ergo in 2001 and bought a 401 for under 150.00 with my 8103 JR that the same performance with a JR gyro would be 500 bucks. Sorry for my ignorance George, I don't know it all, that's why I come here to learn.
