I have both, and it doesn't look like many parts would be interchangeable - they are quite different. Maybe the motors.

from what i can see from the web site is it has separate electronic componets 'good' a six channel radio is good but it appears to be a fixed pitch heli and only needs a four channel radio? flexable landing skids 'good' flexable tail rotor 'good' flexable main rotor not so good for fast forward flight as it seems it would cone a lot 'imho' i would stay with the blade and its collective pitch it will do more as you learn to fly better again in my opinion please correct me if i am wrong.

I have the blade but I can't find any flexible main blades like what are on the Tornado. I keep tearing up my wooden blades,do they make blades like what comes on the Tornado?

thanks for the reply guys i though the electronics looked better on the tornado but wasn't sure about the flexable blades i brought it up with my LHS one of the bigger ones in my area and he didn't seem to think much of it either i'm gonna just upgrade the blade i got and go with it till im good enough to get a big bird.

thanks again

Phil
