The Align T-Rex 450SE (also referenced later as the Align T-Rex 450SE V1) is currently one of Align's smallest helicopters. This helicopter is the model above the T-Rex 450SA and below the T-Rex 450SE V2. The helicopter usually retails for $380. This specific model is no longer produced as Align has created the brother, the 450SE V2. Considering the price of the model, most people look for these as they are 200 dollars cheaper than the aforementioned second version. This helicopter comes with an Align 430L brushless outrunner motor and an RCE-BL35G ESC which is a programmable brushless speed controller. The main difference between a T-Rex 450SE V2 and a T-Rex 450SE V1 are the electronic speed control, motor and the feathering shaft.
