450 Tail boom

There is no real need to do this. If you have a good gyro, and a good tail servo, the tail hold fantastic.

To answer your question though, I have never seen a stretch kit for a 450.
 
This should be in the beginners help section or the 450 section.

I've moved this thread to the 450 sized heli section.

Yes...you can add a longer tail boom to a 450 sized helicopter.

Will it fly any better with the longer boom than a shorter, stock, boom.....I can't imagine that it would fly any better or worse, as long as the setup has been done correctly. Just as Tony said, if you have a good gyro and a good tail servo, the helicopter should fly exceptionally.

If you are interested in "stretching" a 450 sized helicopter, the only ones that I know of that sells parts to "stretch" a 450 is here:

480 Stretch Parts

Now, this is the only place that I've looked for and found the stretched parts. There are probably others.

Good luck buddy!
 
There are loads of people that have upgraded to 480.

If your going to do the tail, then you would be better to do the whole heli.
360mm blades, change the motor and ESC to 6S then you'll have the full 480 heli :)
 
One thing you may notice is the heli May feel mire floaty in the air. If the weight of the heli does not increase much and you put longer blades one then you will have more lift at a given head speed.

So depending on what feel you want you may want the stretch kit.

I would think you could, less rpm less lift. When setting up the heli with 380 mm blades you should be able to drop a pinion size to help reduce the head speed plus increase the torque to help with the added mass.
