Do you know what exactly does this item upgrade? Its e-sky part number is ek1-0599, image is for example here http://www.rc711.com/shop/imagemagic.php?img=nNjHms7Zl6%2B%2BlZxjaWyklJ3ZzQ% 3D%

And second question what is this upgrading? It's called very "descriptively" plastic upgrade set, part number Ek1-0597

i did some research I have found this picture:

It looks like it has something to do with parts showed in previous post, only I can't imagine how to upgrade current frame and what benefit do you achieve by this upgrade - stability, durability, weight?

I would say these are parts for the king2 carbon fiber frame. You are right, there is no way to use them on the stock frame.

I don't think these are for carbon fibre edition. They say they are plastic upgrades and I don't see reason why put plastic parts on carbon fibre frame. Moreover carbonfibre edition looks like this:

That long plate is the bottom chassis part, not for the stock K2. The other plastic part looks like the bearing blocks, anti-rotation bracket...

I've seen that picture as well when I was looking at upgrade options for the HBK2, but the only place that I saw that was the CF parts already on the HBK2 that was for sale. I've done research and can't find the CF main chasis upgrades for this bird. There are plenty of CF blades, Paddles, and tail boom, but nothing on CF main Chasis...well individually.

Well, these parts are for a parallel plate frame, since the stock king does not have that, it is either for an aftermarket frame, or for another heli entirely and are just mislabled.
