@NickPech Hey you may wanna start with an MCX2 heli, this one is a bit more advanced. I'm not saying that you can't start with it but its a big learning curve...
Im going to get the bnf and use the lp5dsm that came with my cx3. But would I still be able to change through the 4 modes you talked about where you make it more stable or faster depending on your skill. If I can how would with my lp5dsm
I have just bought a msr and found my msr not stable at all in fact it just wants to shoot off all the time and will not hover like in the video ! i have adjusted the trims but this does not have any affect i have a blade sr witch had problem with the rotor motor but stills hovers better ,so much for factory testing !!!
@swur You need to calibrate the transmitter's buttons, situated below and on the sides of the controls. Keep pressing the buttons either left or right until you hear a long tone, this indicates factory settings.
"This is a awsome channel but come check out my channel at RadioControlCentral i am starting out in rc videos come give me some pointers and watch videos
I got a blade msr as my first heli, this heli is leet! after a few tries i got the hang of it, it doesn't take much. plus i'm only a teen, so don't judge me!
Thank You Horizon Hobby for making wonderful products. They all work well. Nitroplanes however (30%) work properly. Parkzone and Eflite (100%) working. Thank you again.
Received the Blade mSR for Christmas! Had issues with the tail motor. Horizon Hobby sent me a new tail motor. That didnt fix the problem so they sent me a whole 5 in 1 unit for free. HORIZON HOBBY CUSTOMER SERVICE AND TECH SUPPORT IS THE STILL THE GREATEST!! They will fix the problem and get you back in the air ASAP!
@matrobsti You can always use packs with higher capacity and C-rating than what it comes with, although I wouldn't recommend using a pack with a lower capacity or C-Rating.
@HorizonRCdotCom Hi i had a FP heli before but it was to small to handle all the light wind we had a while back so i had to give up.Ive now got into planes but i want to get something small for indoors as its to cold to fly outside right now.Do you think someone who has flown a heli before would do good on it?
And by fly i mean i learned how to hover except for nose in thats was a pain.
@hellsrage619 Again, without seeing you fly I really don't know. However, as I mentioned, the mSR is intended to be more of a second heli as you learn and progress.
@matrobsti It's possible but without seeing you fly I couldn't tell you. Airplane experience doesn't directly correlate to helis but you will at least have the basics down. It'll be a smaller step for you than others with no flight experience, I will say that. And yes, those batteries will work.
@HorizonRCdotCom hey, ive been considering getting one of these blade msr's thats the ready to fly version. can you still use a spektrum dx6i transmitter on your ready to fly version?
@kizzle1234656 I would recommend either the mCX2 or the new Force helicopters. The Force Helis are built off the same basic platform as the mCX2 but have a feature called Simplifly that makes it easier for beginners. It's a pretty cool setup.
Hi, just a question, is there a new version of the mSR planned? something like a "Blade MSR 2"? i mean, the mSR is not bad but... i just want "something new" :-) The Blade 120sr is great but just tooo big to fly it indoors... a improved mSR that flys a bit more precise, has a bit more servo throw and power would be great!
I think the ideal heli for beginner would is E-Flite Blade mCX (co-axial brother of Blade mSR). It's 4-channel, super durable and extremely easy to fly even for first-timer
HEY GUYS..............i have flown my msr over 2300 3 minute flights! still no wear ..everything is still like new...only thing i have replaced a few times now are the li-pos!! great little heli..i have the sr and the 400 too. good job!
Which is better from what you guys have heard? the mcx2 or the msr? i know it depends but i need to know which one to buy. the most durable, best performing, etc.
@coocooachoo568 They are totally different animals. The mCX2 is geared more towards the person without any previous RC experience or, at the very least, no heli experience. the mSR is that next step as you progress.
Have had nothing but problems with 5 in 1 on my msr. It will go off where it wants and won't stop when I shut down controller. Used a DX7 with it and same results. This is second 5 in 1. It wonders real bad now and I can't get that trimmed out. Any input?
@nailitdown100 Same here... Out of the box it pulled hard to the left. Went to the end of trim values and it did'nt make any difference! Called the support number, and the guys told me to adjust the linkage. So I putzed with it for about two hours and any adjustments did'nt come close to stabilizing. The next day I took it back to Charlies Hobbies where I bought it. The heli guy putzed with it, the called the dealer line. The rep told him to tell me to send it to horizon. Not happy.
lol my dad broke the landing gear the second day i bought it. i fixed it though but im still getting the hang of it. its really kool and worth buying =]
Do not use that power cord with the DX6i. It has a very specific charger and you could damage the circuitry of your radio if you use the incorrect adapter.
If you are good at flying the mCX or any coaxial (dual blade) heli, the mSR is the next step, but keep this in mind, the mSR is much more difficult to fly than any coax heli. Its far more fun to fly as well.
The mSR is complete blast to fly. Its extremely challenging and no other micro heli even comes close to the quality of the mSR.
I have a DX7 and use 35% expo to help ease the harshness of the controls. I find its far more difficult to fly with the controller that comes with the RTF.
i have the blade mcx and a blade cp+. i plan on giving my mcx to my dad and buy the mSR for my self. i was wondering if i could use my ccpm transmitter that came with my cp+ . i'd like to fly with him so i'm not sure if i need the RTF or the BNF. i really like my cp+ transmitter and was'nt sure if i could use it with mSR. ( i'm thinking no, but thought it would'nt hurt to ask.) E-flite rocks.
Help, I can't control the heli with a LP5DSM control, I followed the manual , change DIP switch, the foward and reverse, left a right are acting weird, can;t controll the heli, is this radio controller fully compatible?
I just got this heli and when i look at it from the back it the whole main rotor mast looks cocked over to the right a few degrees... i'm wondering if this is normal or not.
Rick, please e-mail me your contact information (e-mail address is under the "More Info" section on the right) and what's going on. I'd like to have someone from product support get in touch with you to see if there's anything that can be done to help you out.
and i called the 1800 number on the box, and found that the people were very helpful. i told them the various things that the heli is doing, and they said its probably a busted gyro, so they are sending me the5 in 1 board free of cost.
they are really helping me out. horizon hobby is being very understanding about it.
thanks, just got to 7:47 and heard about the training gear set. This might be my first helicoptor. Just wanted to let you know that i love what you have to offer at horizon. Its great!
i have flown an rc helicoptor before and would i be able to fly this and teach myself with this. I like the look of this one better than the mcx but would it be flyable?
i got my msr last week and its been going great but today i crashed it into my wall and now the forward and backward servo isn't working. I dont know whether the servo motor is knackered or what. I bought a new servo mechanism of ebay. Any ideas on what it could be and tips on replacing it back onto the control unit. Im a bit nervous onto replacing it because if i solder it and mess it up the unit cost £60!!! Thanks
I got one for Chrsitmas but i am having trouble binding the heli to me DX6i. my club's saftey officer said that its the electronics so we are taking it back on Boxing day. bit of a dissapointment but i cant wait to fly it!
i bound my msr to the recever that came with my mcx, you make no mention of what if any benifits could be had if you were to use the low rate the transmitter has built in to it. would there be any? if so could you tell us?
Nice review u have there horizon and nice chat!!!!!BUT u still havent answered my question!!!NOT even the manual!!!!!!!!i have the BNF version and want to bind it to my DX7.Here is my question!!!!WHAt setting do i choose from the swash type menu on my DX7???
Default is one servo(i left it there cause the manual doenst say anything about it but i believe it s the second option 2servos because two servos move the swashplate!!!!
Anyway i d really appreciate if u answer me that!!!!!
If you insist to use Heli type, use with basic setup, no ccpm. That is all, no mixes no servo reverse, just default settings. Do first setup as airplane so you know what you are doing then do same thing with Heli type, no ccpm. All mixing is handled by Receiver unit.
Should you want to try the heli mode, use the one servo swash type. The advantage of the heli mode is you can enable throttle hold, customize throttle curve, and change the mixing. If you haven't noticed yet, the elevator servo moves when you apply rudder control. That's the built-in mix which you may want to unmix or finetune to your liking.
The E-Flite Blade mSR is the best Micro RC Fixed Pitch helicopter on the Market to date, straight out of the box she flies exceptionally well and although in my videos you see me modifying them I still keep one MSR totally stock so that I may make an unbiased comparison.
Compared to other heli's out there of the same size the Blade mSR is the cheapest to keep in the air.
Even though I fly larger Heli's I find myself flying the mSR much more as I dont need to go to a park or even outside.
It would be nice if the BNF kit came in another stripped down version that didn't include the Celectra charger and power supply.... at least being an option to add later instead of must have to get the heli. I like charging the batteries at .1A on a programmable charger, not a fixed .3A which can be over 3C rate for some batteries (like the 70mah ones) - a range of capacities that use the micro JST connector and this small lipo form factor.
Could this be a good first heli if I have been training on RealFlight G4.5 for a while now? I'm looking for a small heli to fly in an average size backyard or indoors. I am also curious if I should just go ahead and buy a CP Pro 2 or Blade 400. Would they make good beggining helis with flight sim time?
i am just gone 13 and i want to start flying. I live in england and i am going to use the sussex model centre for my helicopters. could i start with the msr as my first helicopter or would it be to difficult. sudgest a different helicopter if i could not use the msr for my first. Please Address this to Christos (thats me) because this is my brothers account.
I'd say it all depends on what coaxial heli and how long you've been flying it. If you're coming from an mCX, CX2 or CX3 and have mastered it then the mSR would be a logical next step.
is this a good first helicopter or is it really worth it to get a coax first? its not much more than the mcx rtr considering you get two batteries and the charger cable with it. i just don't know if it will be too much to handle for a first heli.
I would not recommend this as a first heli. There are just too many fundamentals to learn via the mCX that, if you just jump into the mSR, you may not be successful.
I'm very disappointed Horizon decided to discontinue this model. It's my favorite fixed pitch micro.

i have flown an rc helicoptor before and would i be able to fly this and teach myself with this. I like the look of this one better than the mcx but would it be flyable?
tomtom4867 2 years ago
It's possible but all dependent on your skill level quite honestly.

Hi,
i got my msr last week and its been going great but today i crashed it into my wall and now the forward and backward servo isn't working. I dont know whether the servo motor is knackered or what. I bought a new servo mechanism of ebay. Any ideas on what it could be and tips on replacing it back onto the control unit. Im a bit nervous onto replacing it because if i solder it and mess it up the unit cost £60!!! Thanks

If you think you'll end up buying more than one BNF aircraft absolutely. The DX6i is a great radio for that and it won't break the bank.

Actually yes. Plus it gets you into helis without breaking the bank if you're not sure if you're going to enjoy it or not.

I got one for Chrsitmas but i am having trouble binding the heli to me DX6i. my club's saftey officer said that its the electronics so we are taking it back on Boxing day. bit of a dissapointment but i cant wait to fly it!
Keep up the great reviews!!! :D

i bound my msr to the recever that came with my mcx, you make no mention of what if any benifits could be had if you were to use the low rate the transmitter has built in to it. would there be any? if so could you tell us?
thanks.

The Low Rates make the heli less touchy and easier to fly. It helps compensate if you're overly heavy on the sticks from side to side too.

Nice review u have there horizon and nice chat!!!!!BUT u still havent answered my question!!!NOT even the manual!!!!!!!!i have the BNF version and want to bind it to my DX7.Here is my question!!!!WHAt setting do i choose from the swash type menu on my DX7???
Default is one servo(i left it there cause the manual doenst say anything about it but i believe it s the second option 2servos because two servos move the swashplate!!!!
Anyway i d really appreciate if u answer me that!!!!!
Thank you

If you insist to use Heli type, use with basic setup, no ccpm. That is all, no mixes no servo reverse, just default settings. Do first setup as airplane so you know what you are doing then do same thing with Heli type, no ccpm. All mixing is handled by Receiver unit.
HorizonRCdotCom 2 years ago
Thank you for the reply!!!!Just changed it to airplane mode.
stratosFZ1 2 years ago
Should you want to try the heli mode, use the one servo swash type. The advantage of the heli mode is you can enable throttle hold, customize throttle curve, and change the mixing. If you haven't noticed yet, the elevator servo moves when you apply rudder control. That's the built-in mix which you may want to unmix or finetune to your liking.

The E-Flite Blade mSR is the best Micro RC Fixed Pitch helicopter on the Market to date, straight out of the box she flies exceptionally well and although in my videos you see me modifying them I still keep one MSR totally stock so that I may make an unbiased comparison.
Compared to other heli's out there of the same size the Blade mSR is the cheapest to keep in the air.
Even though I fly larger Heli's I find myself flying the mSR much more as I dont need to go to a park or even outside.

It would be nice if the BNF kit came in another stripped down version that didn't include the Celectra charger and power supply.... at least being an option to add later instead of must have to get the heli. I like charging the batteries at .1A on a programmable charger, not a fixed .3A which can be over 3C rate for some batteries (like the 70mah ones) - a range of capacities that use the micro JST connector and this small lipo form factor.

Hello fellows.
I already have a nine eagles free spirit (model Solo) 4 cannel helicopter that comes with a following 2.4 ghz controller.
can i buy this Blade MSR BNF and bind it to that 2.4 GHZ controller from mine Nine eagles free spirit solo heli. ?
Is this Blade MSR the best 4 channel (25grams class) helicopter on the market today. ?
thx and great review
GroupDenmark 2 years ago
Well of course I am going to say the mSR is the best heli in it's class, would you expect anything less? :)
Unfortunately your transmitter will not work. You need to use a Spektrum DSM2-equipped transmitter to use a BNF product.

Could this be a good first heli if I have been training on RealFlight G4.5 for a while now? I'm looking for a small heli to fly in an average size backyard or indoors. I am also curious if I should just go ahead and buy a CP Pro 2 or Blade 400. Would they make good beggining helis with flight sim time?

i am just gone 13 and i want to start flying.

Hi horizon-team,
I am flying a 3Channel Heli right now (coaxial, of course).
I thought about the mcx, but now I am thinking about an msr aswell.
Do You think, the step from 3Channel coaxial to msr is too big?
And: I will mostly only be able to fly in a quite small flat.
Schould I stick to a mcx rather?
Would be glad for an answer, thanks!
Greets, Rich
wollmamaguckn 2 years ago
I'd say it all depends on what coaxial heli and how long you've been flying it. If you're coming from an mCX, CX2 or CX3 and have mastered it then the mSR would be a logical next step.
HorizonRCdotCom 2 years ago
is this a good first helicopter or is it really worth it to get a coax first? its not much more than the mcx rtr considering you get two batteries and the charger cable with it. i just don't know if it will be too much to handle for a first heli.
venomx4x4 2 years ago
I would not recommend this as a first heli. There are just too many fundamentals to learn via the mCX that, if you just jump into the mSR, you may not be successful.

Hi! I bought a Blade mSR RTF, and I have a Blade CX2. Even being RTF, is it possible to bind the Blade mSR to my Blade CX2's remote contro? Thx!
