I own a half dozen E-flite blade heli's which include my be loved mCpx......was looking at this model today in my local hobby store to see if the quality matched the mCpx...the quality of the plastic was definitly there...now trying to catch some vids of the Novus cp to try n get some feed back on how it flys
my friend told me that It only flies for two minutes at a time and really not capable of moderate 3d flight in stock trim. Like I said two minutes, what can you do in two minutes.

I have one of these, it is obvious why it crashed. As soon as you increase the pitch to climb it created too much of a current draw. Either the battery of something else can't keep up. The tail stops working and you have no control. I have tried different batteries and the brushless conversion and it still has the same problem. I also have the Novus CX...also a problem child.
I think this video is more advertisement for Helimax
For one he nosedived it straight into the pavement I have bump mine in to the vacuum cleaner and had to rip the whole thing apart just to replace a feathering spindle and plus to go after he showed crash if you look hard the blades are broken then the next video shows them fine this video is bull shit
But it is a very durable helicopter but not that durable I have crashed mine and had luck but there is no way that it would flown after that
@wtfruthinking1986 Usually i don't allow foul mouthed responses to my videos but for you I will make an exception. The video is not faked or edited out of sequence, the copter crashed, true, the blade was damaged but the helicopter continued to fly. I have one of these helicopters & I choose not to fly it because I'm not good enough to fly it. What you need to do is decide whether yours crashed in to the sofa or a vacuum cleaner.
I got a novus fp , never flew a heli before and 10 days later I think I do pretty well, love flying it outside now. Can do a good hover too. Super strong from the millions of crashes, tape and glue hold some parts together, and almost every repair part is under $6 though ive only replaced 1 part from crash, and 1 part my fault trying to cram in battery. Even new battery is $10
I read alot of bad things on this brand, but so far good for a beginner like me. Check my videos
if u never flown a heli i highly recomend great planes real flight simulator first well worth the 200 bucks will save ur wallet in parts on helis this little heli looks like a lot of fun for inside the house
lol nothing but problems? comparing a 6ch 3d heli with ccm to a 4 chanel isnt close.. this heli is hard to fly light and fast hard to fly but really fun with upgrades.
ya i had a blade cx2 sold it and like year latr bought the blade MSR, awesome heli by the way, and then i just bought the novus cp yesterday and love it...im hovering really,doin few circles nothin big dont wana crash it lol..hey man good control on the flying by the way

@fikrimml That's why most people have about 3 or 4 batteries..........your better heli's all fly for about the same time

Hi...
I read in many forums that the novus FP brushed motors burn out and die very quickly!
Have you ever had any problems with you little helicopter ?
Approximately how long do you think the brushed motors would last ?
And finally ...... for how long do you fly your helicopter with one battery pack ?!

"this video is bull shit" qualifies as foul mouthed in my book.

what is the difference between the cp and the Walkera 4g3?

nothing, except the cp is american built wth quality electronics, hence the slight raise in price.

I can't believe that didn't take any damage. Great stuff ...
I almost bought one today (@ $220). I have the mSR and would really like to try the CP helis.

I have one of these little gems. It's fast, fun and squirrely to fly. You do a nice job. It does like to get away from you.
