Blade CX2 is good choice in between the Havocs & Honeybees.

Havocs I have coined as "elevator" helicopters.

The most asked question to Mr. Herbert's Science Class is this.

"What is the best helicopter (in between) the Havoc type elevator helicopters and the Honeybee type CP helicopters to learn on.




A good choice is the Blade CX2 by E-Flight.

This is a very stable machine that uses the same control functions as a larger RC helicopter, yet gives you the time to figure out the controls during the learning process.

You won't be sorry if you get one of these, and the newer versions are now available too. Call Donovan's 800-279-6945.
(And no, I am not being compensated by them)
They are just good guys.

i own a cx2 and its brilliant...when i started getting more confidant with it i moved the part that links the servos with the swashplate to the middle hole making it more agile but in dooing this i got a bit cocky and had a blade strike (when the top and bottom blades smash together) buckling both inner and outer rotor shafts a,i managed to replace the inner shaft and i was wondering if u had any special ways of getting the screw out of the bearing that holds the outer shaft in place!!!!?!?!?!?

[NightFlyyer]

Not sure on that. If you tighten the blades, so not so loose you will not have as many blade strikes. Radical moves do that. I havent had one in my hands for over a year, but maybe if you watch my cx2 upgrade video, you may see a clue. Good luck.

i got a spektrum 6ex or wat ever its called a few months ago and it died any recomend a good 6 ch radio other than the spektrum

[NightFlyyer]

Spectrum DX6i is an excellent radio. Futaba, JR and Hitec also make good ones. If you radio is only a few months old, better return it, because it is still under warranty and there was a recall too.
