Default Argh`

Hello every one just outa curiosity i weighed my CX2 an its 8 ounces, my cp+ is 10. So basically thats probally why it flys like crap. Not realy trying to make a point just venting. Maybe ill look into a king2 being that im still learning ccpm n a rear rudder.

The HBK II is an awesome heli once its upgraded, motor and esc must be changed to brushless, stock motor will crap out in less then 10 flghts, 43t pulley upgrade is sweet and a better gyro will make the HBK II very nice

You can pretty much assume that any heli with a tail motor will fly like crap- my CPP did compared to my belt driven HBK2. Night and day diference.

If you got a Belt CP the first thing you'd wanna do is get a new Tx/Rx for it, the stock radio equip for my Belt has been super glitchy since I got it. I still like my HBK II a little more though, little more tame.

You might just want to get FMS- free and you can download any heli/plane you want.

Yep- you can't go wrong with a HBK2- great prices for replacement parts, and very low maintenance. The Blade CPs were just maintenance hogs for me- best move I made was when I went to a HBK2.
