hi
been flyin my lama for a few months now and really enjoy it(sticking with co ax helis for now after bad single bladed heli experiences lol)
like the look of the blade cx2 looks a lot more solid than my lama,but is it? live in the uk and my local shops does not stock spares so have to buy online what are the blades like? in the early days with my lama i broke several pairs due to them being very thin also the tail
on my lama may as well been made of glass it was so brittle.
anyhow mutch more used to it now and hardly ever crash,like i said i happy with twin blade helis for now so is makeing the cx2 blade a good choice for my next buy?
my poor lama needs a break from flying though to give it credit it has served me well and still going strong.
any comments advice very mutch appreciated.
happy flying peeps!

I just went the other way, they are about the same, and the Lama takes crashes better because the blades break away.

My Lama seems to fly a lot smoother than my CX2 ever did, I will say that, it's got that nice, oiled and smooth mechanical sound. On my CX2 I always had a mechanical whining noise.

I have a Blade CX2 and absolutely love it. I think it's a great choice especially if you plan on flying inside only or ZERO wind.
I don't know if it will fly any better or differently than your Lama.
I've only had a couple crashes where I broke one rotor blade and one landing skid. Other than that it's been problem free.
There are numerous upgrades and replacement parts can be found all over the web and LHS's.
Very stable out of the box and upgrades can enhance performance and control like a shorter/lighter flybar, CF tailboom etc.

I have the Lama V3 and the V4, plus a Blade CX. MY CX is rubbish. The Lamas fly great, and once you put on the Xtreme blades, they are two tough helicopters. The CX is a pig, noisy, always needs something, just like the ex.

ha ha thanks for the advice!you must be a mind reader lol coz ive decided to stick with the lama for now and was just gonna order extreme blades and tail coz mines a bit beaten up lol.
