Default Blade CX / CX2 Gallery

I couldn't find a gallery thread for the cx/cx2, so I figure I'd start one.
Here's mine...show yours

Man that's a good looking CX2! I love the looks of the Xtreme canopy and tail boom. I use the Boomtown boom because it's light weight but I like the looks of the Xtreme better. I also like the Boomtown skids better so your heli is very appealing to me personally[8D]

That looks really good. I like the orange. I haven't seen one done like that before.
Here's where I ended up.

Very Nice heli, the Alum blade grips that you have are they hard to install. Does rthe heli fly better with those and the other type of blades.
Thanks

Been here a while, first post. You guys got some great looking helis! Very informative site!

Here's mine; all Xtreme and Eflite metal including extended shaft. Xtreme blades, boom, motors, and canopy (chopped for cooling), painted inside with Tamiya PS spray metallic purple w/silver overcoat, and Deans Micro Connectors.

They are replacements for the stock JST connector that originally came with the heli.
People use Deans because they are low resistance connectors.

Stock JST:

I had a nice Xtreme canopy but I banked it too much to close to the ground and couldn't recover.

That HUGHS is awesome!!! I finally went the carbon tail route and it flies outside waaaaaay better! I adjusted the gain to get rid of tail twich..........whilst I was there I finally put on my motor heatsink.......it worx great............further I shortend my flybar by the size of the "weight hook"! Lastly I got rid of my mostly packing tape stock CX2 fuse and went with the blue CX fuse.....I like it a lot better. Note the hole punch vents in the canopy!

Good looking bird Clean! I notice the suspicious absence of the heat sink and that at least on the starboard side the holes have not been filled out in the servo arm Further, do you fly that thing w/o a flybar??
