Default Just bought my first REAL Heli! Axe CP-L

Hey yall... I've had a Lama V3 and a falcon 40 and have mastered both quite easily, I just tonight purchased from towerhobbies an Axe Cp-L Lipo powered Helicopter, did I make a really good choice, I picked the 3 payment method so only 66 dollars a month I've seen videos of stock cp-l's and even stock cp's fly and im very impressed, I think I made a good choice. DID I?

Alright mastered as in with the falcon 40 I could fly around the house, switch rooms, keep a steady hover until battery died, and outside, do forward flight w/ the falcon, figure eights, and with the lama, deffianatly mastered that haha that things almost too easy to fly, I could go upstairs, land on candles, etc.....

better to replace the center hub as it is easy to brake, get the micro heli brand from heli direct.
mine broke last time while hovering , didn't hit anything or crash when it broke, blade are balance, paddle are also balance. since i replace it to cnc, it perform better than before.
Don't replace the blade grip, stay on plastic, just in case it crash, less $ as just the plastic will break. also if you can replase the washplate also to cnc type.
