Hey cx2cp,
Is their a winner for this competition yet? Maybe we can use the Golden Flybar as a "crowning" prize that gets passed on from winner to winner.
So I could mail it out to whoever has the best video now and if someone beats them then they have to send it out to them.
All the winners could take pictures of their cx's with the golden flybar and post it up in this page.
How does that all sound? If you like the idea then let me know and choose a winner that I can send it out to.

contest never ends - current winner chosen whenever somebody puts up a video that makes us all say 'wow, i think we have a winner' - rice can send the golden flybar, and if they lose to somebody else, they have to pass it on in a timely fashion - i bought the falcon 3d last night so i'm busy for a while too - highly frustrated at not being able to do much with my big heli's cause they are all so close to perfect and i didn't want to trash them by doing stunt stuff- same reason i have 2 cx's, one good one, one crap one i do stuff with - this slightly-bigger-than-the king-2 plastic and fiberglass single-rotor going to be the stunt car i'm afraid (poor thing -i can hear its servos chattering at the thought)

I just dumped all my blades into a pot and let them boil for about 5 minutes. I have about 16 perfect blades All I need is a scale to weigh or balance them so that they can find their soul mates.

I tried to hover mine inside my garage during a cold winter's night. Will try to post a better one soon.
