Hey guys, my sister is getting a CP Pro for her husband's b-day (on my suggestion) and I was wondering how difficult do you think it will be for him to learn on that? He is a Black Hawk/ Huey pilot in the Army, so he knows very well how to fly real copters, but no real experience on an R/C one. He did fly my brother's Axe EZ and flew all over the place with no problems on the first shot, so hopefully he'll be alright. Any thoughts?

It might be easier for him since he is a pilot. Just tell him to take it slow.

The CP is going to be a lot harder to fly than the Axe EZ, but if he picked up the EZ that easily he'd probably get board with it real quick. The CP will provide more of a challenge which may be good. Might also want to consider the Esky Honey Bee King 2. It's about the same price (actually I think it's a bit cheaper than the CP Pro but use the difference to upgrade to the brushless motor) but has a belt driven tail which will be more responsive than the motor driven tail. Being a real pilot he might appreciate that
