| Nine Eagles Draco CX |
| With the flight battery fully charged and installed, I set the heli on the floor and started bringing up the throttle. After take-off, I adjusted the (digital) trims on the rudder and forward cyclic. The Draco CX settled into a near perfect hover. At this point, I must admit, I was impressed! |

| JR Vibe 50 NEX |
| The NEX 50 however, has taken high quality and attention to detail to a new level for 50 size helicopters. It's much more like a shrunken down version of the 90SG (Scott Gray design) than an evolution of the original Vibe. It sports a new look with carbon fiber frames, a red and black painted f... |
