Default RE: MCPX suggestions please


ORIGINAL: Callouscade

i love the whole 3D stuff. mastered it on Phoenix over the winter cant wait to go do it at the field when weather gets warmer.the MCPX intrigues me... so i have a few questions.
1. the blade grips flying off issue... did the new modified head the horizon distributed fix the issue? no more blades coming off?
2. tail blow out.... i- does it happen inverted with the REVOmix or tail curve settings?
ii- does it kill power if it's pirouetting out of control?
3. living room about 10'x15' with 7' ceiling with some furniture... can i have her flipped in there?
4. most important. Worth the investment for some 3D-ish fun!?

thanks in advance
My blades have had no problems for over 100 flights.

Tail blow out is minor.. it only happens if you set too much positive pitch.. you can improve it with revo mix - see my video.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ3azXdAxzA

It never piros out of control

If you are good enough it will flip in that size room.. Personally I couldn't do that yet.. but the heli could.

Worth the investment... ???

Put it this way.. I have been practising inverted in my 450 helis for 4 months and have made very little progress..

This is what 3 weeks on the MCPX have done for me!...

HELLYEAHit was worth it! I bought TWO..
