I just got my blade cx. I am new to this type of flight . I also own a Blade cp, which I can fly fairly well. This helecopter (blade cx) should have been my first one. It is very easy to fly and hover, esspecaly compaired to the blade cp. I does seem kinda slow and less responsive but this makes it easy to fly indoors. I can fly it through the house between doorways and do spot landings with ease. Over all I would higly recomened this craft, It is perfect for the first time flier.
