The Blade CP is the way to go in my opinion. It was my first heli and I am without a doubt a loyal customer for E-Flite. The parts are cheap for repairing the beast if you crash. I had to buy a main chassis, landing gear and tail boom and it cost me a whooping $26 bucks. For $220 ready to go, I don't think you can go wrong. I also bought a Walkera 35 off ebay for 100 bucks and the thing has sat on my shelf and collected dust!! It is just poorly designed and too much work to get flying. You pretty much have to upgrade a bunch of stuff to get it flying and you will spend more than $220 to do it!!

Blade CP is the way to go. Don't waste your money like I did. Invest it in the right product from the get go and you will be better off in the long run!!
