RE: looking to transfer over to heli's
I'm currently flying the Evo 50 and highly recommend it. It should be a good choice for scale as well. Hirobo makes at least one scale fuse that I know of for the Evo and there are other sources including Century. You're right about the Blade CP. Any of the small electrics will be a handful to start on. I also have a TREX 450XL and while I like flying it it is nowhere near as stable as my Evo 50 and the Evo 50 also handles much more wind than the TREX.
