Thanks Raychristofer.......well i'm a Technical person by nature and profession and i researched this little baby for months before deciding to purchase.....i've already fused the motors to protect the 4 in 1, modded the TX and removed all springs and the throttle notch and i knew that the stock plastic head was a weak point so i got an alum head and inner shaft along with the alum bearing holder in my parts collection.....i've got 5 packs of upper and 5 packs of lower blades and three packs of skids.......i made sure to get enough of the things that, from my research, tend to break most often.....i'll be adding a spare servo, extra battery packs, carbon tail-boom, VORTEX outter and inner shafts and an alum lower rotor head to my future parts/upgrade list.......i actually tore my bird completely down the first night i got it to check all parts and tolerances to be sure nothing was damaged intransit to Jamaica and lubed all joints.......i did sum adjusting and tweaking of the GAIN and POTS and she's as stable as ever......all i can say about the Blade cx series is that dollar for dollar u can't beat them and i've already gotten sum frens of mine interested in the hobby and they're now arranging to get the CX2 themselves....looks like i've started sumthing here [8D]. Thanks for all the help and info guys and keep those vids coming.
