In fact, I just picked up a very nice used CX and may do just that when the CX2 4-in-1s become available. I already have a CX2 and thought I'd 'practice' with the CX.

I haven't done any R/C stuff for about 10 years and I forgot how long the transmitter antennas were! I'm already spoiled by the mini-antenna on the CX2.
