Default A cool carrying case for the CX

I found this while searching eBay. It's a camera accessory case which was intended to be used for a tripod or other similar accessory. It's the Amvona Case 1026, and it is quite high quality for the price, with pre-glued foam, shoulder strap and moveable dividers.

These go on auction every day. There is a buy it now auction for $79 (+ $24 shipping), but if you bid on the daily auction you can get a great deal. I payed about $24 (plus shipping).

I have space for my transmitter, as shown in the attached pictures, but I have to unscrew the antenna. Furthermore, I had to remove the 1/2" plastic stub from the top of the transmitter, where the antenna goes. That being done, the transmitter fits perfectly. Because of the "rubber duck" antenna on the CX2 transmitter, I don't think that one can be made to fit. I have Jamie's Mod1 carbon fiber boom, and the heli fits perfectly in the case. I think the stock CX body is slightly longer, but there should be room for it. Neall
