Default RE: Done with HeliMax from here on out...

Well, I have had my little Axe CP for a couple of months now. Sure I have crashed, replaced my servos with the HS-55's and it's stock other than the servo's and new LiPo batteries. I am pleased with it. Sure the gyro mod would be nice but I consider the AXE CP an ENTRY LEVEL heli compared to Trex and others. I entend to learn all of the basics of flying a heli with the AXE. Its easy to fix and now (Finally) the parts are pretty easy to come by. I will move up to a Trex 450 or 600 eventually but for now I am more than pleased with my Axe. I went through the same headaches and parts shortage as everyone else but it was new on the market and everyone wanted one, including me. She is a little scraped up, bend tail boom and the main blades are less than perfect but she hovers smooth as butter, well cottage cheese! I intend to keep flying her, and fixing her when I crash and get as comfortable flying heli's as I am riding a bike. Just my two cents worth, which these days is only worth a penny! Keep flying guys, and wish for calm warm days.
