Default RE: Wheeeeeeee.......... Blade CP!

Personally, I think you'll think it's a toy. A CP-Pro is NOT really 3D serious out of the box. It can do it but with limitations. In order to have a serious performer, it has to be upgraded to brushless motor/gryo etc...adding $200+ to the cost of the unit. But then again...you might like it. I have found them to be labor intensive and expensive. When they're running good...they are great. When they're not...it's heck getting them fixed because causes are harder to determine and one problem looks like something else. For something to mess around the yard with...YES CP-Pro is the best one STOCK that you can buy at this point. Stay away from Walkera!!!

OK Guys, Ive been flying r/c for 40yrs. And have a 60 xcell left in my coral ,which i can do anything with.
Years ago i had a EP, when i had my hobby shop .. 800.00 of hovering junk, But for the times i guess it was ok..

My question, will i like the CP PRO or think its a toy.. For the $$$ seems to be the best out there.
TREX is nice but $$$$. Rather crank up the xcell..
