crash,

I'm interested in your DX6 experiences... I know you'll continue to share, thanks!
I also, agree with the upgrades. The CP Pro with programmable TX and G90 gyro make a world of difference and think they are more of a requirement then an option.

barrick,

old friend, you summed it up great! I too have purchased the E-Flite helis (CX, CX2, CP, and CP Pro) brand new out of the box and have been very happy with the "Out of Box" experience. I have found E-Flite to be an excellent product
FOR THE PRICE, (you get what you pay for!)

However, my inexperience as a pilot (I've only been flying helis for about 5 months, and these are my first helis) quickly realized, these helis are only ready to fly out of the box.....

until you CRASH,

and if these are your first helis....
it's inevitable, you will crash.
(except for our amazing friend Rick)

Then,

one of two things will happen;


1) you will quickly become engrossed into the world of micro heli mechanic,

OR

2) you will sell your heli!



For those of you who choose the first path, this is a great thread to follow!

For those of you who choose the second path, someone reading this thread will have probably bought your heli!
