Two of my friends and myself bought one Blade CP Pro each, and all three units were flight tested by an experienced pilot out of the box. Two of them were found to be very satisfactory, one of them was basically flawless. With an experienced hand at the stick, mine was tuned to peak performance in minutes, and I then proceeded to destroy my first set of blades and bend one main shaft. I am very happy with that product, considering what you get for less than 300 CAN$. Of course, I was forewarned before I bought it, so I expected to crash, and I expected that it would be costly to repair. But you have to remember how much a RC helicopter used to cost to fly and maintain ten years ago. I also think I entered that learning experience with a very humble attitude, I did not expect to succeed the first time.

Better luck in the future,
Georges
