I upgraded from a CX2 to the CP+ about a month ago. Was a simple transition IMO. From what i hear the CP Pro is much more difficult to fly than the CP+. I love my CP+, it does everything i expected it to and is capable of doing more. I wasnt looking for something to fly upside down and all that, just wanted to learn a single main rotor heli. I would recomend anyone to learn the CP+ before jumping right into the CP Pro or equivelent. If you can fly the CX without any trouble you should be able to fly the CP+ with no problems after just a couple battery packs. It is much more fun to fly than a CX, and a little harder on the nerves.
