RE: Next step for heli noob
Don't like either the axe cp or blade cp, both have tail motors which tend to burn out due to their small size. The belt cp is also a 450 size heli so it's going to be 25% bigger than either the axe or blade and it has a belt driven tail, comes stock with brushless motor/esc and lipo as well.
Look at the specs on them all and decide. I had the blade cp and sold it as fast as I could after getting the honey bee king2.
