Default RE: First Heli


ORIGINAL: ParkFlyer7235

I am thinking of buying my first Helicopter. I have been flying a HobbyZone Super Cub and I know the heli will be quite different. I can't decide if I should go for the Blade CX2, the CP, or the B400. I like the CX2 but I have been told it doesn't do well outdoors. I would like to be able to take a helicopter to the park with my Super Cub and be able to fly it with a little wind. Would the B400 be my best bet and if so how difficult is it for a beginner to learn to fly?

Thanks,
Mark
The cx2 is a great beginner chopper that doesnt cost the earth but doesnt perform miricles either, its a lot of fun, it teaches you diciplin but its by no means a b400 or a trex, it totally different, its a confidence builder and oriantation teacher and will fly outside if modded ie. servos arm moved out and vortex extended flyshaft etc

But its a totally different manchine, great for indoors not so good out, but same to be said for b400 and trex etc, no good (and dangerous ) indoors, great outdoors
