I just made the move from the CX2 to the CP+ last Friday. My first test flight was nerve racking. Trying to get it to hover was like trying to walk a greased tight rope. I think it took me at least 8 take off attempt to get it to hover in one spot for 3 seconds. Right off the bat I noticed the "tail" was the hardest thing to get under control. It took constant movement of the stick to get it under control.

The very next day I went to the LHS and purchased the G110 Heading lock Gyro. It was like night and day. After some tweaking to the proportional mixer and gyro gain. The bird will now lift off and stay in the position I desire it to. Oh yea....after you install the Gyro and disable the proportional mixer like the instructions say. You "will" need to go back and make adjustments to the proportional mixer. You'll find this out after your first test flight.

Like rotarydoc said. It won't hold the heli rock solid steady. But it will help "tremedously". You will at least be able to hover and keep the nose oriented in the direction you desire with small control inputs.

I was also told that the direct drive rear rotor will help with a more direct feel for the tail controls. I have mine on order. Should be arriving any day now.

Hope this help! Good luck!
