I have both Eflite and Walkera helis and there is just no comparison if you are talking about smaller helis. The smaller Eflites are more toy quality helis with a lot of plastic parts while the Walkera helis are upgraded with (hobbie quality) aluminum/metal rotor heads, carbon re-enforced blades (stiffer) and more powerful motors. For a beginner, I would buy the Walkera 5#10 over the Eflite CX2, the Walkera 4G1B over the CX, the Walkera 5G6 over the MCX. I don't think I would buy another Eflite heli until they catch up on the upgrades and lower their prices. That might be a long wait my friends.... [8D]
