Keep your CX2 and get an mCX. I had the CX2 first like you and had issues like you and was frusrated like you. But I bought the BNF mCX s-300, binded it to my Tx and was very HAPPY! I just now got my CX2 flying right after repairs and Guess What? I DON'T CRASH MY CX2 AS MUCH! And I don't call them crashes, just some blade strikes against the wall or a moderate landing. The first thing I did was upgrade the landing gear and there are blade grips out there that allow the blades to fold which makes them more durable in a blade strike (the grips and blades are an uprade and will not work with stock equipment, however).... I'm getting that next....... The mCX allows you to fly it around the house easily cause it is so small. The CX2 needs a lot of space indoors to get the full potential, ohter wise hovering, a little forwards and backwards and a little side to side is all you gone get in small spaces (sounds like a dance huh?).
Thanks for the advice. What is the upgrade for the lending gear, I know from my last relatively soft landing that they are weak. Is their someone that makes them out of better material? If so who and where to get it?

Thanks
Jim
