Default Blade CP Pro

I am a professional photographer in Florida I work for a large newspaper and would like to be able to shoot aerial photos using an RC helicopter. I currently have a Blade CP Pro and using it to learn Helicopter basics. I have already practiced on the Blade CX so now I am moving up to the CP Pro (and breaking a lot of pieces!). From what I am told the CP Pro isnt really a good learner helicopter as it is a micro helicopter and it is very twitchy. BUT on the other hand I was also told that if I can fly the CPP I can fly anything!

Once I learn on the CPP I plan to buy a larger sized helicopter that can be modified to do aerial photography.

Anyone have experience on this PLEASE reply!

Thanks in Advance,

LS

Check into the platic blades for the BCP. They can take alot more hits than the standard blades..

heh heh Ya. I know!

Might put a piece of round foam around the boom, where the blade strikes occur?
