Atcspaul,

Choppersrule Here:

If your flying a Blade CP or CPPro, range is not an issue. Reason being, you're limited to distance of the heli, just for orientation of where the heli is and where the nose is pointing... Not a problem with the DX6/7. You can always do a range check.

You'll loose sight before you loose radio range. Don't worry.

Be careful DX6s are not designed to be used for heli's. Use google search and look up "dx6 not for heli".
DY

PS Shoot that' didn't work for me I know there was a search that pointing to flaws int he heli design.

If you can spare it try to get the DX7 even if that means just getting a DX7 Tx with an AR6100 Rx.

DX7 on ebay is running about $200 and rx is about $40 will ma e a big difference in flight. Just use stock servos and for $40 more you have a DSM2 config.
