Guys,
Do you think they will ever off a twin rotor high performance version of the CX2 for us guys who have a hard time flying the single rotor helo's?Would be nice if they made something quite larger but still have the easy to fly twin blade system.Is there anything on the drawing board for this?Even a gas twin rotor would be cool also.

just get good at a single rotor

practice on a simulator using single rotor models. FMS is free if you want to try it out. graphics arent the best but the control and flight characteristics are 100%

yeah im using the fms just the dynam version with the radio training box, is helping me out alot, and saving some money

There is the tandem twin rotor from twister...

there is only so much you can do with the cx2 and twin rotor, had my cx2 for the past week and im getting bored with it already lol

as with any thing , if there is enough demand , it will happen , that being said , there is nothing to keep a company from making a large stacked rotor designed heli but even tho they are insainly stable , the fairly limited performance evelope vs the higher cost a larger counter rotate heli would have probably makes production of one fairly unlikely. that said keep in mind that the larger heli's are also much much more stable than the little micro heli's like the cp cp pro ect. a well set up large scale ( non 3d ) gasser would be fairly close in fly-ability to the cx2 , it would just cost nearly 10 times as much or more. the wonderfull thing about the cx2 is how in expencive it is to own and operate as you learn the "basics" of heli flight the down side is to perform well it needs to be in very still air , preferably inside in a gym or somthing. having flown min in a dance hall with no air currents its stunning what that little thing can do when its free of prop wash and air vents .


one last quick note , the best reason for any one to make a larger cx like machine would be to make a scale version of the russian stacked rotor attack helli , and who knows maybe some one allready has some sort of conversion kits out there for that reason. its the only real life full size helicopter that uses a system like that that I know of .

I have seen a couple of other helicopters that used stacked rotors, but they aren't that big. One was a one person helicopter and the other one was a little bit bigger.

yeah the reason I got the cx2 is to learn controls, and the fms is helping as well

You mean like this?
Charly12 on the RCU forum built this one. That's what he does for a living. They get a little pricey as they are actually UAV's but they are cool! Check this out.
