They should be more-or-less equally easy to fly. CCPM (Cyclic Collective Pitch Mixing) combines the movements of two or three servos to effect each control function (roll, pitch, and collective). This has the effect of spreading the load across multiple servos, usually resulting in better response. HDE is the traditional mixing where each servo is assigned to a single function. Stronger servos are needed to get the same effect as with CCPM.

The CDE ahd HDE versions fly nearly the same, and require the same servos. The CDE is NOT a direct to swash servo connection, the CF frame is for about US$80.00.

This makes sense BUT CCPM uses 3 servos at one time,,,can you imagine massive draw of 3 servos at one time on a Battery?

Higher torque servos are required on eCCPM heli's because they are actuating
the swashplate directly ( no mechanical advantage like HDE ( mechanical CCPM ) )

The current draw on the battery will be slightly higher with eCCPM than mechanical
CCPM.
