RE: Is the Belt-CP a eCCPM or a mCCPM?
I don't have a BeltCP, but I am almost positive it is "eCCPM". "mCCPM" (a misnomer, actually) uses separate servos for elevator, aileron, rudder, and pitch, with each servo moving independently of the others. "eCCPM" (really just "CCPM" )moves all three in tandem to achieve roll (aileron), pitch (elevator), and blade pitch.
Move the right stick on the TX in ONE direction and watch the servos. If only one moves, it's mechanically mixed ( "mCCPM" ). If two or more move, it's "eCCPM" (Electronic Collective-Cyclic-Pitch Mixing).
I say mCCPM is a misnomer because no "mixing" occurs between the cyclic and collective on a mechanically-mixed system, like a base model MX400 or Trex HDE. The only mixing is throttle-blade pitch ( "collective" ).
The transmitter is probably 72MHz. 35 is primarily Europe (and Australia, I think).

I beleive the Belt CP uses a mechanical collective pitch system.
Here is a link on the Belt CP;

Good luck and good flying.

Actually, I went out to the field one day and a guy with a raptor was there and saw me. I went over to chat and we found that the head and linkages on the belt cp and the raptor 60 were very similar.

The BeltCP is eCCPM. 3 servos. 2 for aileron functions, 1 for elevator, and all 3 work together to provide pitch control.
Not direct link (like newer TREX, or even BladeCP), it uses lever arms. The Fiber upgrade, I believe, has direct to swash style links.
