Is there no end? I have this almost uncontrolable urge to buy every dang upgrade they make for the CPP. But, by the time I sink $108-137 in CNC head, $119 CNC frame, $80-100 for brushless main, DD tail $20-30, HH gyro $60-90 so on and so forth I'm about half way to a Trex 450se V2.
Intervention time. LOL

Save the money and buy a Trex. I have seen used ones for as low as $350.00. Or you could do as you said spend all this money on a cp. But in the end it still wont fly that well. And then you will probally buy a Trex and wonder why you waited...

the blade will fly awsome if you put a hh gyro, dd tail, and possibly bl main. and a computerized tx (which really shouldn't be included as an upgrade as you'll still need it once you get a better heli)

Thanks for the advice. I'm trying real hard not to put anymore money into the CPP. I boght a CX2, a week later bought a CPP tons of parts for both, lots of painted canopies, Marine fuse, police fuse, red fuse yada yada, probably not alot of $$ for most people on here. Probably spent at least a grand in the last 4-6 weeks including G3.5 and I cant even nose in hover yet LMAO. Man, once your bitten by the RC helicopter bug theres no turning back!
