So many asked if they will make something in between the mcpx and the 450x. I guess that's the answer.

[scottevilSR]

oh snap, it's like what the blade SR should have been! I'd totally get one of these.

SOLD. I was hoping for flybarless a little smaller than a 250 but even though I have a 450X on preorder I'll be getting this when it comes out. :bacon

The answer to the Q "are you addicted?" would be yes but it's ok so am i ;)

I thought the trex 250 fbl would come out first but I might just have to pick one of these up instead if it gets good reviews... I just didn't have good luck with the blade sr... but it looks like they are stepping up their game!

I have a FBL 250SE but I may still need to grab one of these.

Looks nice, at 380 thats not bad either. Although I see they have a blade 500X as well but thats like 900 bucks for the BNF, that seems a bit pricey for a blade heli to me.

Its on bladehelis website...as well as the 500 3d and 500 x.

I'm in................I just hope they get this one out on time, and doesn't get pushed back multiple times like 450X.

Blade needs to stop toying with our emotions :bawl

[merlin3]

Just an fyi, you guys are going to love the 300x. It flys so much better than my trex 250 ever did, its a lot lighter than the trex 250 so it allows it to float more.

I'm curious now. :lolol So much for cutting back on my Heli expendatures. :rotf

I know... we're @E@'ed aren't we?

I don't want to be around when the wife sees the dent in the wallet the second mini v-bar just caused....... See these things are physically small, so they are err... somewhat less visible than a new heli, although she was on to me when I brought the tiny (relative to a B450) mini P package home, like a bloodhound..

[wbefield]

My GF knows when I bring home a new heli or heli part. Apparently my demeanor towards her changes and I retreat to my cave. :cheers I quit trying to hide stuff.. I leave the boxes where she will see them to serve as a warning. :)

if it had good servos on it it might be worth almost 400 bucks. those servos will strip out every time you crash on a FBL helicopter with high head speed. probably all 3 of them will strip, and the plastic frame that breaks easily is the other problem...

300 bucks and i would buy it, but not 380.00, i loved my sr when i started out and it was only 160 bucks, once i got good at flying i always wished it had a belt. but almost 400.00 for this thing. only thing good on it is the beast x receiver unit. and those are new and still might have bugs to work out..

I'm sure after it's released you will be able to find a lower price.

hopefully, i would really enjoy a little 300 size, after crashing my 450 yesterday and seeing how much the repair cost is, i am not pleased, and the e flite stuff is not all that expensive to fix, most of it has been junk but it looks like they are really stepping it up with the new stuff ..

the pinion slipped on the motor shaft when i was inverted 1-2 feet off the ground, i hear the motor rev and it was not responding to my pitch change, it got close to the ground and i hit throttle hold, the whole metal head is trashed and i lost a servo gear, the older align 450 helicopters took a beating, maybe it was just a unlucky crash but i was expecting about 20-50 bucks worth of damage, i am looking at 150-175 to fix the damn thing if i buy good blades for it again..

[scottevilSR]

ugh, this is going to delay me getting into FPV

[poor_red_neck]

Why does Horizon release a video, then make private. Wtf is up with that!?

i hope the tail is good.

I thought about maybe getting the 450X when it's released, but this thing has def intrigued me. Probably cheaper replacement parts cost too. 3D performance looks pretty damn good.
