CPPRO-I've had enough$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

The debate can go on forever on how the blade pro saved me from several crashes on my TRex, or whatever upgraded heli that was bought thereafter. This is really the hard way to learn. Spend the $250 or less on a good simulator and practice.;) This is really the cheapest and best way to learn. My friends and I have nicknamed the blade pro "Damien":flamedevil, because in a perfect environment with no wind, the gravitational pull on the earth is steady, and the tides are low, the Blade Pro will still fly like :BSS. Things like, "It helped me learn to fly the tail" is a way of masking that the tail is :BSS. Be honest with yourself. It is like saying that learning without power steering on your car is the best way to learn how to drive a car. Or that learning without power brakes, power steering, and an automatic transmission is really the best way to learn how to drive a car. Embrace the amenities that are out there in this hobby and buy a machine that will help you enjoy flying, not spending time on the bench and money to make something fly better that should really be "ready to fly". Cheap ball links, main shafts that bend if you concentrate hard on them, I can go on :soapbox. This heli was not engineered right from the beginning and aftermarket companies have to "fix" what should have been fixed from the drawing board is very sad in my opinion. This is a Pinto in disguise and it does not matter if you paint flames on the side, it is still a Pinto.:roll:
