Just so you know, I've got a Blade CX, and its taught me ALL the basics I think. I've flown it plenty in the last couple of months. It's a real good starter machine I think, cheap to fix too. I'm going slow and easy, joined the local RC club, AMA and all. Next heli is on the way- an Esky Honey Bee MK3 FP. I think it should be a good one for learning to fly a tail rotor machine-the next logical step for me in the journey to a CP machine. Slow and easy wins the race for me...Good luck-we'll look for you here.
if the honey bee is anything (i think it's the same heli as a blade cp just under e skys name) like the blade cp get spare tail motors (yes plural), a spare motor, and a ton of spare tail booms. it's going to be a hand full to say the least. it's a twitch bi**h if it is a blade cp clone, or the cp is a clone of the honey bee. if you can master it you can fly anything. oh ya get a few tail blades as well.
enjoy the ride. start saving for the next heli. i recommend a trex sa. reasonably priced, and parts are everywhere.
