Default mCPV3.9 Board - I need one.

I purchased an mCPx when they first came out. It has more flight time on it than any other heli I have. I've replaced and upgraded just about every part on it. I was stable with no tail way in normal or stunt modes. Now I need a V1 board or at least a viable replacement. I have a new mCPx BL, but want to keep my mCPx flying.

I've checked eXXy and the internet in general and cannot find a 3501 - the mCPV3.9 board. I hope to find another 3501, but need a recommendation for a different board if the 3501 is not longer available. Or if you know where I can get the older board......

The 3501 is the Version 1 3n1 board, no longer mfg'd...replaced by BLH3601, the V2 board

Unless you have or intend to do a brushless conversion using an HP06 or higher main motor, the V2 will work just fine

If you are intent on a V1, shoot Me a PM...

Here you can get a NIP V2 (even though they are using the V1 for the picture)

Default Thanks

Thanks for the address. If the 3601 is as stable (or close) in a hover as the old mCPV3.9, I'll be happy with it.

Yes it is just as stable as the V1

The V2 had some gyro improvements that affected vibrations when using the higher powered brushless outrunner motors, but if you are using the stock motor, you won't notice that

I have several articles in My Blog concerning the mCPX if you care to take a look...one is specific to the V1 / V2 boards

Default Many Thanks

JonJet,

Thanks again for your recommendation. I ordered the board you mentioned, got it in the mail yesterday, installed it today and it is perfect.
