Default same heli as the blitz matrix 250r

good flying flybarless 250 size. have to be careful with the tail gears they strip quickly. it is a fast and agile 3d bird. I fly the blitz and it works for me. just have to check and replace tail gears from time to time.it uses 3gx software for the fbl.

I ordered one from Wow Hobbies and it came with the Devention 10 radio. It's sitting at home waiting for me to pick it up. (I'm a truck driver).

I've read the reviews on it and it seems to be a good heli to start with if you want a challenge. It's my first 6ch and I'm looking forward to going thru the learning process of flying it. Being mechanically inclined (helicopter mech in the Army) fixing it should be a breeze. It's the other things that go into making it fly that I will need to learn.

I would not recommend the 200d03 at all! The main and tail gears strip with the slightest blade strike (even when you engage the throdle hold prior to a minor hovering blade hit). I am selling mine because I am sick of replacing those damn gears. The screws are crap as well. Several screws fell out of mine during the first flight. Then when ever you do repairs the screws strip with the slightest twist of the screwdriver. I can't get mine to stop drifting to the left and back. It has not flown right since I got it. It came with stripped main and tail gears as well. I have a 450d03. That helo is stable and has been a good bird. My only comaint with that one is the crappy screw that strip with the slightest turn of the screwdriver. The screws and Allen screws have stripped with the tools provided and with my own set of tools. I think walkera did this as another way of making money!!!!!! Hope you have better luck! James

I love mine, the tailbox gears have never been a problem for me, I have done the driveshaft and front gear. I believe butter is the base material for Chinese metal, you just get used to it and compensate.

I've flown over 50 packs, replaced one cyclic and one tail servo. Walkera servos will make you cry, one of my m120's lost the tail servo today. No crash, it failed preflight control check.

Walkera has some trouble with QC, but if you get all good parts, and it's put together right it's a good bird. Ace motor from WOW makes it even more fun.

I don't see a Blade that size I'd rather have...Align is a step up, but maybe a bit more agile and fragile...hard to say I like one more than the other. The 03 and it's modest presence and good behavior was my go-to flier for this mornings respectful hover event.
