Or wait untill the new Eflite blade 400 comes out... but, i have a blade CP pro, and i love 3Ding it.. My first helicopter i have ever flipped inverted, and i think its a great way to start off, and there really is no reason to modify it..

I'll say the same thing TT said. Save your pennies and get the B4003D. I'm gonna get one when they are available (October'ish, right?) Jon

One of the best mods you can do, is put a GWS direct drive tail motor on it. All of the parts will cost you about $26, and the tail response is night and day different. Keith |

Hey beam me up Scotty, here is some Blade CP Pro mods & wiki's you can do for your bird enjoy. ---Vernski http://bladecprepair.com/man_bh_upgrade.htmlI almost forgot to tell you about my tail mod, I changed out the N30 tail motor for a Heli-Max N60 it's a little heavier than than the N30 but not as heavy as the double motor mod. So far it has held up to 2 mo's of abuse and hardly gets warm to the touch. You can get the motor and mount at Tower Hobbies in the Heli-Max parts section Keep it in the air Guys Last edited by Vernski; 09-02-2007 at 07:01 AM. Reason: spaced it off |

don't wast your money or time. Just save up for something with better tall respons. Wicth every one hate about the bcp and bcp pro. With all the money that I put into the one that I have I could've had me a t rex 450.

If I didn't want to waste my money & time I would find a different hobby. I think there is a little Blade bashing going on here, the time to tell someone not to buy one is before they have bought one. The one thing a Blade will do is transform you from a tinker to a fair heli mechanic. I think that a noobie starting with a T-rex is not the best advice, the replacement parts are a lot more expensive and overwelming to work on. Not that some can't do that, you can hover a Blade in your living room. I would be afraid to do that with my HDX 450 [T-rex clone] not that, that couldn't be done either. But a crash is emenit not if but when it happens witch repair bill is cheaper? Balance is the key for a Blade every thing has to be balanced good. The paddels, head, rotors makes them much easyer to fly. They all have there place on the heli chain I have a E-sky CP-2 and a E-sky HB K2 witch required just as much tinkering as the Blade. Fly what you have and enjoy the hobby.---Vernski |
