      Rock Doctor,

      Whenever I see you start a thread with a subject along the lines of "new toy" I just know it's going to be something good! Keep playing with those toys and sharing the footage with us!

        It's a crazy little thing. I'm new to it, but this thing will move like a Dragon Fly if you let it. I have it toned way down for flying in the house.
        It has a real collective, which will allow you to reverse the Pitch on the Blades....... This thing can fly/hover UP SIDE DOWN.
        So, it looks like I have some learning to do, after hours, at work.
        Imagine how the controls reverse themselves depending on whether the machine is facing you or facing away........ Then throw in the reversals with it upside down......... My head already hurts and I have not even touched on it's ability yet

          oh ya, DO NOT fly into yourself
          I hit myself just above the waist on my right side (Diane said that's my "Love Handle"), anyway, I damn near screamed. Holy FLIP that hurt.
          Then a grazed my arm, and the blade actually SHAVED a patch of hair off my forarm, and left a "Roadrash" like scrape. Oooooooooooh that still burns.

            I can see it now, it'll only be a matter of time before the lawyers hear about something like this and start with the lawsuits. Oh the children, they're going to cut themselves and so now nobody should have a toy like this and the "victims" that got "injured" should each get half a million dollars.

                        Had a couple of those units. REALLY fun in the shop! The reason I say couple is that I found out how high my dog "Sloan" could jump with the first one! AWSOME midair catch at about 7'! I was very impressed, but had to get another one. Just a word of advise, if you are using your helicopter for rescuing a downed "micro" plane off of a shop roof, use fishing line and a huge treble hook, NOT a piece of haywire shaped into a hook...doesn't work at all, fortunately my son-inlaw was available to provide the high tower rescue of both units!!

                          I kind of went a little crazy on this. I now have 3 Eflite Helicopters ( MCPX v2, Nano cpx, and the MSRX), as well as a couple Walkera's ( Super FP and a little Miny FP). Got the Eflites from Horizon Hobby, Broker Fees are killing me) and the Walkera's from xheli.
                          Best not to just jump into these, they take some practice to fly. A beginner should start with something less expensive, like the little mini FP from xheli. Sale price is under $30.
