    Ok I lovem. Small helicopters have taught me so much!. I used to fly an MCPX all the time untill i got my 450 MiniProtos... Now I love my 450 protos but I am re-discovering the mcpx BL and it is helping me keep my flying tweaked. Unfortunately I cant fly every day and even if i can fly realistically my 450 is as big as it gets. So who else likes the little fellas? I find once you understand their quirks, they are ok but with every small helicopter there are things you need to learn

      Its not that hard dude... once you get it right its awesome. You just have to know the basics. IE no vibes! Solder the tail wire (mcpxbl) make sure your servos are ok. Thats it!

      But I love the MINIP as well! and I love the gobby too. My gobby tends to gobble batteries though...

      What do you expect man. What you expect in performance is what you get out of your minip
      and that said everything not just your battery's ain't Goin to last long. You have to have some sort of compromise.
      maybe you need a logo690sx mate. I know i wouldn't mind one. Lol

      Yeah, you are right! Do you know where i can get a logo for $200 @5Fidy? If you can find one i will take it!... Seriously though i wasnt pushing my gobby that hard, its the batteries that cant keep up...But thats where the little guys are cool i suppose. They dont cost so much...

      The thing with smaller helicopters, when they are modded and powered up they can get away from you so quickly. But they do teach you collective management and give you quick reflexes. The disadvantage is that they can cost you as much as a bigger helicopter when you crash..
