Blade mCP X BNF (RTF specs the same but include transmitter)

Blade mCP X RTF & BNF by BLADE (0 min 45 sec)

Overview
This helicopter will give transitioning pilots a more agile and capable collective pitch heli that will give them the confidence to master indoor aerobatics without the hesitance which comes with a larger outdoor only platform. Not to mention the cost makes it much more economical when learning.

It comes out of the box 100% factory built and equipped with a factory-installed Flybarless 3-in-1 Control Unit with Spektrum 2.4GHz DSM2 receiver, ESCs, and gyros. A ready-to-fly version with 2.4GHz DSM2 transmitter and a Bind-N-Fly version without transmitter, for those who already own a DSM2 aircraft transmitter, are available. Both variations include two 1S 200mAh 25c batteries, single port charger with AC adapter and a 1s High Current Ultra-Micro Battery Adapter Lead.

Using an integrated Flybarless system, the heli to gets up in the air without a mechanical flybar. The benefits of this system provides reduced drag on the main rotor head which results in more power, longer flight times, and provides the pilot the best of both worlds between stability and agility.

The Bind-N-Fly mCP X comes assembled with everything you need to fly in the box except a transmitter. Just charge the battery and bind the helicopter to any DSM2 compatible aircraft transmitter, and you'll be flying in no time.

^^^^^ I Agree

I've been waiting for this one for quite some time, thought they (E-flite) were getting pretty-close with the mSR (and all the forum-talk of a CP-type model).
Didn't see the fbl-feature coming but for me this is AWESOME !!!!

Always a "Micro-Nut"

I Really hope this brings compition or up grades not really saying blingage but more or less maybe like a motor upgrade or battery up grade or for people who like CF and and better than that would be other companies producing a like product.

Dicey on Episode 52 of the RC Freak Podcast interviewed the 2 developers from HH about this heli. Good conversation. The more I hear about this heli, the more I believe this is a great next step up from the mSR or SR120 to learn basic aerobatics. This heli will not be entering and winning any Smackdowns. Dicey's podcast can be found for free via iTunes.

Programed it for my DX 7 which was no problem.
