MCX modifications, performance upgrades and other hints/tips

26-04-2009, 10:52 AM

After doing a quick search, there's loads of 'bitty' threads but I could not find one that details most upgrades available for the blade MCX. So I thought I'd start a thread and, perhaps other people can add links to sites that offer after market modifications?

So far, I have the ali head upgrade, two 130ma overlander batteries and an overlander mains charger.

Websites

Body/cosmetic options:
Blade MCX

Battery options:
Overlander Batteries - The UK leader in Battery Packs, Speed Controllers and Single Cells

Other MCX Mods from rcgroups.com:

Please add to thread

Metal head for the MCX - seriously?

73

On a scale of 0 to 3D, about 1.53 and counting (backwards at the moment...). Getting there though, 0.1D at a time!

Sorry I don't know where the head came from. Metal head came with heli as I bought a bind and fly 2nd hand off ebay.
