Twister CP V2

[zx6rjey]

got my hands on one the other day, after striping it and then rebuilding it and then setting it backup iv come to the conclusion that "Its an absoulit SCREAM!"

iv only been flying electric helis for about 3 months and i would never advise anyone to get a Twister CP V2 to learn to fly, but once you have grasped the basics and can almost nose in with minor hicups then a TCP V2 is somthing else to try.

Its very light and very nimble, its a touch twitchy but at the same time very responcive and fast, iv just had it flying in the garden with light gusts of wind and although its being blown about its realy easy to corect and keep under control.

im very happy with it and its going to get more use than my Trex 450 whilst im still learning to fly as its alot cheaper to fix when i brake it.

I dont think I will ever use my Twister again.

It is too twitchy for a learner (true beginner) and I think it taught me bad habits.

I wish I had spent the money on 2 or 3 lessons instead.

Hi Guys

I started with a twister but not a cp, i think it was a v2 it did me to start with but a bit of wind and you are out of luck,, well i was anyway,, i started with a black hawk as well which i still have on the side, Michelle x.

yer, not advisable for compleat learners as its quite a hand full, you never know you might fly it at a later date.

it does state on the box that its for intermediate/experianced pilots now i know why. LOL

I have one as well, it is very twitchy but i think it helped me when i moved on to my Raptor because i could quite confidently hover the TCPV2 before i bought the Nitro one.

Hate mine with a vengance.

Went from the Twister to a Swift. It was scary in comparison.

Now I've got a Trex 450 as well. I'm not sure if I had gone straight to the Trex whether I would have got the Swift. Although the Trex is really stable if I do "Dumb Thumb" it then you don't get much time to correct. The Swift, being heavier, gives me much more time to recover from errors.

The Twister seems to have a mind of it's own. I had a boom strike about 3 months ago and I just haven't bothered to fix it. It's no fun to fly at all and the spares are nearly as expensive as the Swift.

My twister was not twitchy, i just killed my from crashing to meny times cos i was still learning with it. Michelle x.

Had two of them over a year- taught me how to fly inverted and loops nicely!!- still got it in a box somewhere in the garage but doubt if I'll use it again as after flying my 600-anything else seems tame,, on a side note,wish I'd kept my Knight 50 Sports as the geezer I sold it to keeps emailing how bleeding good it is.

I found the Twister CP V2 helped me move on .......
