  • McpX v2 VS Nano?

    Hi Guy's,
    i have a Phoenix Sim and a Dx6i,i have gone from Coax to Honeybee,now want to get my first CP.
    Just can't decide between the two above,so many conflicting views! Some say the Nano is best for the beginner,some say McpX is best.I want a Heli that's good for outside and in the house,but will probably be flying outside 'mainly'.
    Also,people always said they had to do many Mods to the V1 to get it flying well,tail boom ect.
    Is this the case with the new V2? If so,i wouldn't bother and go straight for the Nano. Because as a beginner to CP Heli's, i would prefer to learn to fly them first without the need to'Mod' anything,but enjoy that later,when/if necessary.

    Any info much appreciated.
    Cheers Guy's.

    I have both - I prefer the Nano as it flips better.
    For a beginner, I would say the mcpx is better as it is more stable. The Nano can get away from you very quickly, however it does crash better.

      I wouldn't recommend the nano for a beginner, it's far too twitchy and lively. As Obi-wan says, it does 3D stuff better than the mcpx, but that probably tells you all you need to know about what level pilot it's aimed at ...

        Get a Nano or mcp x then your want 130x then a 450 so answer is if indoors then clear all furniture & go for Nano or mcp x, for a bit of in or outdoor mcpx for outdoors 130x or 450
        Today's outlook is fine for flying.

          Cheers for the replies Fella's.
          The McpX v2 does sound like the one for me then,but,will it be ok straight out the box? or will it need Mods like the Mcpx V1 to ensure stability?
          Cheers.

            The V2 is essentially no different from the V1 except it comes pre-modded in effect. When you get to flying inverted, it benefits from an extended tail boom, but otherwise, it's perfect.

                McpX v2 VS Nano?

                It pays to get a solid extended tail boom as the hollow ones will split,

                Just fly as is till you break it then upgrade

                  Hi I have both a Nano and Mcpx, the Mcpx was first and never managed to get it inverted, after buying a Nano which I found a lot easier to fly, and get inverted the Mcpx was then easy. So now I do like the Mcpx better !
