  • looking to move onto a collective pitch from the msrx

    Im looking to purchase a larger heli but would also like to get a small collective pitch heli would I be best going for the mxpx v2 , mcpc bl or the 130 x. Will mcpx's fly outside ok ?

    130-X is the one. Very similar to a 450 flybarred. Not easy to fly, but easier to turn with the tail than the msr-x. Survives fairly well. You do need the orange silicone bits on the swash from RC-Hero.

      130x all day long.

      I have both the MCPX-BL and the 130x and the 130x flies like a larger heli.

      It is also awesomely confidence inspiring.

      Both the mcpx bl and the 130x are good helis.

        I hated my mcpx BL sent it back! Still loving my 130X, mcpx is best for indoor work or a really gentle day, smoke rising in a straight line lol

            I have a Nano CPX and a 130x. Nano for inside and 130x for outside.
            The 130x is great and I highly recommend it.

                They remove more slop from the head compared to the stock O rings. Not strictly necessary, but certainly improve it if you're doing stick-banging stuff.

                  Depends what you mean by "small". The smallest is the nano-CPX, but it really is indoor only unless you have a day with zero wind.
                  The mcpx v2 is OK in mild breezes and can be flown inside if you have space, but the mcpx/BL is SOOOOOOOO much better.
                  The 130X is pretty much outdoor only, or indoors for sports-halls. Certainly too big for a living room.

                  Depends what you're after therefore!
