Virtually identical size i would imagine.

[Gaui-Deanoo]

and the 130x swings 130mm blades,, soo its only gone be about a 10~20mm difference id assume

We were told today that the 130 X is due for release at the end of May / Beginning of June. I wish it was sooner!!!!!!

The question is to go for one straight away, or wait till batch 2 or 3!
When the blade grip bearings are sorted & bugs found.

Hi,Its funny(or sad)! that lots of peeps on various forums are concerned about the price!,,one thing that would keep prices down,for spares as well as heli`s,,is people not buying upgrade frames for £40!! I everyone would just show some restraint,the prices would drop until sales were made,I know its hard,I suffer from the "want" as much as anyone else,,but if we could all hold back we would all benefit in the long run!!
Same with everything I suppose,the guys with the cash jump in and keep the prices high for everyone else!
Mind you,I am a tight Scottish git!!

I'm sure I'll end up owning one of these...

I'm sure my brushless mcpx will still have a place as king of durability and thus stupid flying, but I can't say no to a heli this tiny with direct drive tail and everything!!!

I'm quite a way off mastering the mcpx but this is already looking like my perfect next heli. At £159 I would say it's priced just right in comparison to the mcpx's £125.

pre ordered mine today from Midland.

[matt35]

wish you hadn't posted that cos now i want to do the same

[Zeeflyboy]

I'm never pre-ordering a horizon release again lol... They pump out new stuff I want all the time and yet dates for shipping always seem to slip. By the time they do ship they've already announced something else that demands my money.

I predict they will sell a metric $@£% ton of these though.

I give it approximately 5.5 seconds after the first one arrives before people are ripping it apart and putting bigger motors in it etc. I assume microheli and rakon will give it the same treatment that the mCP X got too.... I must admit I would love to see a microheli type carbon sandwich style frame a la their mCP X offering.

The one thing I find disappointing - they are still using that bloody side-on swash guide that causes elevator/aileron interaction. Shame that it already has something that needs fixing - it hasn't even released yet!

I received my 130 X today and flew it in the garden. It is a frisky little blighter and I crashed once but it didn't break.
