New Blade mCP X BL (Brushless)

[SaneAdam]

Hehehe,just flew it in an obstacle infested yard at work and I'm blown away by this little heli after just one flight

Its pretty bloody awesome isn't it?!? Immense fun. The climb out rate is ridiculous!!!!

[Nick B]

Didn't do any as there's stables round the back and don't want to upset the nice horsey girls.

But funnels,huricanes,half piros,backward and forward circuits are easy peezy.That was with bullet blades too.

Can't wait for next indoor meet now

I will go as far as saying Gate88 will like this one!

Just unboxed mine, bound but waiting for the battery to charge. It's larger than I thought!

[Nick B]

Bound mine to my old mcpx memory in my tx and flew it twice without realising I only had 80% pitch EPA lol

On 100 it is insane haha

How does it compare flightwise to the 130x Nick . Not neccesarilly build wise we know all about the quirks of that one lol . I trust your judgement and you know your micros as well mate :beer: Rob

[Nick B]

So far Rob,it's just as good....but it wasn't very windy today and i fear the tail will blow if your a bit quick on the collective in the wind.

I did lose orientation and hit the gravel with TH on and now have a hole in the canopy but the boom survived.Boom is thicker than the mcpx.

It flies very well,i will only use it at indoor meetings and windless days.

I nearly walked out of quick today with one. Looks tougher. However, one fundamental factor stopped me in my tracks. NO SPARES. I'm now going to wait till they release them before getting one.

i may be asking a daft question but why would you wait to buy it ?

fly it now and if you are real unlucky and damage it then wait a little less time for the spares to turn up later.

[Nick B]

Real reason is he don't want to look a prat buying one after telling everyone how w*** blade heli's are.......lol

Just do it Graham,if you don't like it you can just put your size 10 on it

[Mike00top]

My New MCPX BL flies a million dollars better than the old one ever did ! i think we may see some of the guys who left blade heli's returning, once they have seen it or flown it,

Yeah. I will once spares are here. I've fallen into that trap before. In the mean time you lot can find any bugs and fixes.

Re: New Blade mCP X BL (Brushless)

Mine had it's maiden today set up dx8 as per book. Not good way to much expo. Flips weren't as good as I had hoped...but ****ed over the v1. I guess atv at 125% next.

I have ordered 12 batteries and parallel charge lead from hobbyking. Any spares you can buy from Germany.

I have only flown 1 battery but I feel this is going to be my favorite toy for a bit.

I'm still torn between keeping my 130x and selling it to get one of these. The MCpx was near indestructible over a bit of grass unless you really went in hard. Minor crash with the 130x yesterday and the TT is knackered I think, and I know it's going to be a pain to get it flying right again now.

Dont sell it, but get the MCPX BL too ! ! ! that will cover all you small area flying needs

Re: New Blade mCP X BL (Brushless)

I only bought mine on the strength of my v1. As a crash test trainer. It is basically the same just more beefed up. The tail does not blow out and you don't need to 1/2 loop to flip. And another big plus you install new battery same as v1/2 without removing cover.



The v1 has had extended tail mod.
