Sorry for the hijack, but I'd like to get in on this.

I have a little Blade CX2 and would like to progress. Don't want to spend the earth, but fancy something a bit more interesting.

Whats good? Blade 400?

sorry chaps missed it lol
what u after nitro or batt? if you wanna use ur tx then depends what it is?
hmmmmmm nitro a rator is good heli 30 class or 50 i have both and they fly very similar as for batt theres a new blade coming eflite blade sr cheaper than the 400 and flew nice when i tried the sample they had,its not direct tail drive it does have a sep motor on the tail but was nice value at £199.oo and may take scale bodies.
having said that on the nitro stuff the century hawk flies nice and is a very large 30 class almost the size of the 50 raptor and i may have 1 for sale if your interested its one i built last year .
