Hi,
I have had the Eflite Blade mCX for about a week now, and have been very impressed with it. It is very small (20 mm long, with the blades being about 18mm) and light (about 24 grams). I have had a Vortex, and have flown the CX2, and this is worlds better. It flew great right out of the box with no trim adjustment. Likewise the tail is rock-solid, although it twitches now and then. This is certainly no 3d heli like the Walkera posted earlier. It has steady but slow forward flight, and reverse flight is about twice as fast. What is fun about this micro heli is that is absolutely relaxing to fly. It goes where you want it to, with no muss or no fuss.
The battery charge lasts about 7 minutes. I was doing pirouettes right out of the box, something that I would never have attempted with other coaxials without a lot of tweaking. It is about 100 US if you want to bind it to your DSM TX. I have crashed this thing countless times, and there is not a mark on it--still on the original blades. The motors don't seem to get too hot. I have the glow in the dark blades ready to put on, but have not needed them. It is an absolutely amazing little heli to putter around the house or office. For those of you with real heli skills, you would probably find it a little boring, but if you just want something to fly for fun and are tired of the toy helicopters that aren't very controllable, this is just the ticket.
I got mind from Oz because the dealer I had hoped to buy from here isn't a distributor. For those of you who want to wait, I have been told that Jet Hobby will be handling them, but have not confirmed this with them. For those of you who want a little heli to putter around with without the mechanical issues that seem to plague other small helicopters, this one might be for you.
