Re: Anyone else excited about the Blade 270 CFX?

So am I! Think that this will be my park flyer, plus having the bailout feature will definitely help get over the fear of playing lawn darts with it! I've barely flown my 500x since the last crash my hands shake way to much to try and keep it in the air, so if the ar7210bx works like it should I might put that one as well on the 500x

Re: Anyone else excited about the Blade 270 CFX?

Jason , you need a day at the field here. It's been a very unproductive year here, Carl vanished again, Don O sold his rappy 30, the guys from Winnipeg have only been down once. My flying season has consisted of mostly flying alone. On a really good note though I've only had one crash all year , yay team Visa was not needed this season!!!
If you get one bring it along, i'll be posting for an end of summer Heli smack down soon.

Re: Anyone else excited about the Blade 270 CFX?

Yeah Jimmy I've just been disappointed in myself the trex 450 is giving me more grief and bought a used 130x and got burned on it, the only thing that has been good so far this year is that I've been flying the nano qx 3d and been able to do figure 8's with it forward and backwards(forward ones are great, backward ones not so well yet) But every time I fly the 500 my fingers shake so bad, even Louis was shocked at how bad they were

Re: Anyone else excited about the Blade 270 CFX?

Went out last night and cut the field and pit area...... got two flights in after I was done, then the bugs got to bad....forgot bug spray!!! I built a new X3 Gaui but then crashed my E5 so I had to buy parts to repair it over buying servo's etc for the X3. The cost ended up at $470.00 to make it like new again. Therefore I've decided to sell the X3 rather then save all winter for the parts to finish it. Theres a nice airframe for your Trex 450 parts!!!!

This Blade 270 looks more like what I want for my back yard anyways. Wait and see on it.

Re: Anyone else excited about the Blade 270 CFX?

well the main thing for me with the 270 is the bailout! And what are you looking for the airframe Jimmy?
