lol That's for the Air Hog Reflex. The MCX is on my DX7. The Hughs 500 Ultra Micro is my brothers.It is HARD to control. The Reflex is almost as hard. The MCX is the easiest thing I have ever tried.

well lets see here.... i don't really know for sure, i've had my MCX since x-mas and there still going strong. but i do have an extra pair on standby just in case. no, i've never had to change the 5-1 (fingers crossed) probably the most expensive part on these @ 50~60 bucks if i remember right. but back to the motors, the motors will outlast the lipo's. at least that was the case w/mine

Cool.Good to know. Just how long did the lil lipo last?
That battery is just too cute ;D 110mAh.Smaller than a AAA.

the original lipo, still going strong, but i bought 2 more like 2 months ago and they seem to be fading on me allready. i'm not sure what the deal is with those. volts read good on the muti meter. so i might ditch them and get a couple of the 130mAh one's

Looks good.You changed the frame too huh. They have all that stuff here at my LHS. I may do it later. My brother is like,do it.You can fly in the dark if you can see it. My question is this....
I can see the heli in the dark room but what about the $2000 TV that I can't see in the dark?lol.
