Default Just got another one after selling mine 6 months ago

Found a brand new one on Amazon for $150 , can't believe how much I enjoyed flying this little guy and how much I've missed it . This one and my Nano CPX are the ONLY ones I have re bought after selling them and I'm so glad to have this one back , and sorry WL V977 fans, ( I have one also) The MCPX BL is way more fun to fly and has way more power . I flew it with my 230 S today , my 2 fav Helis now for sure .

Yay! Those are my two current faves as well! Next fave will be Oxy 3 (not 4 or 2!)

Ncpx and mcpx bl are my two favorite micro helis as well. After getting my first mcpx bl, I promptly bought 8 more lol. Now I think it's time to thin the herd a bit as I've settled on 2 that I really like and don't really need that many.

I want to try a xk110 and see if I like it enough to replace my ncpx and mcpx bl. As it sits right now both fly great but I want to try a micro with piro comp.

If you want a micro with some power id go with the xk k120. I have a v977, supposedly same as k110, the mcpx bl, and the k120. V977 flys ok but its weak and tail kicks out a lot (maybe its just mine? Idk.) Mcpx bl is fun, but it is finicky (one board lasted like 5 flights and never flew right since.. stuff like that.) So far (knock on wood) xk k120 has been good. Tail holds pretty well, doesnt shake as much as mcpx, power is similar, i think k120 handles wind better too. Only downfall is you cant use your spektrum tx.

I wish HH did not discontinue the mcpx line. Or the 130x or 300x either. The 130x and 300x are two of my all time favorites. Im actually scared to buy much from HH anymore because they discontinue stuff so quickly.

I have flown my BL more then any other micro and still fly it. I push it harder than any heli I own and crash less with it for some reason, I think its just confidence. Not worried about damage and it just does what I want and has enough power to get out of trouble.
I have several micro I still own but never fly. The BL is not one

I've been looking for this review (nano or mcpx bl against the V977. I've been on the sidelines of the micro machines for a year now after going very deep into modifying the mcpx to double brushless years back. Now that I'm wanting another machine or two, I've been trying to decide whether the V977 was a worthy machine. Chasing vibrations on the double BL mcpx just got in the way of flying too much for me. Looking for something a bit more forgiving.

The MCPX BL is a wasp on crack compared the the 977, BUT the 977 crashes better and parts are cheaper ..

I am just getting back into helis after a bit of a hiatus. I spent more time riding motorcycles and then shooting guns the past few years but now have a kid on the way so I am looking to get back into hobbies I can do at home.

I figured it would be nice to get the micros flying again. I grabbed my mCPx BL from the basement and it looks like I put it away after a good crash last time I flew it. Landing gear is broken and flat. Don't even think I could even rig them enough for a lift off. Canopy is crushed a bit. Hit up the Hobbytown USA yesterday and got skids on order and picked up a new canopy. Will have to see if the batteries I have are still good.

I have a nCPx that I got back from HH service a couple years ago still unopened along with the HH BL conversion for it. Might have to look into getting that flying but doubt any of the batteries survived the extended storage. What batteries are recommended on the factory BL setup?

I have two or three mCPx s also. I don't remember which versions they are. I am sure all the batteries I have are shot too. Any recommendations on what batteries are good these days?

Any help is appreciated.

On the mcpx bl try the pulse 300mah paks more power and a bit more time on the others use the eflite batteries. The pulse batteries are cheaper too, got mine from gonitrohobbies.
