E-Flite Blade CX3 MD 520N


E-Flite has released a brand new Helicopter: the Blade CX3 coaxial helicopter has new features and is sporting a very exciting new look.  A follow-up in the footsteps of the CX and CX2 helis, this one is even easier for first-time beginners to fly and has lots of scale details with its new Police MD 520N body.

Overview

The flight experts have done it again. The Blade® CX3 MD 520N® RTF gives pilots unbelievable micro-heli excitement. The CX3 includes a radio system equipped with Spektrum™ 2.4GHz DSM2™ technology in the LP5DSM transmitter and Spektrum AR6100e receiver, providing 5-channel control with interference-free flying. It’s covered in the licensed MD 520N scale body with an attractive police trim scheme.

Just like its predecessor, the Blade CX3 offers first-time heli pilots exceptional stability and incredible control through the coaxial, counter-rotating head design and 3-in-1 control unit. In addition, this CX3 also features two feather-light S60 Super Sub-Micro servos that provide full cyclic movement of forward, backward and side-to-side maneuverability. The Blade CX3 also includes a heading lock gyro to provide better control and locked-in performance. As with other co-axial Blade helicopters, no flying experience is required to begin your heli flight with the Blade CX3. This indoor helicopter is 100% factory-assembled, test flown and ready to fly out of the box, no assembly or setup required—and nothing left to buy. The Blade CX3 is the first coaxial heli to incorporate a heading lock gyro, a Spektrum DSM2 2.4GHz radio system and a scale body all in one convenient ready-to-fly package.
