BUY ONE!!!
By Ray Stark
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2O2TM2U61QTDV An amazing piece of technology!

A friend bought me one for Christmas and I have been having a blast with this thing! I am 54 years old and have always had a dream of flying a toy helicopter around my living room. This thing is easy to fly, robust, and totally engrossing. I ended up ordering the tandem as well and have flown it all over the house. As a commercial pilot with 26,000+ hours in "real" airplanes, flying this thing in my living room adds another dimension to my aviation experience. Make no mistake: This is no toy. It is a remotely piloted air vehicle that is every bit as much of an aircraft as a 737 is. Truly amazing!!!

Fun, probably not necessary if you have mcx
By Aekero
So, I ordered this a while back because I had an mcx and msr, and I wanted an inbetween for inside the house.

This has fast forward flight, a super-stable hover, and the little l.e.d.s they added are a nice touch. It's definitely something a beginner can fly, even younger children with a little supervision to start.

I compared the parts/frame of the mcx2 to the mcx and they look pretty much identical, the servo arms have a little "C" in the middle of them, I think that might give them a little more durability, other than that I couldn't really see anything else. (mcx2 5in1 has led plug) That being said the mcx2 feels like it's maintained it's hover "integrity", if you will, through more crashes. Have yet to really smash this, but I've bounced it off a few walls and whatnot, and nothing has broken.

I have noticed the flybar can pop off at impact, I'm not sure if this was done on purpose since the attached flybar would occasionally bust on the original mcx.

The mcx2 is a little faster in forward flight than the mcx1 if you switch the servos to the longer balls on the swashplate, also there's an optional (sold seperately) tail with weight sold for the mcx2 that can replace the current tail that makes it a little more maneuverable.

Other than that, it looks a little sharper than the mcx1, it's got a little white on the blades, the canopy is a little nicer (and clear), it's got the flashing l.e.d.s for flying in the dark. It comes with the same 1 pack charger as my mcx1 came with, with a slight update, this one has the option to hook it up with a wall charger (sold seperately) vs the mcx1's single cell charger was battery-only.

Overall, great first heli, lots of fun to fly, anyone can fly it, if you don't have an mcx1 yet, definitely get this one instead! If you've got an mcx1... eh, it's fun but not really worth the upgrade cost. (if you have an mcx1 just get a cusker mod and it'll pretty much fly like the mcx2)

mCX2 Heli
By R/C RON
The blade mCX2 helicopter is very light, well-made and very attractive to look at especially with the flashing lights.

The instructions in the manual are clear and get you flying quickly. It is fun to fly and flys very well. Great for flying indoors in limited space.

Also, the charger provided works very well.
