This is where you start to learn to fly an RC Helicopter
By B. Fuller
The reason you start here is this is the lowest end programable radio in the line. It will also carry you all the way through the Blade 450D. So for the low price of 160 bucks you have a radio that will start you off and take you all the way to 3D flying. Additionally, with a 10 model memory, you can have quite a few aircraft in your fleet and still have the ability to fly any of them.

The programability is very important as it can completely change the feel of your aircraft to your preferences. If you are flying a Blade helicopter, then all the programing parameters can be found with the helo or online. There are also some ebooks I have found which have good information on what each function does. This is important as the manual is lacking in why or why you would or would not want to do something.

So the place to start learning to fly an RC Helicopter is with this radio and the Phoenix R/C Pro Simulator Version 3.0. Put your hours in practicing maneuvers on the sim. After you've got those down, unplug, your radio (unfortunately, as of right now the Blade mCP X requires collective reversing for DX6i while in the sim it uses normal collective so you will have to change models.), change models to the live model and fly.

For the price this radio has some amazing features. I have paid a lot more for a far less capable radio.

Pilots essential
By Jack Johnson
I use this to fly a blade outdoor helicopter. It is a well designed controller. the variability is endless. Easy to program. I decided on the one with a LCD screen over their other model. Excellent choice. the screen makes it easy to program.

My First RC Transmitter
By R. Wallace
With 10 model memory, it will be a while before I need any other transmitter. Has many of the advanced functions you would expect from a more expensive transmitter. Stick action is nice and smooth. Right now, I'm still flying a Telemaster trainer, but I can see more complicated models in my future and I think this transmitter will do nicely for them as well.
