Started with s107 in dec then flew cheap 4C then blade mcx to slow moved to v911 fly 4 of them is this heli to much for me?

If you flew the V911 you should be able to work on mSRX. It's a good heli, it doesn't have flybar and won't autocorrect or return to horizontal position itself unless you tell her to do it. Is a bit faster than V911 and the last step before collective pitch helicopters, in fact it feels very close to one. Reading your history of other Helis, I believe that you want to progress on this hobby, so: buy the mSRX (BNF no TX), 2 or 3 lipos, and buy a good radio TX ie DX6i, because this heli with stock TX is difficult to control. With a programmable TX you can tame it down properly, and it will serve you when you decide to step on bigger stuff. DX6i holds 10 aircraft in memory. Anyway....buy it.

it takes a while to learn to fly. it moves very fast. it is much harder to fly than mcx2. have patience

Should be similar to the v911, a little better though - flybarless is definitely better than flybarred. I say go for it, especially now the price is low! Just take your time learning it. I also recommend getting a Spektrum DX6i transmitter if you don't already. It's a great first "real" transmitter and works out of the box with all the Blade helicopters. You'll fly better than with the plastic included one, and it'll be all you need all the way up to large helis.

Think you'll be fine. I only really had experience with cheap 30$ birds and a lot of call of duty helicopter flying, I you have a big room you'll be fine, hardest par is learning to launch it, get it off the ground quick with some immediate right bank and after that it flys pretty smooth, parts are cheap and it's easy to fix

I flew a s107 for a short time then moved up to the msrx ,there is a small learning curve,if you have patience it shouldn't be a problem. I have now moved on to the blade mcp x

I would imagine this might be the older version. It was out back in 2012 so I'm sure by now they have come up with something newer. If I'm not mistaken I think I read something about a newer one. But I'm not sure. I just know this one has been out for some time. That being said, if you do not have one of these, it's a pretty good Heli to fly. As some of the reviews have said, it's not for a beginner but still not too difficult to fly for someone who has a little flying time under their belt and I am assuming by the question asked, you have some experience flying these. I have a lot of fun with it. I have six helicopters. Most of them are indoor size but I do have 2 that are outdoor copters. This is one of them.

I don't know why but for $10, does it really matter? Don't over analyze it. Unless you are a top notch pilot, I highly recommend the guards. You could, I guess, plan on getting plenty of propellers, which may or may not be an DJI oem product....???

No... i'm currently researching a similar conversion (transmitter/receiver upgrade may be the only way if the system supports it which i haven't verified) . The Heli ships with a 27Mhz frequency, a very low and weak frequency...

Yes it can be flown indoors and that is what I'd recommend at first so you don't have to deal with wind. Even slight breezes are annoying at first. Like a coaxial? Not exactly. The MSR is a step up from a coaxial in complexity but also in fun. The price you pay is in stability. If you just want to have fun, a quad is your best choice after moving up from a coaxial. If you want to learn to fly a RC helicopter, then the MSR is a good step in the right direction. I wanted to learn to fly a collective pitch heli so I worked my way up from a coax, then the MSR, MSRx, then MCPx. Each are more difficult to fly, but more rewarding and are progressions to flying collective pitch. I got my first quad after flying the MCPx for a while and it's a blast. I still fly the MCPx though depending on what type of entertainment I'm looking for that day. If you want indoor/outdoor fun with the stability of a coax, and you are looking at the Blade line of helis, I would recommend the Nano QX.

I agree w/ another comment about Throttle Curve; make sure you have the radio's parameters dialed in with the 300X. Also sometimes after I experience radio/ electronic anomalies I re- bind my DX6i w/ the heli just to make sure that link is secure ~ you also can look on YouTube & possibly see a vid with an experience similar/ ballparky/ or even identical to yours

This was a Mode 2. It is really "twitchy" when flying. I personally like the Blade 300X much better being a tad larger and the ability to set it up as a beginner, if needed. mCpx V2 are just two hard to fly unless you are an absolute EXPERT. Choice is yours, but me I would not buy another one. Hope this clarifies a few things.

If you are now good at flying a 4ch fixed pitch heli without any mishaps, then yes this would be my recommendation. I started on a trex 450 but wished I started on the 500 because it is more stable.

I'll put it this way. I already own one. I'm purchasing another just because of the kick ass price. crashed it 100x and never broke anything. just remember to power down in case of imminent doom and u should break anything. of course the surface you are "landing" on has alot to do with its durability and mostly i fly over grass. also if you look at the parts, they are all seperate and easy to replace and pretty damn cheap. I had to send mine to helimax right out of the box. the T.A.G.S. was malfunctioning and the transmitter wouldn't always go all the way down on the throttle (bad pot?). anyways they sent me a ups label and had it back to me in no time. I complained that it was my first helimax product and i was disappointed because the heli and the transmitter both were defective but they insisted it was a fluke and upgraded my swash to compensate me for my lost time. that was enough to get my business over and over. They did not question if i had crashed the chopper or not. they took my word for it.

No. It is rtf. I also have a V911 and you can use either transmitter to fly either Heli.

Yes. However if you do not have experience with RC helicopters this is not really a "first time" choice since the main rotor moves in all directions so it's not easy to control. Easier models only have forward and back with the main rotor, and you rotate the direction the heli is pointed in and then go forward or back. You should gain some experience with those first. With this one if you move too quickly with any right or left on it will easily flip and crash and it's also harder to trim. That said if you are already familiar with flying these things, it's a nice model and I"ve crashed mine a bunch of times with no damage. Yes.

I do believe a coaxial heli would be a great choice to start with , it's a 4 blade configuration with gyros to keep it extremely stable and much easier to control, just make sure it's an outdoor version .. Hope this helps

It will be a challenge. If you think you are a good 4 ch flyer and can step up to CP no problem, you are in for a treat. It is tough, and it feels like you are learning all over.That said, this is a good flying heli. And it is hard to find a less expensive rtf 450 size. The flybarless system and 6 channel makes it fairly stable.First thing to do if you get this one is turn down the elev/ail EXT pot on the receiver. There is no stick banging allowed like you can with a 4 ch.

The msrx is much quicker than the 120sr... definitely will entertain you and improve your reflexes. You could also consider a nano cpx, which is similarly quick and has the added benefits of a collective heli. I have a 120sr bnf, msrx rtf, and nano cpx bnf. I'm still practicing good coordinated turns, no inverted stuff yet, but I like the way the nano flys the best.

No. This is a collective pitch helicopter. The most advanced and the hardest to fly and quite intimidating to a new pilot. 130x is on sale for 140 bucks. It's also a cp heli but much smaller and cheaper to fix and less intimidating but even this little one is more powerful than any fixed pitch I ever flew. If you're serious about the hobby, either one are great little helis but You will get better faster on the little 130 for the very reasons I mentioned above.

Yes, the Syma S107 is a great helicopter. Strictly indoors, but can't beat it for durability, stability, and ease of use. I absolutely recommend this heli as an entry level copter, then upgrading to a 3.5 channel, than the 4 channel fixed pitch such as this product your currently looking at.

You're exactly right. The MODE 2 for this radio IS NOT conventional. Glad you got it sorted out. Nice flying heli & easy to repair even for beginners.
