EFLH2000 Blade CX3

EFL2000 Blade CX3 MD520 RTF Helicopter

Based on the full size McDonnell Douglas MD520N helicopter E-flite’s Blade CX3 MD520N Police interceptor helicopter comes as a complete ready to fly package with everything needed included in a simple one-box-purchase.

This fantastic semi-scale helicopter features the very latest in radio technology with everything pre-installed. E-flite’s unique 3-in-1 control unit features a combination of main rotor mixing, main motor electronic speed control and a heading-lock gyro, all coupled to a Spektrum AR6100e receiver and all enclosed in a beautiful lightweight pre-painted polycarbonate scale body shell with the unique rotor- less tail.

Control is provided by the included E-flite fully proportional 5-channel radio featuring Spektrum’s 2.4 GHz DSM2 technology for a really positive “locked-in feel” whilst power is provided by an E-flite 7.4volt 800Mah 2 cell Li-Po battery pack. Complete with a 12 volt DC balancing Li-Po charger for on field charging and a mains adaptor so that you have the convenience of charging the battery at home, four AA batteries
are also included for the transmitter so you can be flying this great helicopter in the time it takes to charge the flight battery pack.

With absolutely no assembly required and nothing extra to buy, what more could you want from a model helicopter, the Blade CX3 MD520N has it all!

Control		Why two rotors?

The three in one control unit provides both main motor mixing, control and incorporates a heading lock gyro. All three functions can be fine tuned to attain optimum stability and performance. Access is through one of the front windows of the MD 520N scale body so fine tuning can be done easily without having to remove any parts to gain access. The receiver is a Spektrum 6100e unit and provides a rock steady, responsive RF link.		The Blade CX3’s coaxial, counter-rotating blades cancel out the rotational torque that makes hovering a conventional heli so difficult for first-time pilots. They also make rudder turns much easier by simply slowing one blade or the other without sacrificing any of the inherent stability. This truly is a heli just about anyone can fly, right out of the box.
