Better ask from mymegastation instead of fxx. I stop buying from them already for a reason.

ESky Lama V3 can find spare part easily ...... I also recommend this although I do not have one before. It was RM159.90 from mymega but as I know now it should be back order.

Not just 1.5k ... the price range for 6 Channel CCPM heli is very wide ..... if you kena poison be prepared to shrink your wallet unless your wallet is super big lah

I am one of the small wallet victim ......

Added on October 1, 2010, 8:13 pmDepends .... cheapo 450 size around RM500 and it is Ready To Fly (RTF). But recommend to upgrade charger and buy more battery. Standard 6 cell charger around RM200 and 3S 2200maH battery around RM80 each.
So at least RM780 already. Once you crashed the heli you will need to replace parts ..... so expect at least 1K to spend first ....... but definitely not enough ....

So far I have spent a few k in few months hehehehheheheh to me that amount is a lot already
This one still not crashing into airplane. Bro Qiw i think more than 5 digits, true ar?

Oh toooooo bad, tried some sim with plane and now I can't fly well with heli in sim already. So worry tomorrow I will crash my real heli again.

Yes, you are right. I am in PG island. Lonely flyer .........


Is that normal if I do pitch bump a few rounds then my tail cannot hold? There is no problem when I just bump once, but if keep bumping by pushing the throttle up and down, then at the end my tail will drift a lot. Might be my finger problem but if it is not is that possible?

Qiw, have you sold your king2?

Hehehe, I am considering to sell my Belt CP V2 to get fund for my next heli .... since you've sold your king2, I think I should have no problem to sell it with reasonable price .....

Yeap, forgot to say.

If anyone of you interested with my BCPV2, especially first into 6ch CCPM heli, message me and we can talk about the deal .... I have a lot of spare parts and suitable to those who want to learn ......

Hope to get a few hundreds if possible but definitely not much I can expect. I have some upgrades included gyro, tail servo and main blade. Plus tons of spare parts and extra batteries so maybe 700 the max?

Din go out and see how people fly plane last weekend, hehehehhe usually weekend not much time ... can only fly heli in the morning for 1 hour or 2 ....

V3 should be Belt CPX with some redesign in the head. May not be so soon that you will find in Malaysia, I think .....
At the moment the range of a new BCPV2 start from 500 to 650 if we get from LHS, so I guess the price I am asking maybe reasonable with free shipping within Peninsular ... hehehehhe
But dun know lah, hard to say one ......

Hehehe, I also pity that fellow who bought your 450Pro
Belt CP is not comparable to those Trex clone or Trex and you can definitely see it from the price. New BCP with RTF is around RM600 but I don't think you can get this done with Trex clone or Trex lah, just the low end Futaba 6EX almost cost you that already.

As Qiw said, not everyone rich like you mah, for those who want to enjoy this hobby and with limited budget, BCP could be the solution. It may be hard to learn from the beginning, but can be overcame by learning in simulator.

BCP is still flyable and I have read some good comment from the oversea flyer, it is not that crab honestly. I remember someone from MRC argued with me that with proper setup BCP can do TIC-TOC!!! Anyhow I don't really agree but sport flying is not a problem at all. That's would be a great milestone for a newbie to learn up, by just paying that much of money. Of course if you want to fly hardcore 3D, forget about BCP and this is not for a newbie as well.

And then ask your fren for me, I can pay RM50 to buy their heli so at least they still can get something back in cash don't throw away, so wasted.

What kind of hardcore 3D you can do with your super BCP? hehehhe, interested to know .....

Added on October 5, 2010, 12:39 pmAiyo, like that all LHS should stop selling BCP already .......

This post has been edited by daddoo: Oct 5 2010, 12:39 PM

Totally agree and that was what I thought so I decided to get a BCP first to test water and I do believe there are still a lot of them who think like you and me.

But once I stepped in, then only I realize: shit, this hobby is very poisonous ....

Kekekeke, I am so scare to touch rc airplane because I am worry I will kena second time again.

No need to explain, I understand one, you eat maggi mee too much

Added on October 5, 2010, 3:14 pmYes, do let us know your budget.

If you only think you want to spend a few hundreds to get Tx/Rx, Battery, Charger and Heli then BCP or Trex clone would be your solution. Trex clone around RM400 for Heli only based on what I know from Qiw & Slapshock.
BCP around RM600 including all.

If you have more than that, go for better quality one .... neither BCP nor Trex clone I would say.

This post has been edited by daddoo: Oct 5 2010, 03:16 PM

I think so, it does not include battery, charger and remote control so usually you need to buy separately. Maybe there is Trex clone RTF but I am not aware of at the moment. I am also a small little flyer

Tx/Rx is the remote control and it is make up of a transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx).

Maybe you should start with a coaxial rc heli as they have indicated, then only move to 6ch CCPM. That would be super tough without any experience in this hobby. Those with coaxial experience also hard to fly CCPM heli in the beginning, just like me ...... I am very slow

IMO you don't need to buy first if you just want to learn. You may try to buy LAMA first then get your Tx from the package, and use that Tx to learn CP heli in a simulator, that make more sense to me.

Most of us actually fly the heli in a simulator first before we really try the new move with the real heli. CP heli is fast and you have to build up your reflex with the 6ch CP heli or else you might end up with crashes. Usually a crash with 6ch CP heli need to replace feathering shaft, main shaft, blade, gear, flybar or tail boom. That would cost around RM100 for a 450 size. I am taking the BCP as a reference.

There are a lot of simulators out there like RealFlight, Phoenix, Reflex XTR and so on.
Usually you just need to connect your Tx to the PC and learn your orientation, new tricks from there. You may need to find a suitable sim cable to connect this up.
I have a Walkera Tx and originally come with a sim cable. I have another Tx when I bought my BCP but too bad I have to get the sim cable separately.


Hey, what's the setting in RF to make your background looks so realistic? I may want to try it to check if my graphic card's capability, the existing background i am using is too fake ......

This post has been edited by daddoo: Oct 6 2010, 01:18 PM

If you get a LAMA from Esky I think the cable is included so you don't need to worry about that. There are several ways to get the sim, Mr. Slapshock suggested one but aaaahhhheeeemmmmm, do at your own risk

BCP RTF does not include sim cable. Same goes to those Futaba, Spektrum Tx which you have to get the cable separately ......

If your 3.5ch is using Infra red I think you cannot play it outdoor, hehehehhe the ambient light will interfere your Rx .......

I experienced this once before, the heli can spool up and once i fly it slightly higher than my head, the whole heli stop spinning and drop down immediately, because infra red not working when I point my Tx upward.

How much can you get the BCP in Nilai? Hehehe, want to consider mine?
I can include training gear, sim cable, original box and some others ......

This post has been edited by daddoo: Oct 7 2010, 03:08 PM

Ohhhh second hand as well ... how much is that?

I don't want to be biased but you should find out more from others. Since I got some good comment and I also got the bad one.

But every time when BCP is mentioned in the forum there would be a lot of argument one. Just consider people's opinion properly and make your own decision. You have to always trade off with money and quality.

When I was a noob I have even flown an even harder to learn CP heli, 4G6. It is much more unstable than the BCP. But still I can fly F8 as of today.

Sorry ah, brothers brothers out there dun be feeling offended......

Hehehehe, then the point still going back to budget and the readiness to go into this hobby
Other good quality heli also can catch fire in the mid-air, I have seen branded 600 heli explode in the mid air too .... but it is very rare. The ESC of BCP is famous with catching fire but so far the V2 one is rare also.

Not everyone can easily fork out a few hundreds mah ..... But I do agree with you lah, if you have more budget, dun take BCP as your choice. Anyhow, make your own decision ...... we can only provide our experience best to you .....
