e-E-Flite Blade CP CX 400-3D > For every1 getting ready to upgrade from CX to CP =)

I have thought about that turbo, I have seen people on here that have installed the B/H upgrade and commented on how much more touchy it is with that installed. They have also commented that while its more responsive, its also smoother.

I have taken all that into consideration and this is why I was looking for a good sim to practice on. I figure If I can get a few hours in a week (hopefully more) then I should be in good shape by the time the BCPP comes out.

The other thing is something 400 touched on, I just can't bring myself to buy a CP knowing that the CPP will be coming out in a month with $100 of upgrades installed already! I know I will crash, everybody does...But with practice on Clearview hopefully all I'll have to replace is the blades.

Oops, I saw someone mentioned that in your other post. But I don't know how to do that. For most TXs have a training port, you can connect that training port to the computer...Since I dont have my CP yet I can't answer that, but there isn't a training port on the TX for my Blade CX.

Well milehighwings.com sells the USB adapter to decode the signals from the back of the BCP/HB CP2 TX trainer plug. It's $45.

helidirect.com sells a E-Sky TX with USB or serial RS232 (COM1) connector (not clear, text says RS232, pic shows USB) for $30. You won't find a $10 cable for the CCPM Blade/Bee TX has they have mixing onboard... The sim needs unmixed inputs (why the first cable is $45).

I'd go helidirect, same TX, no AA's (or AC adapter) needed, same TX feel, good price/service/shipping. Probably find something else you need.

If you had a Walkera 6CH TX it's trivial to build a cable to the parallel port with a couple diodes and use PPJOY. It's what I use until my $10 GWS serial cable comes for my Hitec Optic 6.

I'm flying inverted in Clearview on my Honeybee CP2 model. Will try to get a vid on here.

Wow 400, that cool....here is the link

milehighwings BCP Serial Cable
milehighwings BCP USB Cable

They have the serial listed at $25 but it looks like all their serial cables are sold out! They do have the $45 USB Cable though.
I deffinatly will be picking one of these up once I get my BCPP since I will want to practice some of my acrobatics before doing them in RL!
