Realizing that cost is one of the main factors in keeping newcomers from trying out RC hobby, we decided to create a new series on Props & Wheels: "BUDGET RC". In these episodes, we will share with you the great deals we find: either used or NOS (new old stock) RC aircraft, vehicles and equipment.
This episode features a fantastic, high-quality RC deal (we call it a "steal") from a name brand: a Blade mCX2 from Horizon Hobby. Brand new, these helicopters sell for around $100. I found this deal listed on eBay for $33 shipped to my door. So, for one third of its original price, I got myself this micro, 4-channel, beginner-friendly RC helicopter.
Sadly enough, this Blade model had been discontinued at the posting of this video. However, used ones as well as spare parts are still available.
Here is the link to the 2010 introduction video for this RC helicopter posted by Horizon Hobby:

Please stay tuned for future episodes of "BUDGET RC", where we will provide you with more great examples of how to get into RC hobby (or grow your RC fleet) on a small budget. Please like, subscribe, and hit that notification bell. Hope to see you on the next video. Cheers!
