Eskimo, I don't know if they are or not. You might want to check with an RC store or BBS and ask. Off hand my guess is 20 year old radios, they aren't legal but I could very easily be wrong.

The problem with old radios is there range is too short...they are only good for a foodball field or so...they are AM radios.

Mav I have 2 cx2s and one cx....I modifyed them.......they are way fast and alot of fun to buzz around the house!!! Don't take them outside unless there is no wind what so ever!! I put lights on my CX with a spotlight in front.........I fly at night ...its a hoot!!!

68slayr....there were no collisons but there were a few close calls.......One guy crashed because he felt like he was loosing control and it was headed for the crowd......so he nose dived it in the ground



Dedalos...herte is a link to the extreme motors for the blade cx2...there is a pretty big difference!!
