The CP V2 includes competition-class woven carbon fibre main blades as standard equipment! Plus a brand new rotor head incorporating Bell/Hiller mixing for faster roll and pitch response is included! Two latest generation high performance Li-poly battery packs are included too! Finally, the V2 is equipped with the latest cell balancing and charge protection equipped fast charger and Li-po's!
Instructional DVD and eight transmitter batteries will set you up with the finest, most highly specified newcomer and sport helicopter made to date!
The helicopter is designed by expert engineers and entirealy assembled at the factory. It is utterly complete (except for a 12V charging source), very strong and equipped with numerous innovative safety features. Here's what you get:
  • Factory-assembled, RC installed COMPLETELY ready-to-fly
  • Every model test-flown and set up by expert pilots
  • Carbon fibre main blades for strength, precision and durability
  • CCPM collective pitch system for the ultimate in control
  • Two 1000mAh Li-poly batteries and 12V DC charger - with cell balancing charge protection circuitry
  • Astonishing 15 minutes flying time per charge!
  • One-piece '4 in 1' on-board computerised electronics unit saves weight, improves performance and simplifies use
  • Transmitter with 3D/Idle up switch AND buddy box training switch

Beginner or expert - The Twister CP V2 is designed for newcomers through to expert pilots. Beginners will find that controlling a collective pitch CCPM helicopter is markedly easier than a fixed pitch helicopter - despite the more complex control sytem. The new carbon main blades impart a significant increase in precision and overall handling. Experienced pilots will enjoy the spectacular aerobatic and circuit performance of a model that handles as well outdoors as at does indoors.
The Twister CP V2 employs the highest quality CCPM (cyclic and collective pitch mixing) control systems and engineering. Collective pitch provides much easier height control than fixed pitch and although more complex mechanically, makes flying easier and more stable. Even outdoor circuit flight and aerobatics (or 3D flight) is easily achievable using the Twister CP V2.
Materials and technology - Careful and appropriate use of carbon fibre has been made throughout to improve strength and save weight, whilst many precision miniature ball bearings support the important components. The '4-in-1' on-board electronics package includes 6 channel receiver, piezo gyro, electronic mixers and speed controllers PLUS a computer fail-safe, an LED system check, and a motor safe-start facility. The fail-safe cuts power to the main motor in the event of transmitter failure, whilst the safe-start only allows starting when the throttle stick is low­–so there is no danger of connecting the flight battery and inadvertently sending power instantly to the motors.
High quality 35Mhz FM transmitter- The CCPM transmitter has been designed specifically for flying the CP and features high quality, adjustable stick units, convertible between Mode II (throttle left) and Mode I (throttle right). The transmitter incorporates a 'buddy box' trainer socket, a charging socket, a flight trainer switch and a 3D/Idle up flight switch. Both transmitter trims and stick units operate at a professional level of quality – a vitally important feature for successful helicopter control.
Buddy training sytem - If you're a newcomer to RC model helicopters, the buddy trainer lead (not supplied, part no 7711300 SRP £3.99) allows you to connect or 'buddy' to another transmitter operated by an experienced pilot. In this way, the instructor can release his trainer switch to gain control over your helicopter should you get into difficulties.

The Twister CP V2 is ready to fly and requires only a suitable 12V DC charging source. It is designed for use indoors or outdoors in an adequate and safe space. The Twister CP V2 performs magnificently outdoors and has a sparkling climb rate and great aerobatic performance. Straight line stability in fast forward flight is excellent and is on a par with professional model helicopters many times its size!
We believe you will be as amazed as us at the outstanding flyability of this unique helicopter package when you lift off into a rock-steady hover and then power out across the field for screaming down-wind passes and huge climbs!
