V100D03BL Micro CP
I'm sure you've seen the release of the new Walkera V100D03BL. This heli has a lot of people really anxious. I really like that it is all brushless. I'll have one in my hands in a few days and see what this bad boy can do. I want too see what it is capable of doing completely stock first, before any upgrades are done. I'll keep you posted once I get it and I'll shoot a video of it right away.

I am pretty sure that most people will side with the bigger 120's other than the DO3 though. Honestly, I think it's better to go with either a V120DO5 (more affordable and easy tail replacement) or M120DO1 (super premium micro; probably the best they have to offer in this class). The price difference is negligible given the size and overall quality differe
