In my opinion YES it is a far stretch. I went from the Airhogs to a Mcx and could not be happier.

I went from the MCX to the little blue one, the blue one discontinued now, from there I went to the Msr x, and now the 120 sr. However i like the smaller helis.

But going from the Airhogs to the MCX is a great idea in my opinion, I have two of the MCX's I have a local Hobby store that stocks all parts for Eflite helis.

So far (knock on wood) i have only broken one piece on all my helis and that was on a MCX (wifes cat jumped up and grabbed it from air lol)

Anyway thats how i started out, and do not regret any part of it. Have all helis i have ever bought including the Airhogs and the little Venoms sometimes they are a blast to drag out and fly around the living room

Good luck in whatever you buy!
