What's in the box



He seems to have been in a fight as his face was pushed in. A quick blast with a hair dryer should sort it out.

Better watch out Lee . . . She may get better than you

 

[stokke]

LOL I like it.

Wish the misses good luck

Well ain't that cute...

 

[Lee]

Video uploading now. She did very well. Here was my first attempt this morning. testing it out for when she got back from work. I tried the 4 settings. 20% throws, very docile easy to manoeuvre with no chance of over cooking it. 40% i feel this is easier than 20% as it gives you a little more control. 60% great for more advanced flying and 100% for doing flips, and this thing flips fast......no unbelievable fast.

 

[stokke]

Whoa, that looks hard to fly!
That must be the 100% setting, right?

 

[Tony]

Thankfully it's durable lol. Slammed it into the ground 3 times, almost 4. Looks like it wil be a lot of fun.

 

[Lee]

Hey, you try and do a flip from 2 ft in the air without bouncing of the ground
Here is Celias first ever flight.

 

[llommel]

Lee, you must be a good trainer. Now you have her hooked.

 

[breeze400]

Watch out Lee she will want to get her hand on th QAV and do some fpv next! Lol

 

[Adam]

Ya now that you got her hooked everytime you get a toy now you have to buy two hahahaha

 

[Whirlybird]

She's a natural Lee

 

[Lee]

Thats the idea Sam.
My dad is here for the week from the UK. He has never touched anything RC, except my rc car when i was 15. Whick he smashed into a wall and broke ( I was not happy) Well i gave him a go on the quad. Shows that its a great learning tool. This was his very first attempt.

 

[breeze400]

There you go Lee get the whole familly involved! Lol

 

[Whirlybird]

Lee, aren't these setup for Mode 1 Transmitter?

 

[Lee]

No you can choose which one you want.

 

[callsign4223]

Where did you get this lee?

 

[Lee]

Hi Matt,
I got it from China Wholesale-Cheap Wholesale,Buy Wholesale Products from China Wholesalers | BangGood
Its available from Hobbyking, but they were out of stock. So i thought i'd give these guys a try. It took 12 days to get to me, but the shipping is free. I also bought the tiger 600mah batteries 5 for $12. I get 12mins out of one, so with the original battery, i have well over an hour of flying between charges. looking forward to the wind dropping on sunday to give it a go outside.
If you want to test the Multirotor side of the hobby, this is a great, cheap way to see if you like it.

 

[Whirlybird]

Sounds like it is Lee. Might give one a try

Nice..... That thing does flip fast.. I think I would have done a 1 and 1/2 flip before i could let go of the stick to stop to hover..
