A great video of a clever rig. I'll just keep trying to fly my HBFP without crashing and dream of a quad. It looks like it is forgiving and I sure need that.
I'm so happy to see you with one of these. You being someone who has come all the way from the start, to the now it's really great that you are enjoying this. I'm so happy you made a video with this and I really want to pick one up. Thanks for all the great videos and all the hard work you do.
Love your videos Dave... I just don't know if the quadcopter would hold my interest. We flew indoors last year with a couple guys with the Parrot drones... They were cool for about 20 minutes. Is like to try one of these little beasts. I've got 2 blade 450's, blade 400,blade SR(deceased), mcp x, blade Sr120... So I'm a fan of blade... Gonna have to see this one up close.
Nice nightflyyer. I get mine in on Thursday. I cant wait. I also have just finish my big quadcopter. I have a couple of vids on it. Quadcopter are my new best friend. They are so much fun to fly. If you want to fly harder. Put it in x mode. U get twice the thrust. If you know what I mean. Cheers and happy flying buddy.
Hey Mr. Herbert, that was a great video! ive been waiting for someone to review this. but the only thing with quadracopters is that keeping yourself oriented is rlly hard, in my opinion, especially with tiny tings like these. But great flying overall!
@NightFlyyer You are right on..You can already buy the brains to these things on Ebay for like 30 dollars from China and then it's just how big of motors and ESC's you want to run, so size will be limited to funds.. There are even frame kit's coming out that look to be in the 2'-3' range... I am amazed how stable but mobile they are and they can apparently carry a big payload... WOW yep another RC thing for me to spend money on, I LOVE THIS HOBBY it never gets boring...
@jboweruk Thanks very kindly. Yep, Horizon just changed the RC industry again. Now, there will be a flood of these from other manufactureres, I will bet.
Dave would love to see some footage from the air with this little bird if you have a camera small enough for it to carry. great vid Im really excited about this little flying machine keep em coming
Yeah! that thing is awesome! I'm also always in the mood to fly, unfortunately the wind isn't always so cooperative nor appreciative, lol. Thanks for the video Mr. Herbert. You keep posting them and I'll keep watching them.
Looks like it flys good outside. Maybe you can put the camera on it next time. I may have to get one, looks like your haveing to much fun with it. Has Jeff flown it yet ? Tom
@beech18s The camera is already on it. LOL Stay tuned. Jeff is working up in North Dakota, and doesn't even know I have one. I know he will like to fly it when he returns tho. Thanks for the comments, Tom.
@WildBobsRC Great. Thank you. I am flying the + configuration too. I agree, the x configuration is a bit more easy, but does better "flop loops." . LOL.. Glad your enjoying yours.
@KumquatWraps Thanks. Your right. I already use them in my Horizon micro T-28 with lights. It is a good all around battery and I get a good 9 minutes of flight before I land the Quad-Copter still with plenty of power. Simply amazing!
I do this with my pole cat I really want ne of these
