We had some great fun in the office until it caught the carpet loops one-too-many times and ripped the skids off.
But based on that experience I went and bought my son a Blade CX2 for Christmas, and that's the BEST decision I ever made!
We'd almost given up on flight after numerous foamie mishaps, but the CX2 flew straight out of the box and practically hasn't landed since!
(Well OK, it's stopped once, but that was to install the CF tail mod and the motor heatsink!)
(And then again to replace a lower rotor and a skid  )
And I have that little $30 piece of crud to thank! |
That's what got me. Last year I see one of those airhogs at the store and I thought, that's a gimick, it's to small that can't work. But it did!! Now I have a lama v3, walkera 5#8, 53#1 and a 22e........hook, line and sinker.
