            Wait, I thought FE boats were my other toys?
            This is my OTHER TOY AT THE MOMENT!
            I just finished a very basic quad-copter. It was a fun filled project, with great help from revoltrunner.DSCN7797.jpg
            First lift off with default setting.
            Too many boats, not enough time...

                Nothing exciting, I realize this is quite lame compared to people who flip and fly drones in ACRO Mode , but I did take this with me on a road trip thru Eastern Idaho and Western Wyoming. I almost come here every year since I used to play in the Grand Teton Music Festival. This is in Alta, Wy.
                My daughter was the video person, she insisted that I walk over to the other side of the field as I had a crash ( very lucky , no damage on the drone, just the battery as it was cut open by either the prop or the lower PDB, immediate salt water treatment) two days earlier not being able to tell how close I was with the trees. Any way, please excuse the jerky movement as we both walked to the "ideal spot".
                In the past I had always brought a boat, but finding a lake ( and there are very many) that is calm enough was a challenge , not to mention the lack of a meaningful retrieval method.



                Anyway, thanks Jeff!

                  If you fly CP helis, acro mode would be easy peasy..... its basically a easy to fly CP heli lol... get a flight simulator and practice flying the CP helis, it will give you the skill set to start flying the quad more aggressively..... I have a DJI S800 evo, and a few other smaller duffers....lots of fun, but still prefer my helis..... probably because of my speed addiction!

                  I also enjoy flying my planks... way to many of them to show pics of but here is a vid from past weekend with a newly built 60" balsa corvus 70e....

                          Thanks Tim, the motorhome needs a generator though for both charging boats and the 'air con'.

                            Easy for you to say!
                            I missed your Blade 350 QX3 deal on the RC forum , my user name there is rcnutrc, they won't give me just rcnut, guess it was taken already, lol....
                            All kidding aside, great flying! Beautiful place you got! I do fly a CP heli but very poorly, on the simulator I can fly OK, but once I am holding the real thing, I get "stage freight" , lol.........
                            I guess I will have a hard time going to ACRO mode , more of a mental block. Time to go to a shrink

                                This is the reason I haven't been on here much this winter... Been drag racing 1/64 slot cars! We are having a blast with these things and have gone a little crazy with it. Our track is a scale 1000' with a full blown NHRA timing system. It's cool as hell! Something to do during the winter months.
