The Blade mQx (BNF) arrived about a week ago. The extra battery and (real) charger I ordered arrived on Wednesday. The DX9 arrived yesterday. Got everything charged up, did the BIND, and started out to the front yard early this morning.
Flew for about 1-hour 40-minutes total today and I must have crashed 30-40 times. Tree'd it three times -- so badly I had to assemble various implements to get it down. One extraction took half an hour. Put it on my roof once, but was able to fly it off. Bounced it off the neighbor's roof once. Knocked the body off three times and knocked battery out of it once. It didn't occur to me that I needed to adjust the input speed of the controls until late in the day.
This was a lot of fun, but I don't know how much abuse this Quad can take! Just finished up the last session and I can takeoff, hover, and land it on furniture pretty well. Almost did the circle track from the kitchen, to dining room, down the hall, and back to the kitchen again...almost. I gotta figure out how to slow the inputs down more than I have. I put -45% Expo and 60% D/R on switch H...I think. But, I can't tell too much difference. Gonna try 40% in the morning.
Any suggestions appreciated!
