Dang, :whhooo: looks like something I'd want to stomp on if it moved.

2 packs through it so far. Its a little weird getting used to. its thrown me off a couple times because the tail does follow the helicopter, you have to manually rudder it every time. I've only had one minor crash so far. Its a little twitchy on expert mode, but once you get used to its a lot of fun.
My LHS is building a larger quad-copter and looks pretty awesome. How hard is your little one to fly?

I know that the mQX is fairly easy with the dual rates turned down, but I don't know about the smaller ones like that.

It's not too hard, it's like flying a heli, only a bit different. I was definitely getting it down by the end of the 2nd battery.

The traxxas qr-1. I've seen mixed reviews on it being unstable compared to other nano quads, but I guess that's for beginner beginners. Easy mode is incredibly boring and unresponsive.

Nice, I've been tempted by this, and the Nano CP-X both for indoor winter time flying. I may have to pick one up; so it can sit on a shelf next to the other stuff I never fly.

Thats the problem. I'll probobly park it and never touch it again in a few eeks, but i had to have it. You never know. I've decided that I'm going to give my old almost mint msr to my cousin. Hes been buying 3 channel xheli copters for a while now and has one of those ares coaxials. I figured I'd get him into some real rc heli flying.

The Beginning
I'm flying both 1SQ
and the tiny QR-1.
They are both fun to fly. The Traxxas lives up to its claim of being fast and easy to fly.
Like most of these tiny quads, the blades:
Although quite sturdy will eventually break off or bend out of shape when strikes occurr.
Buy extra blades, even with the spare pack included.
The has 6 axis leveling which make it very stable out of the box.

I put new blades on it the week after I got it, but they're still in mint shape. I simply don't crash it. I don't really fly indoors anymore either. I take it outside and do big banked turns and full tilt speed runs.
