Well, I bought a drone... LaTrax Alias

Nothing fancy! Got some batteries charging and then we will see how it flies! We have had a couple crappy Target drones that are done for when one little part breaks. I wanted something with replaceable everything.

I was really expecting a "I crashed my new drone today!" thread as a follow up to this one!!!

Replaceable parts are important!!!

Mrs Certified tells me I'm replaceable all the time!!!

I have a few microdrones. I might step it up. Curious to see how this goes! Good luck!!!

Oh the learning curve is steep! I crashed it plenty. I didn't realize it was it "fast" mode and sent it up way too fast, lost control, and watched it smash into the side of a cedar tree about 50 ft up. It bounced off a few branches on the way down. I can definitely say it's durable at this point.

I had a nano/pocket thing I played with years ago. Just trying to do circles in the living room was crazy . Steep learning curve? Yes, indeed.
