Wow cool colors! Nice scale flight!

Pretty cool!

There are several Chinese companies selling various versions of this exact model. The best one is sold by Eachine, as it comes with a downward-looking sensor/camera that helps it hold lateral position over the ground. The others cover up the hole where the camera would normally be with a "quality control" sticker to hide the hole.

That’s the one I have is there a way to somewhat easily put a optical flow sensor in?

[@jimsmalleimb7709]

@@FishingFosterr : No.

[@titan133760]

They're basically made by the same production company, then they sell it to various other distributor companies, who just slap their brand name on them

Was the onboard camera included?

[@rclabbotics5413]

No but it was cheap enough on its own just a bog standard 5.8ghz micro camera and tx I think it was about £25

[@FishingFosterr]

@@rclabbotics5413how do you install it and does it just plug into the reciver and can you watch it mid flight?

[@rclabbotics5413]

@@FishingFosterr no it's a stand alone for camera powered by a 1s battery both battery and camera where just attached to the tail using an elastic band and a counter weight (a small battery) was attached to the front so the COG was still balanced

Awesome thumbnail pic, of a nice looking piece of crap.

[@jimsmalleimb7709]

Why is it a piece of crap?

[@rclabbotics5413]

I'm really enjoying it it's hover isn't as stable as it could be but tweaking the stiffness of the blades and the wallow goes away what don't you particularly like about it ?

[@rclabbotics5413]

Wow just took the sticker of and your are right 😮 think these are copies or just rehashed and re badged ?

[@andrewczski1969]

Could be. Same cheesy 1D gyro. How much you pay? Hopefully not more than $20 per main blade.@@rclabbotics5413

[@andrewczski1969]

Too small plus no real control. Of course with collective pitch helis, the price and complexity goes insane. I have a 450, 2 500s, and a 700.@@rclabbotics5413
