Generally it's not really windy here, but we do get the occasional stiff breeze. The quad is just too small to take outdoors and the CX2 is too light to fly in any kind of wind, so that leaves me trying to learn to fly them both in my living room. Not a lot of maneuvering room. This is why I wanted something that was very stable. I guess I thought the machine would keep me out of trouble on its own. I've taken the CX2 outside a few times and every time I think it's safe, a wind either sends it into a tree or takes it over a fence (or hedge) and down. If I ever get to live in a house with an enclosed garage, maybe I'll be able to get some good practice in. But I still need to figure out the trim so instead of constantly correcting the flight, I can actually learn to make it go in a specific direction to a specific destination.
