To get you quickly up to speed, and to prevent easily preventable errors.
Some well-structured reading for rainy/windy days, including
e-flight_101 & 102, and some handy e-tools.
Will save you, and us
a
lot of questions. Notably the
'what went wrong?' kind of questions
Will also prevent you from burning up several controllers and/or motors and/or battery:
E-flight primer and tools
And pleasepleaseplease, do your RC equipment, wallet, ego, battery, controller, motor, house/garage/car a big favour ...
get a watt-meter.
It will more than pay for itself, will save you at least one fried motor and one fried controller. Will also help you finding the best setup and help you troubleshooting. A must have.
Prettig weekend
