Default RE: Recommendations for Micro Electric Helicopter

The Feda, like the Hummingbird and Piccolo models I would have recommended, is not a good choice if outdoor is going to be your primary flight venue.
There are things you can change/upgrade that will make these small fixed pitch micros handle better in mild wind (cut blades for higher head speed, add bigger batteries for more weight for higher head speed, head stiffeners) but they are not really outdoor models. They get blown around a lot by mild wind.
You may be looking for something bigger.
