Okay gang - kind of a noob here! I taught myself how to fly this thing in about a month. I dumped some cash on upgrades and a few broken parts but there’s one thing that I cannot emphasize more. Use caution when flying indoors!!!

I just upgraded to an 11.1v Li-Po. I had a 9.4 but with the carbon fiber symmetrical blades, after 5 minutes of flight, there wasn’t enough juice to keep the thing in the air. Well, after installing the new battery, I had 4 successful hovers of about 1 minute each. I decided to put the thing away because it scares the poop out of my dog.

Anyway, I landed and went to disconnect the battery. When I set the transmitter down, the 3D switch flipped (switch on the right). The blade took off totally out of control and started flying around the room. The only way for me to keep it from hitting a $3000 high def TV was to bat it down like a bug.

All is well now. My TV was okay, however, my carbon fiber blades are now toast.

Just a warning to all!!!

I’m going to disable the switch so this doesn’t happen again.
