Default RE: Made my first flight! [Firebird Freedom]

yeah I almost learned the hard way myself, barely got off the ground, decided the wind was too strong (probably not even 5mph) cut throttle and landed

When there's no wind it flies pretty damn well, but if there's even the slightest breeze the FF is a real pain in the ass, I couldn't even get it to turn into the wind today and almost had a crash having to turn the opposite direction to come back around, and winds were calm!

if there's one huge complain I have, it would be that, it's almost impossible to fly in the wind.


good luck with your next flight, no matter how depressed you may have been, you'll thoroughly enjoy your FF when you have a wind-free day!
