The other issue this copter has is the battery is only 800mAh. By the time you get it hovering, you've lost enough juice to need more throttle. I'm thinking about buying a different battery for it, but it would only be used in this model and that doesn't justify the cost. Everything else I fly uses a 3 cell lipo, the 2 cell that this things needs wouldn't work with my other planes/copters.
