It's exactly like I said.While it holds together in the air it flies pretty good.If it was mechanically sound it would make a very good first collective heli.I bought one last Nov. and realized within a couple of weeks that it was going to be an exercise in futility so I put together Dragonus and don't regret that.If you look at the thread at the beginners forum here and the thread over at RCG there are 9000 posts on the Falcon3D.
The plain and simple fact is you get what you pay for.$300 is just not going to get you much in this hobby.At least not in reliability.
