Default AeroAce won't go out on a nice day..

Hi All.

Just got my AA after reading all the buzz. This one tested out fine in the house..had to wait till today for calm weather. I tested trim and range ..etc indoors in the mean time and all looked great. Today I stepped outside to take the maiden flight and the the plane has no response to the TX outside. I come back indoors.....all is fine. I get complete control indoors with antema down and 60 feet away indoors.

I discovered that the second the plane sees the sun....it shuts down. And the second I put it in the shade....it comes back to life. FREEEEKY

Any ideas?

Thanks,
toader32

WOW Thats odd. I would return it for another. I have been flying mine for some time now and it flys very very well outdoors even in a slight breaze.

There's something weird with mine too. It doesn't seem to has enough power to lift, juswt pick up the nose and flips top the right and the trimming seems to be OK.

You need to remember these are sold as toys in toy stores. Just bring it back to exchange for another. You'll get a good one. I dont know how long they last, mines had many crashs nose first into the ground and it keeps on flying. I need to buy another in case they stop makeing them.
