Default Trip to quadcopters.co.uk .. Dangerous !!

Well had me some time today ( for a change ) and needed some bits n bats to get andy's 330 finally flying. Quadcopters.co.uk is not to far away from me so I thought id nip up.

Saw some huuugeee quads there, the s800 I think it was and the new tbs discovery pro. After having a quick browse I decided sod it and bought a dji550, landing gear and a naza lite with gps. I chose the naza lite simply as it has gps, reasonable money and is probably more suited to a calmer 550. The kk2 will stay in the 330 ( if i actually get it flying see below ).

Feeling rather good I came home with the intention at least get the 330 finally in the air and a nice project over the next few months to build up a decent spec 550. ( those with kids and plenty of outgoings will understand ha ha ). Dozy git that I am though left my Frsky rx in there workshop though dammmn!! My only free night and now I cant even finish the 330 off.

I suppose I can always build the 550 frame and landing gear set up just to torture me though

One day I may actually get to fly one of the quads ha ha.

Ps on a side note, I sold my mate the v959 and went flying with it yesterday in Rossendale. A slight breeze only took it to the highest tree in the park whereby we cant even see it anymore . we could hear it spinning up but after 2 mins it just stopped.

Anyone with a fpv quad localish care to help us find it lol.

Col.
