I got my 3DRobotics IRIS a week ago. I've crashed it 3 times already,gone through 4 replacement propellers, and busted my gimbal. None of my incidents were due to a motor failing, I'm just a horrible pilot. Yesterday evening while flying with the kids, we got too high and the wind drifted it down the neighborhood. I switched it into "return to base" mode and it returned itself into an avocado tree.
I guess what I'm saying is: this software looks really cool but I doubt it will solve my current issues :)
- Florin_Andrei 13y agoBuild yourself a foamie and fly that one until you learn RC piloting. Won't help with the avocado tree, but it will surely help with the broken rotors. http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1666155 http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1666155
- cube13 13y agoOr invest in a simulator package, and learn there. It looks like Real Flight has quadcopters.
- sean-duffy 13y agoOr buy a small quadcopter such as the Hubsan X4 for a fraction of the price, and practise with that. :)
- zobzu 13y agobroken motor/prop is actually very rare (unless you have horrible hardware of course) still cool (still very much patent pending, too, so also very uncool)
