I'm in Thornhill, just at the top end of Toronto.

Get a long pole with a suction cup and raise a sticker to her window that says " I SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YOU ! ! ! " and stick it on the outside facing in. That'll get her going.

These motors don't somehow have mechanical timing advance built into them, do they?

Hey there neighbor. What part of Ontario are you in?

It saddens e to hear of such a loss. You can get back the funds or the pieces, but you can never get back that time. Was it a Lipo related incident? I'm starting to become very nervous about Lipo's, even ones left unattended with a storage charge on them. I think its time I get a few ammo boxes...

LOL! By the way I have a question... maybe not just for you. And this is not a question to provoke criticism in any way shape or form... its a question about video. Why is it in this video, especially noticeable at the end when the camera/copter is being hand held, that there is so much...

You need to get some CGI in there... make the clouds reflection on the water distort to the beat! Cool vid!!

Interesting stuff. Maybe I should ask then does anyone own one that's somehow failed, fallen apart, glitched or otherwise caused a fiery crash??

You're not the only one who wishes they'd do something about the lenses!!!

LOL. I've got to see a photo of that!

Thanks for the reply. That solves that problem! So here's their claim: "For superior noise immunity the video signal circuitry is optically isolated from the R/C control circuitry. Because the switch has very high video signal bandwidth there is no reduction in video performance or image...

So the time for me to purchase my very first transmitter is upon me. There's plenty of options out there, and the Tunrigy 9X was recommended to my by more than one person. However, there seems to be some doubts about this controller from reading things here and there around the net. The other...
