    Li-Po chargers and USB ports

    Now hold on a sec.. lol my questions don't fall under those ... I was asking if it was safe to use a USB batt charger in a USB 3.0 slot instead of a 2.0. And 2nd was my own fault both times.. I hadn't discovered that both the throttle itself and the throttle speed variation button will...

    Li-Po chargers and USB ports

    I don't.. and I fixed my latter issue... So it's a nonissue... The battery slides into a canopy type thing on the underside of the quad... My PC case has 2 USB 2.0 and 2 USB 3.0 slots.. I wanted to make sure the charger could be used in either type... As I stated the only difference is...

    Li-Po chargers and USB ports

    Does it matter what type of USB port is used? Like obviously 2.0 is ok.. but what about a USB 3.0? Does it make any difference? There's no difference in interface like size or shape or anything.. USB 3.0 is just faster when it comes to data transfer... But I wouldn't think it could hurt or...

    Dromida Ominus first impressions

    Hahaha.. I actually took that into account when purchasing... But it seems to be a pretty legit little machine... And flys amazingly smooth.. doesn't hurt my feelings if it could be fixed up a bit with some different parts... I'm actually looking for a bigger MaH battery that will fit... Though...

    Dromida Ominus first impressions

    I look forward to it.... I've heard it compared to the LaTrax Alias.. a couple times actually.. and I've seen some criticism from those who think the only good quad is the phantom 2.. and anything that's less than $400 is trash.... But I thoroughly enjoy the way it flies... Even in a decent...

    deciding on my first outdoor quad

    The Dromida Ominous' parents company is Revell... And it is a 280mm... I'm gunna pick one up and check it out.. apparently comparable to the Traxxis latrax.. but somehow better.. without real world experience of the LaTrax.. it's hard to say.. I'm going by what the hobby shop guys said...

    Anyone have any input on the Dromida Ominus? Guy at my LHS swears by it.. but it's apparently so new.. not many people have em yet... I think this will be the one I buy... Especially after flying it

    deciding on my first outdoor quad

    What about the microgear brand? They've got one that is fairly good size.. looks pretty durable... Jeeez this is almost as bad as selecting computer components
