Bought as my first Multi-Rotor helicopter it was destined to be a FPV plateform but sadly never made it that far and didn't last very long at all to be honest. This wasn't because of bad quality parts or my flying skills but more the fact I didn't read the specs 100% for most of the items I ordered. i.e I ordered the wrong propeller mounts so they would randomly slipping off the motor shafts in flight, my soldering skills were somewhat rusty when adding the 3 gyro's to the KK contoller and finally I didn't tie rap my tail servo wires so rubbed through and caused it to fail in flight from about 100 metres high. Damage.....Pretty much EVERYTHING!
The KK Controller was a little bit more complicated as it involved removing the gyro sensors from Hobbykings HK401B Gyros and resoldering them into Jakubs controller and then the rest of the components. Once built it was a case of checking they were working in the right drection and messing about with the gain pods - Couldn't fault it at all.
