My parts arrived this morning.

I've changed the arm and replace the broken standoff.

The weather report for tomorrow is looking good light to no wind and dry all day, it's supposed to be a bit cold though.

Everything is charged up and ready to go, I'm hoping to get the tail tuning finished off tomorrow.

I forgot to mention that I've flashed no naze with 1.8 release candidate firm ware to have a look at a feature that's been added that would have prevented my last crash. So we will see how it goes in the morning.

Good news Dan, 1.8 FW, it was 1.6 when I had it on mine. Sounds like some upgrades there then

it feels as if the roll and pitch i's are a tad on the high side (lttle bit of a jitter in FF) ive adjusted the profiles with slightly lower i's and hope to test in the morning.

Looking smooth Dan, maybe up the roll/pitch rate or RC rate for faster flips and rolls.

i'll try that Stambo. I think it's at 0.65 at the moment, I want to try and sort the tail and roll out and then I'll probably up the rate's a bit.

Nice flight Dan, you have come a long way in a short time.
After adding music to my last vid, I think I too prefer to hear just the raw motors/props.
I think the only audio I will edit from now on will be to turn it down a bit.

Have you flown a helicopter lately? :D
I don't think I have touched mine since I have had a mini. :)
