LOVE the carbon fiber blades! they are a nice addition and honestly the only "required" upgrade.. not really.. but I like them

Look at that tail hold in 20mph+ winds! it is awesome!!

:) When you need to pull the battery to charge it can get annoying to have to reset that clock. Maybe just turn it off entirely. :)

this camera was sitting in the abyss of my work table drawers somewhere. found it, charge it up.. The battery doesnt disconnect but just charges through the charge port. cheap-o little camera here. I'll see if I can disable some options

There was a bug in the quick reply where it was resetting topic subscription state. Are you able to set topic subscription on now and have it stay in place?

As for the camera... don't sweat it. :) Just raggin'.

Yeah since you fly so well I thought I'd give you static about the camera date being off. No biggie, just keep flying and video'ing.

Nice one Gaba:) keep them coming:)

I have watched a comparison video between the 130 and 180 and it said power was the main difference between the two, both were very stable:)
