My garage is half that size. Maybe with the Nano....

 

nah mines about half that size... I was lucky to hover it and not hit the wall...

 

The one good thing about my Nano CPx is that it's small enough that I can hover around in a garage or average sized room and not hit walls..... unless I get stick-happy and get to banking around too much. More than once I found it skids in parallel to a wall close enough that if I had thought to hit negative collective, I might have almost been able to stick sideways on the wall. (Hmmmm...... I may have to try that one day! I'll call it "fly on the wall") Other times, it just bounces off the wall, usually with no damage. I know 3D indoors with a Nano is possible, but I'm not quite there yet.

 

Can you read? I've been flying Nano indoors..... Bonehead.

 

.....by the way, your disguises are not very convincing.

 

While I wait for a 450 to arrive... or not....
I'm still working the silly little Nano CPx. I had to upgrade to bigger wire from the battery to BL ESC. I've had to reinforce the tail boom receiver on the back of the frame and add aluminum tube to keep from breaking tail booms. I think I've replaced almost all original parts except for main shaft, bearings, rotor hub and servos. I'm trying not to put anymore money into the silly thing aside from what's absolutely necessary to keep it flying. It still serves a purpose, especially on days like today with a 40 to 80Kph wind that mandates indoor flying. I'm so ready to go to a bigger bird!

 

Ah, but I do fly everything..... that I have. Three birds to choose from, but none as big and with so many more moving parts as the wayward 450. I would have thought you would be anxious for me to have it already, the sooner you would have the opportunity to try and snatch it out of the air from me. You really do contradict yourself sometimes @Crash Heligod. I think you have jelousy issues. Did you crash your toy helicopter as a child and not quite get over the trauma of the experience? You may also have possibly had an older sister that made you play "dress-up" a few too many times from the sounds of things.

 

The truth shall set you free! Forgive your father for he knew not what he did. His selfishness was no fault of yours. Forgiveness it the way to eternal freedom. Let go your hate so that you may walk into the light and be free to fly forever. The Heligod Imortals will be there to greet you, and (after a momentary flogging for some of your past misdeeds) guide you to The Great Flying Field In The Sky and present you with your very own heli that you can fly to infinity and beyond..... no battery charging or refueling required! All you have to do is let go your hate and animosity and you will find peace and harmony, and the door to eternal freedom will be at your finger.........bones. Heed these words @Crash Heligod and you shall be forever free!

 

You have to listen to me now, @Crash Heligod ...... I friended you on Facebook.

 

??????? WHAT????? - friended him on Facebook - are you nuts - you should be looking for the un-friend button my friend
Simon

 

They say "keep your friends close...... keep your enemys even closer", right?

 

I just realized his disguise, he's sneaking in to a redneck fly-in
Simon

 

Sometimes I suspect he's stalking me, but then again, it could be one of his cousins. It's hard to tell sometimes..... they all look alike.

 

The transition to inverted flight is becoming easier every day now that I found a method that works for me in the form of elevator loops and rolls. I can't stop now!! First chance I get good weather I'll be torturing the Nano. Apparently Heli-X has no video export function, I had to capture with my phone.

 

Nice @Beaver, just don't ever have it flying over your head, you don't want to practice bad habits on the sim
Simon

 

Remember this @Beaver... when the heli is upright tail of the heicopter follows the elevator stick - (push the stick up and the head points down). When the heli is inverted the head of the heli follows the elevator stick...
