| Cheers for that Keith but I'm struggling to find the board on the bay. Done a bit more setting up and flies a lot better now | |

| But the gear in red is not needed for Justin as he's.a flyer where's that setup is more for photograph useage so in this case cheaper board with just added acc is what's required here | |

| Its Justin's quad and you wish it was yours though lol. you can have the full cheep kit all you need is the radio for £99 off eBay I could do you a wicked deal on my one but it would be more expensive because I have the wii board and hacker motors and very good speed controllers Id want at least £160 for my one bud ,but you would have fun bulding it | |

Once the baro/mag and some of the other tweaks all work in harmony these type of boards will be unbeatable for the money it is just waiting for the code to be perfected , that may be today or it might not be for 12 months or it might never happen, if the programmers do switch to 32 bit chips the chances are it wont happen only time will tell.................. | |

| Is this one sorted now justin? you did mention you refined the controls. All being well mine should be ready to fly at the weekend If your about your welcome to test it out to compare flight systems. I've seen rons kk boards in flight and they do come close to the wii system, a comparison side by side so to speak would be interesting to see. | |

| All sorted Keith, in the dome away from wind it flies very well and I am comfortable with fast circuits, its not a replacement for a plane or even a heli but something different and additional to fly. | |
