Blade mQX Quad-Copter

My local hobby shop got these in last week and I took a look at one last Saturday... now I want one

For the $140 price tag, it might be doable! But then I'll need a transmitter to go with it

so excited! I think I'll be ordering one of these Friday

probably going to start with this MQX and use it as a "learning" quad, since it's relatively cheap to fix when (not if) I break something. then once I feel I've mastered it, I'll start to put together a much larger quad

already have the transmitter!

wow, EVERYBODY is out of stock on these things! backordered until the end of this month (granted that's only a week away)

can't even find any on eBay, which is really strange

Well, 3 months later, I own one of these things, and all I can say is that it's everything that I expected it to be, actually more! This crazy little thing is a BLAST to fly! I've had it for a week now, have already gotten really good at pulling off loops and flips with it, and have already managed to break a motor mount But one of the best things about this little guy is that parts are CHEAP! The motor mount cost me $3; I bought 3

Took it out to the local RC track today and flew around some. Got like 3 people there also wanting one now, lol. Came home as it was raining and proceeded to kill the batteries in the house, and shot a short video. Nothing special, just hovering around, but it shows you just how incredibly stable these little things are.
