Hi guys
Finally flying my QJ8 again, goofin off after work in the video.
Just getting a feel for her, punching hard in FF , flare hard at the end, and fly back to me.
Really loving the blade noise compared to the Trex lol.
Watch the video, I think I did quite well considering the amount of flights Ive had on it.
Not many! lol

Ive only recently started doing nose in with the Rex, and full circuits.
So to have the QJ spin 180 back at me with its nose way down....hmmm.
I cant say the first thing that comes to mind, errrr poopy pants?? lol
You get the idea.
Just thought Id post, as 1: Im pleased with my save and wanted to share, 2: there isnt very much video on the net showing a QJ.
Cheers

The esc is the culprit!!
Not long after this vid, same night, the heli lost power and dropped 5 feet.
No damage to the heli.
The esc being ready to give up on me would be a likely reason to just start glitching, as it never had before.
I supsect the capacitors are burnt out, as there is no sign of anything wrong with the actual esc, but I cant get any arming beeps out of it anymore, but I can still go in and programme it, so its getting signal.
Got a 75a ACE esc to pick up this weekend.
Ordering a DX7 next week too. Sick of worrying lol.
Cheers
