Crashed it yesterday learning to fly inverted. Put it pretty hard. Have to love this thing. Only broke two arms, three blades and the canopy. Took it apart last night and back together fast.
About $35.00 in parts. WOW

unfortunately 1 motor costed me around 60 euro

since it was nowhere to be found in europe
(shops here said it would be at least 1 month wait time , yeah right )
so only option had to resort to encorerc.
27 $ , 23 $ shipping and 10,03 € tax and 12 € administrative costs.

What happened to the motor ?

zomaar · 06-22-2015, 12:55 AM

Bad threadlock
A motorscrew backed out.
Kept on flying and the motor Axl rubbed against the frame

messing up the axl

A tail rebuild with the same threadlock also backout on me. That's how I knew it was bad. (it was a new bottle).

Yeah the INVERTIX does crash pretty good. If you do crash make sure you inspect all 4 props before flying again. I had a crash this weekend broke 1 prop and replaced it. Then took off again to finish out the pack. After about 1 minute I hear a pop and see one of the other props go flying off into the distance. I had to set her down quickly and pretty hard, which broke 2 of the landing skids. And cracked the canopy.

Too bad about the motor. I have to order parts from the U.S. As well.
