Hello from Perth, Western Australia.
I'm relatively new to the RC world and completely new to Quads.
I dipped my toes into the world of RC about 5 years ago with some Buggies, Boats, Planes and Heli's.
Then I got busy and well,life happens and I didnt get to play with any of it until about November last year when I finally got the time and interest again.
I starting pulling some of my stuff out of the shed only to realize what I had was now so hopelessly out of date it wasnt funny.
And now we have Quads! All the advantages of being able to fly without the constant forward movement without the time to think and co-ordinate your reactions. Get confused, just stop! The quad stops in mid air (I realize that's only if its in the correct mode with GPS and Altimeter) so the first quad I purchased had that. My 90 size nitro heli from the past was supposed to at least self level and stay pointing in the same direction, but it never did and wound up costing me a lot of money in repairs. In the end I was too scared to fly it.
I'm tech savvy but a little overwhelmed by the complexity and modern terminology atm.
I know I'll get my head around it all, its just time and experience. Advice from others goes a long way as well.
