We need a Brotherhood of the traveling drone thread. I'm taking first dips on it..... Actually I'm impatient so I think Amazon here I come!Here's a short clip of the X8 in action. I had to stop working on the main video due to the power outage. It's supposed to be at least another 2-3 hours before it's repaired.
Looks like it's ham, cheese & apple sammiches for dinner tonight.

Yeah, I had it in headless mode since the winds were 15-20. I think my X5SW was faster overall, but if I take the prop guards off and leave the camera off it goes plenty fast. I like that this one has altitude hold, great feature.
You want 7 let me know. I have an MSDN.It's too late to revert back. They only give you a small window after you have updated. I should have left well enough alone!
Now 3/4ths of the city is without power....going on 30 min now. Ugh! Fortunately it's still cool in the house, but it's 91 out today, so that's not going to last long.
First world problems.....I think not! LOL!

Crap...I thought I was flying better with alcohol...Actually the line that said, "You fly, No Alcohol" is actually correct. Not "On Alcohol"
Nope..never drink and drive..I just fly low..lol. seriously..I don't drink n drive..
That's the messed up part, this one cost three times what my X5 cost but it doesn't have FPV, so you have to pull the SD card. I honestly don't know why they put FPV on the X5 since the camera was so crappy. At least this one has a decent camera and altitude hold, so there are some trade offs. The controller was another thing I wasn't a fan of. It looks like they stole it from a 5 y/o's toy box! (But it works really well....I just need to spray paint it black!)
