well... i already owned the original v911, now eyeing on the v911 pro. locally selling RM140+, if i grab the BNF from banggood it will cost only half the price...

why not just buy locally? sweat.gif

better get em' spares... i already broke 2 flybars and my motor seems to had lost power compared to my friend's one after around 15~20 full charges....

and another note, do not play outdoor when there's even a slight wind... nearly lost my V911 few days back when i flew to around 4 storeys height, wind blowing the heli towards an apartment block and as hard as i might, i couldn't get it to fly back to me and ended up losing sight of it once it flew over the apartment block. That was at least a good 70~80m away from me and 4 storeys high. Thank god i managed to find it back, with no damage shocking.gif

couldn't land it by the time i hit 40~m away from me as there are thick, thick bushes between where i was and the apartment block...

so yeah, if you have a v911, buy some spares especially the flybar and also do not fly in windy weather. And when you think you can fly against the wind, you really can't laugh.gif

the V911 is also very good for direction training to upgrade to the V933. After around 10~ flights, I flew back my V933 and i can control it much, much better and at least this time i can hover for pretty long without crashing it laugh.gif
yours is an FPV rig or just normal camera mounted on a quad? sorry, noob in quads laugh.gif

the last vid is a fixed wing plane? I saw a shadow on the ground which shows its a plane... hmm.gif

i ordered 2 sets of replacement parts currently otw to reach me. my first v911 is still holding up quite well. broke 2 pairs of blade n now got no replacement blades to continue flight. the v911-pro definitely flies better out of the box, i know most of the parts are identical with the old version but it just feels more stable!
now waiting for the replacement parts to arrive so that i can fly it ROUGH!
