Nice! Did it auto land too?

Karma is coming! Pun intended.

Not really my recommendation but just to name a few:-

If you just want to learn how to control the quadcopter manually and cheap, get syma quadcopter. Don't get the ones with altitude hold or otherwise you won't learn anything.

The quad looks very stable.

No license.

Anyway, whatever you choose to fly, manual or auto(mation), always remember to fly safely and responsibly.

There's "OR" there in the statement. So drone not need to be able to fly beyond line of sight or autonomous. As long as it is unmanned then it is drone.

If many people use rc helis or planes to capture videos & in the process causing issues like multi-rotor rc have, probably we would call them drones too.

I just got myself a MJX Bugs 8. Basic kit without fpv (optional). I just read reviews that the mjx fpv goggle not that good. Can someone recommend me alternative fpv goggle that is compatible with bugs 8 but not expensive? Do I need 3rd party camera too or the mjx ones should be good?

I'll definitely get that. Thanks.

Is it normal for the live view cut off (noise screen) now and then while flying, even with good goggles & good 5.8GHz fpv camera?

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind.

There's a rc reviewer on youtube that got two Bugs 8 that have one sticky motor. It'll come down when the motor stuck. So that yikes! Mine too have one of the motor a bit sticky. Another youtube video by different user show that the problem was the ball bearing that was destroyed. If this is true then it is fixable at low cost but still not fun. There are other affordable brushless quad/drone that don't have this problem, so don't give me "you get what you pay for" excuse.

I don't know whether I should return mine or fixed or even upgrade the motor myself.

I have a heli receiver with built in gyro which I tried to put on my r/c car. It doesn't work out so well. I guess this only work with standalone gyro.

I'm having issue with my bugs 8. For a couple of nights I tried to fly, it only lasted less than a minute before I get low battery warning. Actually the quad loosing altitude before sending low battery warning. For each tries, battery is fully charge. What is going on?

The battery is not bloated. 6 months. I play almost every night recently. Earlier this week, raining two night straight & I unable to play (the battery was recharged). During this time I didn't put it to storage mode.

Today, just a couple hours ago, I tried to fly again after a couple of recharge & discharge, it still only fly less than a minute but when I connect to my rc truck, it can do a couple of laps before it slow down. Right now it is discharged & I'm planning to re-charge again tonight using my balanced charger. I'll update again after another attempt tonight. I don't have extra xt30 plugs to test with another battery to rule out the quad. I have two batteries with deans plug & two batteries with EC2/EC3 plugs.

Is this acceptable for testing the battery? It is wet outside & I don't want get my truck dirty.



The motor is running at max speed for 7 minutes without slowing down. It only started slowing down at around 8 minutes. I'm afraid the controller in the quad might have been faulty.

Thanks for that explanation. I'm going to try with my other batteries. These other batteries, I did put them to storage charge mode before I put them away. I just need to recycle the XT30 plug from the stock battery.

Back in business! Bigger capacity too, 2000mah & 2500mah that I used with syma quad before but capacity may have depleted some because it doesn't last long as it used to.

Well if the "best transmitter" fit the buyer budget (509), why choose anything else.

My favorite too. It has been long time but remember they are like working alone separated from other fighter/pilot fighting Aliens who conquered & devastated the earth. My favorite is when the plane transformed to battledroid; not full robot form. Also they have motorbike that transformed to robot-suit.

Yeah, I actually love Mospeada anime. I tried to remember the title but somehow mixed it up with Macross. lol
