I have been trying to learn how to fly 3 different small quad copters. A WL959 and a CheersonCX10 and CX-30. I am having problems getting any one of them trimmed. I am not new to flying, I have a private pilot licience and I am powered parashute instructor. Makes me kind of crazy, that I can't master one of these $25 quads....... Suggestions please?
Welcome Alan- I have a couple of cyber build buddies who have had similar experience as yours (UH-60 helicopters) and their "toy grade" "trainers" and their early build experiences gave them fits in the beginnings of their learning curves too. I suspect from their sharing those stock transmitters were partly responsible; and the quickness of these little quads relative to their area of operation. These little quads are not that easy to fly without a few "bumps" along the way It takes a while. I am still practicing my piloting skills. It's been ~2 years since I started flying quads. Can you explain this trim challenge? Good Luck- Jay
I think you picked out some of the wrong models! The 959 is older tech and not very stable. The nano's I don't suggest for anyone....or at least not for anyone getting started. The CX-30 has a strange controller, etc. I think you will do much better with some of the models suggested here: https://www.droneflyers.com/2014/11/best-quadcopters-for-2014-holiday-gift-giving/
