    I've heard that tri-copters are the most fun for racing and general frolicking. Also David Windelstål from flite test / Rc Explorer has a great diy kit with awesome instructions - check out some of his beautiful videos! https://www.youtube.com/user/dadde87

    thanks @Piilukirves!

    How do you like your cc3d?
    It looks very nice to me and the people behind it seem to always be making it better.

    CC3D is Super simple and easy to setup and fly. Still there is huge amount of settings to tweak as u get better.

    I have not gotten into quadcopters, though my eldest son is. However, I think it would be awesome to see a Star Wars forest based race with a bunch character themed copters like this one:

    I can see the Star Wars quadcopter race through the forest of Endor now!

    Has anyone done podracer style quadcopters?
