Well, yesterday in the afternoon I received my first quad in the mail

I haven't flown it yet and probably not til X-mas. I'm waiting for other stuff to come in. Here's the little guy QX95

Thanks guys

. Wow, big difference from flying a heli

. I tried the FPV goggles on but didn't try flying the quad with them on. I just did a hand flying just to check it out

. I don't know but it's going to take some time to get use to

. Still pretty neat experience

Yeah but I don't think it will be as fun as my helis

Time will tell.

It's not.. for me anyhow.. but a close second.. definitely more fun than planks!

I never try planks but I did stay in a Holiday Inn

FPV is still third on my list. I enjoy flying the planks more. Much more relaxing than helis or FPV for me. Helis are still #1.

We'll see what this upcoming season brings, though. Maybe I'll finally get the hang of fpv quad racing and start enjoying it. So far it has been a struggle, though.

I do have the FPV goggles but Santa is using them til X-mas and then I can use it

I too think I might struggles with goggles on. Will see

I still think that my helis are my first choice of fun. Still #1 for me too

Yeah but Jacob doesn't have the eyes of an 53yrs old fart like my self

I can't wait to try flying with the goggles on maybe then I'll have a better understanding of FPV

I got a few years on you, I tried it and I love it.
More so than LOS for sure.
I was having trouble seeing with my predators, so I went and spent a small fortune on a set of Dom v3s.
Wasn't much better, I wear glasses and they don't fit under normal goggles.
I tried the diopter lenses that I got with the predators but that made things worse so I got an old pair of prescription glasses (poly lenses) and cut some lenses from them with my Dremel. Not perfect but a whole heap better.
There is now somewhere in the states that will make them to your prescription so I am thinking about doing that.
