    OMG nooooooo! Lol

    The drones are easy af, it's the copters that are fun to fly because they are superr difficult and twitchy. This is why drones are better for smooth camera shots through the bedroom window of you getting dressed in the morning! lol learn to read or else I'll pretend you're John and shit on you relentlessly!

    Yeah, the blades/rotors are super easy to break on stuff. They spin 'round at least half as fast as an angle grinder! woooooh

    Ya they're pretty sweet. I might pick one up in the store if I go buy a second charger, or I'll just order one off Amazon

    Thats the the one I was thinking of. Might hit it up on Sunday. I've got 4 LiPo batteries and they take like 2 1/2 hours to charge each, I need a 2nd charger, badly. And maybe a second drone for the house to get better with lol

    How big is yours? I'm just using the shitty charger that came with the drone. But I was doing a lot of reading and you don't want to charge LiPo's fast as they have a tendency to burst in to flames. I got a fireproof bag for them as well. Are you sure your's is a LiPo? I feel like the cars don't use LiPo, they use another type, but maybe I'm wrong

    Ahh so they are LiPo, cool. Ya mine don't have that and I don't want exploding shit in my house so I'll keep it slow. Definitely going to buy a nice-ish charger though, one that can also de-charge to proper storage levels as well.

    Be careful with your futuristic batteries, nerds! Don't want telecomm going down and the crab people to move in again.

    If I quoted you over there it keeps the thread on the top of the main page, which could bring in other people who might try to swoop in under you and buy the can.
