My Posts This: Topic Forum | Ok, after a few days of hovering my hummingbird v4, I finally started flying it around with ease. After three bateries of good flying I decided I would take it up one more time. Then it happened as it passed in front of me I saw the red light come on. I realized the battery was going dead. I turned him around & started bring it down. Then it went full power & banked right hard....inverting it. All I could do was cut the motor & watch him fall. Amazingly enough all that broke was the head stiffner & a landing gear strut. Once I get the parts it will be flying again. Does anybody have any recomendations for a battery meter? Something that can be seen easily. I was kind of heartbroken about the crash, but it was expected. I knew coming into this hobby I was going to crash sometime. Altogether though, it was a great learning experience.
