Ideafly Grasshopper F210 Race Quad - Pro Pilot Review

Flies more like a hornet than a grasshopper. My first impression of the Grasshopper F210 was a little comical. The bright yellow canopy and bug like appearance made me not take it seriously. Until I unboxed it and saw the motors and escs on this quad. It is no joke that this quad is made to rip. 2205 motors and 30 amp escs are what pro pilots are using to win races this year. Ideafly has obviously researching the fpv community and responded with something fun, but also a quad that flies smooth and fast like a bat outta hell. A very nice bundle with a carrying case and 4S battery. Just add 4 AA batteries in the radio and start ripping. Oh yeah. remove that canopy. It looks fun but it flaps up if there is any wind
from behind the quad. More review details below...

- The video transmitter button is hard to find. It's a button on the right side. You can feel it with your finger.
CONS:
That canopy flips up vertical in flight lol! - Take it off, or velcro it down before you fly it.
Star rating: 4.5 out of 5.
-5 star for the canopy flapping up in flight. remove that canopy before you fly this one and have a blast!
