XK X252 Shuttle, Review & WICKED 3D Flying

X252 is a 3D trainer or can be a subtle beginner quad. - Review and 3D flying test of the XK X252 Shuttle. The X252 is a 7 Channel, Brushless quadcopter capable of FPV and 3D inverted aerobatics. See the video for a switch explanation of how to fly it in IDLE / 3D Mode. This quad is ahead of the curve. More 3D quads are coming out in the coming year. Racer quads are also starting to embrace 3D flying. Start practicing now guys...
