The v911 is only a four channel, hence the 30 degree flybar. It's like putting training wheels on your heli. If you lose control, just let go of the right stick, it'll move a few feet until it levels out and just float there. It will fly, hands free. If you just want to fly a heli for fun, this is it. It's hit trees and tower anchors, fallen twenty feet, hit walls, rolling crashes, etc. It's still alive. My first one only died because it crashed so hard the tail motor fell out and tore out its wires, but every other part was still working. Just glue that tail motor in and you can crash it all you want, if it hits you, the blades will *NOT* break skin.
Maybe i can try buying something bigger next time. Anybody recommend any other online stores? Banggoods RC inventory isn't as comprehensive as a dedicated RC store.
