Thanks I think I will go ahead and get one. Thumbs Up 

100'...? Check this out.
 I was over two hundred feet above the beach when mine got hit (interference) and decided to death spiral all the way to the beach. All ok, not a scratch. I still don't know how it survived. Luckily I was not in FPV and was just testing a new Aiptek mod I made last week. The quality was lost on the youtube upload but the original copy looks pure 1080 on a tv.
if you have any compression or you tube conversion tips, I would be stoked to hear them.

Check out my FPV flight from last week...


How does the Twinstar compare to the Easy?
I was thinking about moving over, but with the flap mod I have been pretty happy with the Cheesy Star.
The Twinstar is like driving a luxury vehicle. Plenty of power and it rides smooth, but not real nimble. The EasyStar is sleek and glides forever, but the dual motors help the Twinstar hold steady. The Twinstar is more work but I wouldn’t trade it for anything, it’s part of my normal fleet. I am thinking about getting another Easy Star though…

I miss my old one. (it dove 100 ft. to the ground… full speed impact due to a cheap radio receiver.)Dead

yeah I saw that firmware upgrade. I'm anxious to try it but a bit hesitant. Once you firmware you cant revert back.

If you remove the H2O proof case it is not that heavy. The case weighs as much as the camera. For me its the shape that almost kills it. With the simple USB mod it becomes a formidable FPV companion that is near hard to beat for picture quality. I Love it!
