Hello, I bought it during the hot sale event at discounted price $50 recently. And had a chance to fly it outside. While assembly the parts, realized that the arm and body joint is not tighten using the screw. Though tighten the screw, the round arm cylinder was not fixed. I mean the arm cylinder turned around. However, the problem is my 3rd drone crashed to the ground on the 1st flight because the arm cylinder was rotated at max. throttle. The propeller, propeller bracket was broken and the arm cylinder was loosen. I think it has the problem from the design and that's reason sold it at discounted price $50. But, $50 is too expensive to pay for 3 minutes play. Crashed in minutes. On board controller and motors are looking good. but, there is a problem in the joint part btw. the body and arm cylinder. There are a lot of comment complaining that it's easy to be broken and need more repairing fees. Yes, it was correct and earnest comment. I should have heard that comment and didn't choose it. Please do not consider it as option. Strongly not recommended. target=_blank>Jumper 260 Plus Thanks, NamKyu

Got on sale for nearly 1/4 of reg price. Flew one time and had severe oscillation. Motor mount is made from 2mm pcb and is very flimsy. One mount was cracked. Will require a new mount. Haven't tested FPV gear other than on the bench as I'm unable to fly waiting for parts.

Love this quad. There are at least two build vids on it on the u-tube. I had a terrible time trying to get it to sink with my computer. Make sure the tiny dip switches by the usb hook up are correct. See you instruction pamphlet provided. I think it is 1,2 on, 3,4,5,6 off. "Jumper" is an accurate name. I had to tame mine down a bit. P.I.D sitting are as follows for mine, Lux Float, then change Roll to (P)1.8, (I)0.028, (D)35. Pitch to (P) 1.8, (I)0.028, (D)34 Yaw to (P)3.5, (I)0.40, (D)10. I had some trouble with the Yaw, as it seems a bit sluggish. I have flown mine with some rather big batteries , up to a 3 cell 3700mAh. Also, I got mine on sell and bought some extra parts. I suggest the hard plastic Landing gear until you get used to it, as I broke a motor mount.

I purchased this Quad a pair of weeks ago. At the begin, it's frustrating how poor the manual is. just a paper with a fair instruction about how to asemble it. No one hint or link to get the software needed to configure the controller. and the actual version of software does not match the instructions given at the basic 1 page manual. After a pair of days searching on the web, I have found software and drivers needed and I could configure controller. But unfortunately, given parameters don't give stability at all to the Quad. trying to land it softly, as soon as quad touches land, jumps about a meter or so... and then it stay touching and jumping... and if I cut throtle to land, quad touches and flip inverted broking props. I have quit after broke 5 sets of 4 props. Absolutely not good deal. (... and I'm not begginer in RC models, have more than 15 years on this)

JUMPER is a good name for this quad! I had to use "Lux Float" PID controller setting for cleanflight when I installed the after market props. ( I busted a lot of props as this quad will bounce on landing, and flip over. Now I remember to give full left rudder to shut it down as soon as it lands). To get Cleanflight to work, you will have to make sure and set the DIP switch to 1,2 on, 3,4,5,6 OFF, as per the instructions. For some reason I had to restart my computer also, after I installed all drivers. I suggest you install the "hard" landing gear first, until you get used to the Jumper, as the "light" gear does not add support to the motor mount. I have not tried FPV yet, as I am still getting used to it. I bought this on sale along with a bunch of replacement parts. This is my first race Quad, my other is the Quantum Venture. The Jumper has LOADS of power with a 3s Lipo. I have had problems with one fiber tube mount not tightening well, this the 4 crowns. The instructions could have been better. Other wise, so far, I am satisfied.

I started assembling the Jumper 260 and so far (1) of the LED connectors and the video camera connector on the integrated board have broken off. (1) of the LED connectors doesn't seem to be connected on the board as when the board is powered up that leg's LEDs don't light up. When I apply power directly to the leg's LED leads they illuminate. Everything else is working just fine. The quad is slightly on the sensitive side. I'm going to have to tone down the controls.
