Make sure that you have identified the turning directions of motors before fixing because, we cannot connect any propeller to any motor. Screwing directions are fixed.

You can't beat this for the money.
I've been on RC aircraft for many years, but this is my first quad. Great value, went together in an hour or so and setup was maybe another 20 minutes. Then in the air.
Only problem I had was the legs don't take any side stress. I guess the first time I calibrated the controller, it didn't take. I started to take off and it went sideways a little and 2 legs broke. Re-calibrated and all was fine. Anyone got a link to a new set of legs?

The Thunder QQ Super Flight Controller is garbage and I will be replacing mine.

The auto leveling feature has one big major flaw that caused my S500 FR4 Glass Fiber Quad Copterto crash twice, which ruined two arms and four legs.

The auto level will always fight the end user when trying to turn. For example, when fly my quad forward the auto level will try to level it out after 4 seconds. As soon as that happens you can't go forward any more, but as soon as you try to bring it back the auto level gets confused and the quad loses control.

I had to have some help me get my right stick (controller) to work. He had to program the speed controls all four and calibrate sensor to get direction control to work. I had the throttle working but each motor wouldn't work equally. You really need to read the instruction for flight control step by step. They should have more video's to help people when buying a product.

an easy build. the flight board was defective. fortunately i had a spare thunder qq which worked. tried using the frysky but it didn't work. it worked with the turnigy 9x receiver. had some nice stable flights. the flight board started to not function. while it was working it flew well. i may have gotten some lemon flight controllers. impressive stable performance when it was working.

Awesome kit for the price! Overall it's a really nice quad. As others have noted the legs are garbage. I broke all four when I was doing the setup. Barely even landed hard. The instructions were pretty poor for hooking up the electronics so I added a comment in the discussion section of this page to help others get setup correctly. My main issue was putting the motors in the right spot. I had them flipped. I highly recommend buying extra props, legs (other then those included), and control arms NOW! I should've. I broke two props and the legs during setup and another prop and control arm on a hard wipe out. Now I have to wait another week before I can get flying again. I am using the HK6S Tx/Rx and it works well although it took me awhile to figure out trim buttons. Overall I had a ton of fun putting it together and look forward to flying it more when the new parts come in.

Nice quad, but props are not good, flyable, but thats all. I don'y use the QQ controller. I use a Pixhawk and a FrSky L9R and Taranis, all bought at Hobbyking.

Overall a very good quadcopter. I have mine paired with the APM OSD Kit with 915Mhz radios, and a 5200mAh Multistar / Turnigy battery. I have several flights in and can testify that this quad is indeed super stable right out of the box. My only suggestion would be to get a set of 10 x 3.8 DJI style / Multistar (straight, not S-type) carbon fiber props if you want good performance.

If you want to add a brushless gimbal, be sure to stick with a small platform like the Turnigy Action Camera, Mobius, etc.. This quad copter will not lift a medium sized gimbal and camera like the Quanum Mid-Sized gimbal and mid-sized action cameras. Those are better suited for the S550 Hexacopter.

Very easy to assemble, all parts marked clearly, decent instructions, good support through HobbyKing's Daily videos for the S500 quadcopter combo. Very satisfied with my purchase. Thank you HobbyKing!!!
