Frame is very poorly designed; the legs on the frame are extremely weak, in particular there are screw holes to connect the legs to the ESC coverings, which results in an extremely thin part of the frame that is extremely fragile. We bought 2 of these a leg snapped on both after a few light uses / no crashes.
I've used the components and rebuilt on another frame; the components are fine. Just a very weak case.

Looks great, i purchased it at USD$50.00 BUT doesn't work fine, the break cable for the receiver are really bad quality, the flight controller (CC3D) not really good, when i finally could power the motor, they spin uneven, i don't know if is the ESC, the motors or the FC. Waiting now for a NAZE32 to see what happens

Muito bonito, o acabamento vermelho chama atenção durante o voo, fácil de configurar, basta acessar o Librepilot. Os LEDs consomem bastante carga, o eles desligado o voo dura bem mais, os motores e ESCs esquentam pouco.

amazing quad, wasnt to sure about the specs as they are hardly any but common sense made it clear for me reagrding 3s or 4s set up, but having only 12 amp esc and watching thrust test on 5inch prop on youtbe , i went for 3s , anyhow stuck some graphenes 65c 3s on and that thing goes like a rocket,, super fast,, love it, with gem 5045bn props, top camera included and 200mw tx, wasnt to sure about cc3d FC set up wheather or how to set up, but watched 360 vid, wiped the board clean and installed all fresh with librepilot, very easy once watched vid, and everything works fantastic, no wobbles or strange flight behaviour,,, top quad for getting in fpv,, only down side is that broke already couple of arms but fixed them diy style and back in the air,, ,oh and the led are the brighest iver ever seen, looks brilliand in the air,, 5star highly recommend.

Got this as my first FPV quad, and it's been a blast so far. Couple of hits but nothing broken except for props (get some GemFan 3-blade!). I removed the landing legs to save weight and drag, but this also prevents the arms from getting torqued off in a crash. Came with a carrying case. Super-bright LED bars. Two thumbs up from this guy! If you want to see it fly, check out my YTube channel "CallSignVman" for videos.

CHANGE ALL THE PROPS BEFORE YOU FLY THIS QUAD!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is a well built quad except for the props. It uses the Open Pilot Software for setup. All you do is bind to an airplane type in your transmitter and follow the Wizard in OP. I had about 12 great flights with this quad till the prop broke in flight and it crashed. I bent three of the four arms and busted my battery. My luck....HK has no parts in stock. Waiting for replacement parts now.

Really stable quad..setup with devo 802rx has everything inlcuding vtx..didnt find props and instructions for vtx until the day after..they were under the foam in the lid. Used libre pilot to set up the quad..you can find instructions on youtube..don't erase settings when updating. I had trouble getting switches recognised, with deviation you have to assign the switch you want to channel 5 and ch 6 slider(i used pot aux 6) wiring tricolour thr, first yellow ail blue ele, green rud and 2nd yellow gear ch5 i put the black in aux 1..i got this in the sale, but as far as im concerned its well worth the retail money as its fully assembled and just works. Im pretty good at helis, and didnt want the hassle of learning new set ups.
and this was ideal..A little bit of thought but not too taxing...Enjoy!

This's my first 250 size Quad. It's a high quality FPV250 Quad! Not just plug and play though, you have to go through OpenPilot GSC to setup the CCD3 first. Once setup, this thing flies very smooth and beautifully! I use 3S 2200mA battery and get more than 10 minute flight. The high intensity front LEDs and the super bright blue LED strap at the rear are also very impressive in the flight! I used this link for reference: http://www.dronetrest.com/t/cc3d-flight-controller-guide/830

buy extra arms if you buy this, nice little 250, but even little crashes will deform the arms it will be unbalanced and oscillate and not fly. cf arms would make this a 5 star buy. they could of also avoided the aluminum arms braces, the aluminum also easily bends as it is made of very soft metal and does not support the arms for very light crashes... everything else is great. nice pdb and fpv gear. the lights are very bright and make pov flying a lot of fun.

Super high quality frame and construction, just wish it had some set-up instructions , this is way better than my Runner 250.
