| I have a sudden fascination with the Hornet CP. I am really interested in getting into one. I do have a few questions about them though. First a little background. My flying ability is fair. I can hover any orientation, loop, roll, stall turns of various types, split S, immelmans, auto, stationary flips and am starting to do some inverted hovering nose in and out. So I feel that I can control the little thing fairly well.
My questions are:
1. How much indoor space is really needed for just hovering? Would a one car garage be enough?
2. How is the roll rate on the CP model? How fast does it go to inverted? Or do stationary flips/rolls?
3. How much space is need for 3D style flying if it is even possible?
4. I guess I am looking at about $600 without transmitter to start?
I may be over estimating the Hornet's ability. What I would like to do is have it to practice stuff on at home. I don't really have that much time to go out to the flying field. I do have a G2 to practice on already, but would like to go this route also.
thanks,
Pete |
