This is my first night-ready helicopter. I love flying this in the dark basement, but not sure I am ready for pitch black night flying yet.
I got this heli because I wanted to try my hands at night flying, and the lighted disk looks pretty cool. Looks more like a floating disk, than a rotating disk.

Will try and get some pics later tonight.

I picked up on yesterday and yeah it's really cool. I'm having problems getting it setup to not drift back and to the left. Do you have the same issue or is it bad quality control from helimax?

Mine drifts. There's a thread on that in the heli-max section. Seems they did a bad job with the gyros. It will get better, but only a little. Tail blows out very easily too. I can only fly circuits with mine. If I try to flip it, it crashes every time, due to the blowout.
