I got the Whipit yesterday. I must say, it's not what I thought it would be. After chasing it around each time I'd throw it because it wouldn't stay in the air long enough to turn it around to fly it back, I'm second guessing the purchase. Seems every time I toss it, it would shoot up into a loop and then stall and loose any height it had. Then it floats for a few seconds and it's on the ground. My first impression isn't good. I'll try again with some wind and maybe a different technique to throw it but it might become a shelf queen if it doesn't fly any better.

It sounds like your CG is off Greg. How is it working these days?

In the meantime, look for the bugs!

Yeah I got it working good now.
I had the UMX Radian out last week and nosed it in and broke off the motor mount. I glued it on in the wrong position and had to take it back a part. when I glued it on the next time I got hot glue all over the main gear and the pinion gear. I couldn't take it anymore and balled it up and tossed it in the trash and bought a new one. LOL
This one seems to fly great compared to the others.
