2Father and son learning this amazing sport and hobby. 25+ years of RC aircraft. Drone pilot from WAY back. Vortex 285 was the first FPV I ever flew. Time for the son to get into it too!

Can’t you just go fly somewhere that doesn’t bother people? Canada has strict regs too but it’s treated more like a window tint ticket. They don’t care until you do something stupid, then you’re screwed.

I have no idea what that is. I’m new to all this stuff. I literally plugged it in and it flys. So that’s good! Manual mode but that’s fine with me. If I want it to stabilize I’d fly a DJI.
Edit: had to look it up. I think it’s cleanfly but it was set up 12 years ago. I had no memory of it. We will see how it does this weekend! I’ll get video

I have a dx6i as well. Old JR radios.. hell I just tossed a bunch of my old nitro plane stuff that was crystal radios! I could have started a museum. None of it could fly though. This vortex is in new in box condition. I can’t wait to abuse it!!

I haven't flown since this thing was new on store shelves!! I never did get too interested in it back in the day. Airplanes and helicopters took up my time. I just plugged everything in and I couldn’t believe it still works! Everything turned on… forgot how to arm the thing for a second then promptly tossed it into a wall when it accidentally armed! I figured it out again… hopefully all the batteries are still good! I’m flying it this weekend!!
anyone else here still have a vortex??
