This is the first untethered flight of a scratch built 260 quadcopter. I was quite nervous as I have had many failed attemps. Cc3d atom with quattro esc. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=non7t9tbPrw

Second transition flight, this time full throttle. This is a blast to fly and is quite fast, sorry for the lack of great footage, I have no one to run camera duty. Not sure it would have helped this time as I got out of sight in a hurry. I kept my height to under 300' but, can't tell you the distance but would be around 1500-2000 feet. This is the best of both worlds, it Flys a bit like a wing and in multirotor mode it Flys like a heavy 500 sized quad. Next flight I will run full acro mode in wing config. In copter mode it's great as long as there is little wind. The down sides are 1. no reverse threads for the ccw prop, you need to check it every flight and/or use three lock. 2. Nose has a huge weak point I advise running a hot rod through to make a spot for a 9" carbon fiber rod on both sides of the nose to prevent breakage. 3. Not enough room to run a lrs and large wattage vtx. That's it, though some would like to be able to take off in wing mode, I think that kinda defeats the whole purpose of the craft. I would recommend this craft for anyone with copter and fixed wing experience, you don't have to be an expert but, not a great idea to fly this as a beginner. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQ5k2zX0EZk
