It LIVES!!! bwahahaha IT Lives!!!

Got the battery charger and five new 3.7v 720 mAh from a shipper in California. Popped the Syma X5C-1 right back into the air and I just got in from some test flights. So far they seem to last as expected. About 8 minutes. I had my stopwatch in my pocket. Forgot to time them until half way through. Oh well, I'm showing a lot more control even when the breeze sprang up to spoil an otherwise calm day. I have so many spots I want to film even with this seemingly LDR camera. I'm not gong anywhere near structures and monuments until I can absolutely control this quad. SSSSSSSSSoooooooooooo better scatter cause I'm backatter!
Cheers

keep us posted
some of these November days are real still and misty. I prefer clear but I do like the calm.
are you resting the unit for a few minutes between batteries? some guys say they burn the motors out if they fly too many times too close together. I feel my motors and am surprised at how warm they get.

Probably don't wait as long as I should Sam. Good advice! I've got five batteries to rock my way through now. I was wondering if the other three Batteries I had would still charge properly [it was the charger I suppose] or if the bad [???] batteries would harm the new charger in some way.
