  • Cutting out!!

    Hi guys.

    Just wondered got a blade 200 Srx and the thing decided to cut out mid flight after a few minutes, and then it's saved by the floor. Anyone had anything similar?

    Thanks all

    If you'd have said the nano then yes, a lot, but thus far not a squeak from the 200. Worth a look on the American Fori to see if they are suffering over there?

      How many minutes? From a fully charged battery, I would imagine you'd get 4 to 5 mins before LVC hits ... Do you have a LIPO checker?

        With the 'supplied' battery the 200 is good for 9+ minutes with 30% ish left over.

          LIPO checker still worthwhile though! When you're focusing on flying, it's amazing how quick time flies too!

              Haha comedy genius. It was a fully charged battery. Haven't got a special charger apart from the standard supplied one. It would cut out then I'd walk over to it. Start it up again then a few minutes later cut out. It stops dead. Wonder if it's the motor. I'm going to phone wireless tomorrow and see if we can exchange it.
