My poor excuse for a test withstanding...I thought the Cubes did well. I can see all kinds of cool shots you can make with them. What stood-out the most for me was trying to fly the
I2 indoors. My shop is a metal building, I have a 200 amp service flowing to it literally inches away from where I was filming, eight foot florescent lights in the ceiling, Bluetooth going from a tablet to control the Cubes, a radio was playing, batteries charging from various cordless tools, I have a 110 outlet every two feet all the way around the shop and six doubles in the ceiling on the woodworking side of the shop, I ran over 2000 feet of 110 wire and 200 feet of 220 wire..all live...all the time....I cant imagine me introducing more interference to any RC period. My remote garage door opener flips me off if I even think about opening it over a few feet away. This beast, my
I2 beast, started up and hovered right in place. The landing gear went up and she sat there in place awaiting her next instructions...unreal...awesome...I can't describe it. When I turned the shop lights off to test the Cubes, I was less impressed. The
I2 started to drift around a bit, like it was having trouble seeing where it was at,... like me. It seemed to me like it didn't see or feel what was underneath it or around it...scary feeling, I landed it like now. Tried the same process two more times, same results, everytime the lights went off (even with the Cubes on) it started to drift sideways or forward like it didn't know what to do. I decided to fight another day and quit while I was ahead. I was very impressed with the Cubes, can't wait to try them outdoors. I was more impressed with the
I2's ability to fly indoors under lighted conditions. Can't wait to get it outdoors and try a night test in a wide open space.
