The 2-Channel Heli can fly pretty well...

...with the proper mods. I ended up taping two AA batteries to the front of the canopy, a little left of center, and it's flew pretty well today. I didn't have the supplies with me to properly mount my Cobra DMC300 5-in-1 camera to the heli, but I managed to stuff it inside the cockpit. Below is some really bad/shaky video of one of the flights. I'll try to be better prepared for the next flight.

So, the camera was mounted upside down at an angle...as I said, I wasn't prepared, so I just fit it in the cockpit the best I could. I used my video editing software, Pinnacle Studio, to try to flip the video so you wouldn't have to tilt your head too much.
