EXI 450 with Hobby King/Assan mini-MEMS 250 gyro

I rebuilt my EXI 450 after my gyro misadventure... And this time I set it up properly (helps to RTFM, read the frickin' manual...)! Here she awaits her test flight.



I test hovered her in the garage, wanting to keep the flight short because I just spent so much time putting her back together. Rebuilt the tail boom and tail rotor assembly, rebuilt the main rotor head assembly, replaced and re-setup the stripped servo's, reprogrammed the Dx6i, and setup the CCPM. Then I spent a half hour setting up and rechecking the  Hobby King mini-MEMS gyro. Then, it was out to the garage!  Short video clip shot by my 12 yo Luke from a distance with zoom, so apologies for the shakiness of the video.  I totally own the shaky piloting...
