I knew that title would get your attention! ;) I recently picked up an FMA Co-Pilot on e-bay for a steal and just wanted to play around with it. I set it up on my trusty Raptor and went to the field to begin the field testing. I gotta say that for beginners, this would almost numb you to the fears of firing up a 50 size nitro. This thing flew like a Blade CX. The calibration and stuff was a royal pain in the rump and I wished I had another channel on my radio to adjust the sensitivity (now I do, but haven't tested since) but that thing sat in the air just rock solid with only the wind making is slide gently to the side. Pretty neat! Push the sticks and let go, it moves in that direction, then levels again. It won't stop altogether, you still have to counter the movement, but it will keep you from getting it too far off kilter.

I got it to test for a cameraship I'm soon planning on getting. It may just be a nice addition.
