Story of my first drone flyaway
All about drone quadcopter flyaway
Probably few of U will ask, what does it mean "flyaway". Frankly, is one of the ugliest things that could happen with your favorite quadcopter.

IDEA-FLY Mars 350 quadcopter for GoPro
Idea-Fly Mars 350 - poor man's Phantom quad
Till this Mars 350, Idea-Fly had other nice quadcopters but none succeeded to become popular and frankly I don't now exactly why. It could be something like weak marketing or poor after market support.
In the age of DJI Phantom 4, the features of Idea-Fly Mars 350 seem to be from the dinosaurs era. Without offering fancy features like...

Unlike its predecessors, this FQ777 FQ11W features a WiFI FPV camera which allows real-time...
