When I feel like I'm good enough to go miles I am going to get a GPS system for it. I have my eye on a UHF system that would let me preprogram a route and it would then fly unattended.
I have so many things I'd like to do... I'd like to build one using my Arduino stuff but on the other hand I'd like to buy a 350 QX2 as well. I wish I would just hit the lottery or get a fat bonus!

The new controller board finally arrived today! I replaced the old one and did some testing. It flies again!
Then I loaded it with my transmitter and new camera and did a few lifts to see how it would do. I need to make/buy a cloverleaf antenna for the TX. The stock antenna is the heaviest item and without attaching it the 180 seems to do fine. I will be interested to see how much the added weight decreases the battery life.
