neat
that thing looks more stable than my helicopter ever was.
the missiles need upgrading though.

Hopefully someone makes an interface for the n900 while the price of the thing plummet a bit ;-)

yes, quadrocopter are very, very stable, but if you want a stable, really small, 4 channel, indoor helicopter i can recommend you a walkera 4#3b. the full brushless edition...

I'm glad you know walkera as well ;) I was just going to ask how did that company work on that quad for four years since it's about four years since walkera has them available :rolleyes:

Anyway, how about a T-REX 450? :D

I don't know the T-Rex, I'm more the indoor pilot ;-)
but If you want 3D -> theres nothing smaller than the Walkera 4G3 for indoor 3D

I have a Blade MCX for indoors since I rarely get to fly the 450 :(

I've seen it yesterday on TV, seems pretty cool. I think we'll see it soon even on our N900. Hope it won't cost tons of gold.

Looks pretty cool, although you have to buy that helicopter which I'm guessing is a pretty expensive toy (and not exactly something you could carry around in your pocket for some on the go gaming). Might not be a ton of interest...although now I'm interested in it...damn I'm a compulsive shopper....

i know what you mean, it makes me wonder is a money thing as far software ? the n900 is just as powerful as the apple phone, but for some reason things are going kind of slow the N-tablets been in the works for some years, who's in charge Nokia or is it Meamo 5 its not all about apps it just makes me wonder why the gates aren't flooded with developers a-phone gets Ardrone parrot and n900 gets Doom
not saying anything is wrong with that, a-phone gets a title like media device with really nice games and look emails too
apple raise i dont think nokia or maemo 5 or 6 needs to reach them but past them.. My daughter and wife have a-phones and thats all they why dont my phone have cool games like this?

Re: Ultimate Gaming on N900...

looks like you need multitouch if you want to use the onscreen-interface... :<
