Maiden flight of my new Diatone Grasshopper 160 MicroQuad.

I am only running it on 2S since it's a breezy day and I'm in a small community park.  Taking it easy for the first few flights.

I'm such a noob I still crash this guy many times.  :)

I felt like the throttle was not as responsive as it could have been.  I will try flashing newer BLHeli firmware and upgrade to Betaflight for future flights.

Stay tuned for more!
