One effect of 4S speed is that I have much less ability to fly through video breakup. I'm moving so much faster that the video dropping to an effective 5 frames per second or whatever is no longer survivable.

Another effect is that crashes are more dramatic. The RCX2206 motors are taking it like champs so far. After each crash, I blow the dirt out of them and keep flying. The Strider Flex frame is also a beast. I have yet to break a frame plate or arm. This crash did smoke one of my Littlebees, though, so I guess they're not completely bulletproof. (EDIT: LITTLEBEE IS FINE. It turns out one of my motor wires got snagged, but the heat shrink was hiding the break.)
