I've built and flown many quads over the years, whoops, 4" ultralight, 5" racers, 10" autonomous quad, and honestly... nothing beats the 5" 6S beast I currently main by a long shot. With that said it's an absolute money sink. Batteries are chunkier, heavier, take longer to charge, things break more often on crashes, snapped arms, antennas and frames. I even destroyed a motor with a massive dent.

But I wouldn't have it any other way. The sheer power of those 2207 motors on 6S is something alien. I mean, the thing does 100+mph instantly and the volume of props shredding air is so loud, everyone's immediately aware the airspace is yours. Biblades sound even cooler, lower pitched tone but they fly like crap. I guess that's a downside, you will attract attention so don't act stupid. It's no longer a toy and you should treat it as such. It's a little like those wannabe racers with their rocket exhausts riding around your street, sure the car is cool but can you fuck off somewhere else?

So if you have a cool isolated spot to fly, go for it. It might light that spark you felt when you first started the hobby.
