To me, it sounds like you post whatever your quadcopter does without any prior research (whether this is true or not). | |

I doubt reasons could be compared, a RC motor is electric (I assume) and R22 is a piston engine or a turbine. What could stop one will likely no affect the other. If this is the rotor itself, due to a lubrication or thermal contraction cause, the two mechanisms are not at all similarly built and are not affected the same way (my assumption). Don't you have the temperature operating range in the manual, by chance? | |

Reword so it's not about model helicopters & better matches the answers.

Cleaned up

| Oct 23, 2015 at 12:08 | comment | added | Andy | The rotors stopping abruptly is NOT something regular helicopters will suffer from normally, I'm pretty sure of that... You may have a problem with battery performance at low temperature, or if you were outdoors and the controller is infra-red, the signal may have been interrupted. Or there could be any sort of random glitch in the electronics. | |
