I am almost at the point of buying a Blade 350 qx for fpv but there seems to be a problem with the GPS when flying fpv with it which has resulted in failure of the RTH function and loss of control. Can anyone on here confirm this problem or has Horizon solved this issue? Any advice would be most welcome.  :-\

Here you go: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/multi-rotor-helicopters-487/11592623-blade-350qx-gps-interference-gopro-how-fix.html just need some copper/aluminium foil over your GoPro Hero 3 and it seems to fix it.

Just saw that Horizon are including copper screening to make a neat little gopro box with new 350QXs.  I think its great they are recognising and providing a fix for an issue with someone elses product which is outside their control. I am guessing if you get the latest firmware 2.0 version (part number ends with A) this will be included.
