Yes, thanks. Phantom 1 is no longer offered on their site - now out of production, regrettably.

It's all chicken/egg stuff isn't it? ;) But, seriously, I think cattle breeds have all been named after their place of origin; not the other way around.

Never, in my limited experience, has a city been named after a breed of cattle. Do you know any?

Best I've found so far is £319 - Raj has one but £10 more!

Camping!? Good God - NO! I'm based in Hereford - does that give you a clue?

Many thanks; will look into it. Sorry for delay responding - been incommunicado in the wilds.

$300 is about £190 so that would be a good starting point, thanks!

TVM - I was hoping to find something a little less expensive. Even the cheapest DGI Phantom is quite expensive by the time a camera is added.

Thanks guys, I'll have a good look at your suggestions. However, I wasn't planning on building but was looking for a basic device which incorporates the features I mentioned. Any suggestions on that front - please remember I'm a complete tyro as far as quads are concerned.

Thank you. I'm an old customer of HobbyKing - even before they had any European warehouses. I was hoping for some guidance as to a choice of model, camera gimbals, GPS, etc.

I have some years experience of flying RC helis up to 450 size CP. I'd like to get into the world of FPV quad flying with safety features (like auto-homing etc), stability control and a camera capable of recording good video. The ability to achieve stability in light winds is important too...
