    Learn in a DJI Spark??

    I wouldn't buy the Spark for what you want to use it for, it only has a 100M/330 ft range and it is WiFi:( Check the specs: http://www.dji.com/spark/info#specs DJI Phantom Standard will do all you need to do for your price point, RTH should you forget where you are while flying, 2.7K...

    Hello from Down Under

    Greetings DD, welcome, The Crusader GT2 will run on 3S 11.1V or 4S 14.8V Batteries, as a beginner I would just get a couple 3S 1300mah 45C batteries. This will give you a softer and slower approach as you go through the learning curve. Then go to the 4S / 1800mah / 65C for a white knuckled...

    Headless mode is pretty much useless, this looks like a pretty decent starter quad.

    Read this before you buy anything from DJI

    Read this before you buy anything from DJI

    I resigned myself to knowing that dealing with DJI directly would be futile, there are authorized DJI service centers located throughout the US. Luckily I have one around 200 miles from me (next day UPS shipped anywhere from within my state cheap), I send my quads in to them once a year...

    A VERY Basic Question About Batteries

    The cell wiring is integral to the function of the cells as a whole, each cell is 3.7V IE: 2 cells (2S) will output 7.4V / 3 cells (3S) will output 11.1V and so on, I would not recommend trying to replace any one or multiple cells of a dying battery unless you are very knowledgeable about it's...
