    learner quad that could be built into something bigger?

    I would think 7 is a minimum.. I see a reference to some sort of stable mode or flight mode in most boards and it would be an extra channel... the telemetry as a side to the radio makes good sense.. I am leaning toward the 9xr since its software can be upgraded without soldering to the...

    learner quad that could be built into something bigger?

    holtneil.. I did look at that.. thought harder about the mini version and a kk2.1.5 with built in radio as well, but I am a gluten for punishment so I have a CC3D (found a good price on what I think is not a copy) on the way.. some motors/blades and a 450 frame.. next round of spending will...

    learner quad that could be built into something bigger?

    I build and fly kites.. I see this sport and/or rockets as what to do when there is no wind.. I do some Kite Ariel Photography for fun with a modified Cannon powershot so I would eventually try strapping that to a quadcopter.. I suspect the FPV route is more $ so chances are I will start with FCB

    learner quad that could be built into something bigger?

    thanks holtnell.. that is some great info.. I was hoping to find that there is an entry level craft that has a good transmitter/receiver, controller etc.. that I could build bigger frame and get bigger motor/blades for as my skills improved.. when I built model planes half the fun was...

    learner quad that could be built into something bigger?
