Yes tall rider the garden is big and leads onto a small field to at the bottom

Great info guys them cf arms look impressive but at a cost, defiantly upload a pic when it's all built Just in the process of buying a new house so soon as I'm in ill order the bits, I could be moving anytime so don't wanna order from China to find it go to my old house

I bet it could be done with an arduino somehow......yea I know I'd need a spare, I'll get at least one of each to start with need to order it all so I can start the build, gotta check what radio gear I have in the garage for my marder, it maybe a plane one to get me started till I buy a bad boy

I'm not made of cash but for the few quid they cost I'll buy both batterys and then I'll have a spare to swap out Towards the top end the 4s uses more bat power but is almost double the thrust... Is there a way for me to just stick a battery on each leg and once one discharges it swaps...

Now im confused ☺ 3s will be better batterys? Do i buy them instead then yea?

3 or 4 sets of decent props for £4... bloody hell i thought those cf ones were cheap Balancing them looks straight forward enough too, thanks for the link . What size props should i be looking for? the motors i found now are 2216 900kv sunny skys. Cheers guys

Yea as hd said i can get 2 full set of spare plastics for the price of 1 of those you shown... ill prob get alloy or cf arms when ive had a play and learnt to fly it ☺ Are the cf props better? Theres some on hobbykings for only £4 a pair.. if they balance up thats cheap.

Thanks al this is great advice, the one you link is the one i was getting tall rider.. well geting 2 of everything now as my buddy is doing the same now

There 2x more expensive are they 2xbetter? :) i dont mind its still only £19 per motor but want the most suitable Thanks again bud

There better than the 2212s too? They any good or am i better with a 3s lipo? Or a different motor all together

Haha cheers buddy, well ive looked at doing a relitivly cheep build but not sure if it will be good enough to learn with... i dont need the best to start with but want good... soooo so far.. Reptile 500 carbon fibre one 4x 30a simonk esc 4x 2212-13 sunny sky brushless motors 980kv 4x cf props...

Ah yea i agree tall rider. It may work well but its not what im looking for. After all i could make one from scratch if i knew a bit more. Im a ex-cnc machinist with access to a workshop so a smart gimbal maybe on the cards in the future i have been looking at lots of things all a touch...

Hi bud. Them lugs things look ok but i think ill go with a normal type for what would work out cheaper and ive seen them working too☺

Yea im going to go with the same as yours £10 from china or £24 with carbon fibre body

Yea ive been looking for a while at different things, ive seen the Chinese copys of dji motors get decent eviews but still not cheap for 4 o_O haha but i dont mind spending a few hundred getting it airbourne then a bit more once ive mastered flight. I did look at the 700mm frame on hobbyking...

Just checked out the frame and wow its cheap ☺ think i may buy one of them (maybe some spare arms too ) if yours is that steady. Ill look at motors and props, next

Looks very steady and great footage too, what lush landscape. which go pro is it the 4k one? You seem to get some good hieght too so i bet the distance is pretty good. What do you get with that setup distance wise?

Hi guys, right where do I start.. Well I've been looking at lots of YouTube videos and come to the conclusion I want to build a quadcopter I do have a budget as sorts but over time it's not too small just not thousands £ Just looking for advice from you lot really, I've never flown anything rc...
