    Force1 F100

    Yes exactly the same. Just re-badged. Newer version's of the F100 have a redesigned transmitter and a 1080p camera included.

    Xk x350 Battery options

    There is no reason why it shouldn't work. It's batteries are not the smart type. They are just plain lipo's. Make sure to choose the same number of cells. It's a 3S (3 cell) 11.1v

    Searching For My First Hobby Grade!!!

    a racing drone, is a freestyle drone, is a sport drone etc. They are the same thing. The Rise Vusion should easier to get flying straight out of the box if everything is pre-configured. FPV quads are technical, there is not much getting around that. Those numbers, letters and components are no...

    Looking to get my first small, drone/quadcopter!

    Tx is the short abbreviation for a Transmitter - the hand held controller. You'll learn to fly better without auto hover.

    First Drone, H501A vs H501S?

    There is a big thread dedicated to the H501S on rcgroups https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?2522182-Hubsan-X4-H501S-5-8G-a-micro-brushless-5-8G-1080P-FPV-%28under-construction%29

    First build progress. (consider the thread closed :) )

    Build it then post a video of your flight time so others can learn what works and what doesn't. The 4mm thick arms will be more durable in a crash. 4mm/5mm is pretty standard nowadays. Modifying them wont save much weight if that's what your thinking of doing.

    First Drone, H501A vs H501S?

    Pretty much. I think the H501A is overpriced myself. That's normal behaviour from Hubsan. They have a new brushless model coming out soon the H501M x4 that has a only has a 720p camera, and another new cheaper brushed model called the H216A with a 1080p camera, so go figure. If im not...

    First Drone, H501A vs H501S?

    The H502S is a toy grade quad with brushed motors. The others have brushless motors which are far better in terms of power,reliability and durability. The H501A is controlled by a WIFI smartphone and also receives the fpv video by WIFI, so yes the control distance will have a more limited...

    XS809W vs 8807w... Which one is better?

    I do not own the XS809HW. The camera shaking is also because it is attached to the made body so it effected by the vibrations from the propellers. And the frame rate of the camera isn't very good. I have seen this mod to minimise the vibrations but i havn't tried it myself yet. An other...

    Please help. Cant get motors to spin with remote.

    The arm mode switch needs setting up. And the flight modes switch too. Watch this set up tutorial for Betaflight. It goes through every step needed.

    Please help. Cant get motors to spin with remote.

    You need to arm the quad first to start the motors. Have you set up the arming switch in the modes tab in Betaflight ? And choose the correct aux channel ? Have you turned on PPM in the FS-i6 transmitter menu under 'RX setup' ? In the FS-i6 menu have you also assigned the aux channels to the...

    XS809W vs 8807w... Which one is better?

    Get the Visuo XS809W, it has been on the market for longer and spare parts like the gear cogs, receiver board, transmitter parts etc are widely available and easy to find. The 8807W hasn't been around very long. There are no spare parts available for the 8807W. I found this out when i bought...

    Newbie First Drone

    I had a bad experience with the Eachine E033. Mine kept yawing to the left and was unflyable. I recommend the Syma X5C if you were to get a cheap model.

    If you help me review my parts list then I will love you

    You'll need lower kv motors for 11 inch props. Like in the 800kv-1000kv range. If you are using Windows 10 you might have issues recognising the USB connection to the Shark X6. a guy on rcgroups couldn't get it to work. DJI Naza M lite, APM or Pixhawk are popular alternatives. How good do you...

    Newbie First Drone

    1. There is always a possibility with a drone flying away even with the most expensive drones (high winds, loss of signal, interference, hardware failure etc). More so if there is no GPS on board. If you have doubts about putting a $600 gopro on it then don't at first. Only do when you are...

    Force 1 DYS XDR220 Racing Drone Thoughts

    The quad itself doesn't look too bad spec wise. It probably is a very good performing quad. But the $500 package doesn't stand out as a bargain either. You're not saving any money with this bundle. The goggles look to be rebranded Eachine VR-007's that sell for $40 and they have the lowest...

    First time Builder... serious help needed

    Flight time and efficiency seems to be a big important priority for this build. Is there any reason why you havn't considered a bigger quad like a F330 or F450 size ? or have you chose a 260mm for portability reasons ?
