    How do I start building my first drone?

    I realize a controller is part of an "initial equipment". It will be used for almost all subsequent builds. That's an unavoidable expense. Maybe I should start with a brushed diy drone? If there is such a category. I'll keep looking. Thank you.

    How do I start building my first drone?

    The cheapest price is from Banggood (about C$130), but with the transmitter/controller as additional expense, I am looking at over $200 Cdn. Too much for a "beginner's" first attempt. It's like a never-flew-a-drone-before beginner trying to fly a brushless, no bells and whistles quadcopter. Not...

There is a specific way to install the props. Drone won't take off if the props are not installed correctly. A...

    Emax Tinyhawk Brushless FPV Racing drone review

    RE : props won't turtle Eachine M80 has a turtle switch. However, it also has altitude hold feature which might be a "turn off" for the "pure" racing enthusiasts. I am a 3-month old newbie, I welcome altitude hold option. I ordered the M80 from Banggood, without the goggle as I already have...

    Sudden Crash

    No. A most emphatic "No". Drone just don't drops from the sky. I, myself, is a newbie (about 3 months experience). I have about 10 drones, 2 of which are by Holy Stone. They are toy drones, by the way. None of my drones have ever dropped from the sky. I have numerous crashes, but that was my...

    Wow! What a feisty little quad!

    I love my Bugs 3 so much that I just had to get my hands on it's little brother, Bugs 3mini. Today it arrived. Charged it up and took it out for a flight. Holy Smoke! One little touch on the stick and it reacted instantly. And, I was on Angle Mode only. It was real fast. Probably 3 times faster...

    MJX Bugs 2w stability issues

    I don't have a bugs2, but I remember that the controller has a switch from GPS mode to just Altitude hold mode. Yes ? If I am correct, did you by any chance switch OFF the gps mode?

    Motors / batteries question

    I'll use MJX Bugs3 as an example, but the question actually means to apply universally...….. Battery flight time : approx. 12-15 minutes. Alerts : Controller will beep when drone battery is low. Question : After changing with a fresh battery, should I fly the drone right away, or should I let...

    A newbie's mistake, or should I say..... ignorance?

Naturally I flew in Mode 2, and I love it. so much so that when I had a good deal for a EX2mini, I took it. The 2 are simply big brother/little...

    Newbie question about 5.8ghz compatible goggle

    EV800D is for $123+. Not sure I want to do that, although it has the DVR. Most likely I'll settle on EV800 for $82. 5 inch screen is more preferable than VR007's 4.3 inch.
