Eachine items update

As an aside - the "presell" we saw at $150 ish.... is no longer on the site and the lowest price for this item is a lot higher. Just now the Chinese stores we all know - are pumping in more and more 250 and other racing machines.

Going off all the complaints of bad after sales service, waiting forever, and defective stuff being sent out - I am thinking that they way to go is self build. Those who don't want small 250 types can go up in size 450/500 frames.

Everyone needs a 250 xD

Here is a 770mm 6H build I was working on late last night (this picture was from 1:00am, and this one from around 4:00am)

And this is my 370mm aluminium build, I plan on getting bigger motors and making it at least a 500mm.

But I still have an empty hole that only a 250 will fill hahah

Nice work.... I take it there was nothing interesting on TV last night! I am trying to fathom out all the ratio's size of motor /esc etc,. When I look on on HobbyKing - I look at frames and the '''also needs" list and usaully cost up items with the highest price on the idiot basis that they must be the best for the frame!
Looking at this and a couple of others ..... HERE

Frame would be harder to loose hahaha, looks fragile though. CF would be ideal, also DIY is always an option too, at least parts don't come from China hahaha.

Just going back to the BangGood site - the item is still listed at $150 - au$218 for me..... is it worth it??? almost 1300 joined the presale order list.
Sounds a bit cheapskate - but at the chance of half price - no hesitation! At current price - apart from needing a TX - what else is needed to this kit - bearing in mind it will a "trainer" not a racer - Churo is safe for now......
Also.. Tx, Devo 7 seems to be the most offered - but seeing vids etc Devo 12 or a truck load of others seem to be the Tx of choice.

UPDATE Mavis has e mailed me I made her feel guilty she asked how many want this 250 racing quad and will sort out discount so i said about 4 of us so I will have a price soon

Yeah I think I'd be able to put myself down for one so can count me in.
Good to have a spare, I can justify anything. Haha.
