Hi all, I'm new to the forum and to drone building. I have flown many drones but I want to build my own custom build. I am very confused about what parts to buy as there are so many and I worry about buying incompatible components. I was hoping to get some direction from some of you experienced drone builders on my idea so here it is. I have this 1:1 scale replica of a mavic Pro which I 3D printed. It currently weights 207g. I want to kit it out to do the following,
Have a range of about 1km
Have flight time of 25 - 30mins
Have good over stability in a light breeze
Have a return to home function.
Have a camera that I can veiw on my tablet or phone.
Apart from being unfamiliar with the parts I'll need to build this all I can find online are fpv tutorials. I don't want to use goggles I just want to use my phone or tablet. I tried hobbyking.com but they don't support app based camera functions. I was wondering if I bought a cheaper €50 wish drone which supports the camera app function via WiFi, could I incorporate just the camera and its transmitter into my build with higher grade components? I know this seems like a long way around way of doing it but I can't find any kits that support the specs I want with this camera function. Any tips or advice appreciated thanks.
