    Newb Looking for advice on affordable micro/mini RTF

    Once again Mike I can't argue you with your logic, I have been reading that it's fairly new and has flaws and the fact that it can't pan right or left is a big drawback, then again if someone wants to have that ability they should consider a quad that can handle a gimbal, as for the motors...

    Newb Looking for advice on affordable micro/mini RTF

    I must admit I got confused between the add on FPV and the 808 keychain cam. I understand now that the FPV cam just like the stock cams takes 2.0 mp photos and 720 video and is controlled by the transmitter, however the 808 keychain cam only takes 720p video and no stills and is manually...

    I found out about them from the video I watched where they soldered a Spektrum cam and transmitter to a receiver and put it on a RC plane.

    Have to also consider the quality of the video isn't a Spektrum like 0.3 mp? Your saying the 808 cam weighs less than the stock cam that comes with x5c-1 I found out the name of that other one that looks like the x5c it's Zuzo and the comment this guy made was that it was better than the Syma...

    Wow Mike your fast, I'm still editing my reply lol, I'm going to add one more video of the guy flying in the rain, also. I get that the thing about the SD Card and unplugging,it must be a power thing. I was going to ask you about the wide angle lense. I saw a video where they installed a...

    I watched last night a review by quad101 about the X5SW and how the wifi, interferes with the transmitter and cuts down the signal, he said all you need to is insulate the wifi transmitter with foil, and it improves, I guess if I get that one I can find, out, like the CX-30W it does not have...

    RTF quadrocopter what you suggest?

    I too got similar feeling that the AMA is wimping out and cowarding to the feds, they sure aren't no NRA lol.

    U.S. Will Require Drones to Be Registered

    Not me I haven't voted for either side of the coin in years, last time was for Ron Paul and since he was not a media candidate he didn't stand a chance. I have lost all faith in the political system, it's corrupt to the bone. the bums should be tarred, feathered and if someone lights a match...

    U.S. Will Require Drones to Be Registered

    So I posted a long post in General Discussion, wasn't sure where to post, HD just turned me onto this thread, anyhow. I'm understanding that the draconians in washing ton are serious about including the chineese toy quads in the same registration, in fact might even try to force registration at...

    U.S. Will Require Drones to Be Registered

    Not to go off topic, but in Flori-Duh you sign a paper saying that you will only use fireworks to signal distress, it's an old loophole and they have been using it for a long long time. Crazy huh!

    Newb Very Concerned About Where Things Are Going With This Hobby.

    Thanks HD I will, I'm really freaked out about this, here in OR. they are going to require hobby craft to be registered with the Dept. Of Aviation in 2016 and they already have laws prohibiting flying over property etc.

    So I guess since you haven't had much to say I'm guessing you guys aren't much fans of FPV Wifi, no doubt because it's 2.4 ghz and it interferes with the controller. The reason I'm asking is because I like the fact that the Cheerson Cx-30w, doesn't store images on a sd card but sends them...

    Newb Looking for advice on affordable micro/mini RTF

    So brushless motors are favored because they last longer and stand up to the elements the like motor in Wind Turbines, which before going into this craze I was researching to put a wind turbine on the property, another story. Anyhow I just watched a comparison video between the X5-C and X8 and...

    Newb Looking for advice on affordable micro/mini RTF

    wow didn't take long for the thread to be 2 pages, I guess I'm too winded lol. That reminds me, how important do you guys think a brushed motor is VS. brushed? Just checked out a video review of the Bayang 9, nice but only 5.5 mins flight time no way you could mount a cam on it at least I don't...

    Newb Looking for advice on affordable micro/mini RTF

    I get it, way too heavy to lift lol from what I have seen in the video, it's good to use a postage scale everything comes down to grams and ounces. Yep I'm overwhelmed that's for sure Yes the X5-C does sound appealing since it's all self contained, still not a micro, have you ever flown one...

    Newb Looking for advice on affordable micro/mini RTF

    As far as low rate, I don't mind it so much for entry level, from what I have seen on the review videos the stock 2.0 mp cams video looks pretty decent, the 0.3 terrible, of course 2.o mp can't rival 12mp or a gopro resolution, I was wodering have you experimented with mounting a mobious on a...
