ArduCopter Purchase: Netherlands

Posted by Shyam Balasubramanian on February 2, 2013 at 4:03pm

Hi Folks,

I am from Netherlands and want to purchase Arducopter kit from near Netherlands. Is there someone from Netherlands working on Arducopter(s)? It might be better interesting if I can find someone to contact here.

Also, I am a bit confused about 3DR, Jdrones or Unmanned Tech ready made Arducopter kits (without any RC txm/rx).. which one would be better on its pricing for me? I also need extension of a mini camera slot/ camera board. 

Regards,

Shyam.

    Not sure if there is anybody selling ArduCopter stuff in Europe. If you like to build models, then I'd recommend you purchase a kit and build it yourself. It's a lot of fun. If you don't want to build it yourself you can purchase completed kits. 3DR and jDrones sell both and I believe they both ship around the world. Regardless if you build or purchase a built kit, you're still going to need to purchase a radio transmitter and receiver, plus a battery. In the end you will need some tools for repairs. Yes, your going to crash, everybody does. If you take it slow and follow the documentation carefully you might not have any serious crashes. With regards to mounting a camera, learn to fly first, then think about putting an expensive camera on your copter. It's cheating this way.
    Good Luck,
    Richard
