First Project

Hi

This is my first project and i'm looking for a bit of advice.

I'm looking to build an ArduCoper as am wondering if my existing cheap old traditional electric heli could be upgraded as as an entry point.

This a what I have about from years back.

I am keen to try an APM2 in place of the existing gyro board and reuse the airframe, servos, motors etc.

Would it auto stabilise / hover etc or does that only work in autonomous mode?

I don't have a large budget so was looking to get started with this then upgrade it to Quad or Hex a bit later.

What would be the minimum kit for this conversion, or am i best going for a the basic quad or plane kit?

Many Thanks

  • I would just start from scratch, not much you can use there for a quad and you can get good frames for $25-$30..
