About Me:

New to the hobby but interested in flying cameras to moderate to high altitude on the cheap.

I recently bought a SkyRocket SkyViper X-Quad and got hooked on the hobby but want something bigger, WITHOUT SPENDING THOUSANDS. I came across your site and see some fantastic home builds and am gathering ideas for my own.

Paul Jeffrey replied to Paul Jeffrey's discussion Looking for advice for my first build.
"I have watched many videos of people who have successfully built these machines and I agree that a 4 channel radio is not enough.  I settled on some parts to get an "entry level" 550 class, scratch built quad underway.
