guys may i know this gimbal can install on DJI fc40 or not? just plug n play or need some modification?

u have to ask seller that ... lol

Just recalled that i used to be here when I read something in other section.
Hahaha, Qiw still so active ..... great!

u quit already meh ??

Quit temporary. I have totally stopped for 4 months and could probably extend the stoppage until next CNY.

wow ... fantastic baby ... lol

is it possible to get a used rtf 450 with fbl kit for less than 500?

RTF means radio charger battery etc .. as well as the heli itself ..
rm500 ... highly unlikely la

even walkera set?

if u know about walkera sets then i am sure u would have done your research .. LOL
u can get those old ESKY belt CP sets la

Oh, yeah. Sense the smell of "Belt CP" so attracted me to come here

Qiw, wonder who is still selling used Belt CP ... hahahah

anything wrong with walkera fpv stuff? i'm currently eyeing the fpv 400 coax. buying for the FPV electronics alone, for salvage later.

nothing wrong ... dunno much about walkera fpv stuff...
used to own a few walkeras ... not cheap but quality ok

good enough for me. the fpv 400 coax seems quite a good deal. devo f4 w/ LCD, camera dv04, rx/tx for video and a fairly large coax with 380 motors. quite outdoor worthy i guess for beginner FPV. all for under 1k.

plus, the FPV electronics can be reuse on other 4 channel stuff with the help of rx-601 receiver. so even if you outgrow the heli, the FPV electronics can still be carried over. sounds like a good plan for a poor man's FPV solution?

coax by nature does not handle wind well ... unless u flying full scale then it will be much much better laa ... hahaha

for rm1k ...excluding batt and charger and radio set

DIY quad ... rm400
camera .. rm100
vtx and vrx ... rm300+
cheapo LCD from brothers acc .. rm100+

hehe...that's actually more expensive than the walkera fpv400. i'm looking at ~RM800 RTF here. plus:
1. me no experience building/flying a quad = probably adds to cost
2. me no experience building FPV setup = more cost
3. me no have programmable radio set = add to cost
4. me fly HBFPv2 now, so i do have spare 380 motors = win (i guess should be upgradable to eXtreme 380 motors too)
5. fpv 400 close to HBFPv2's size = probably can salvage some stuff if the heli really sucks. (at least they use the same batteries. )
6. probably can transfer most of the electronics to my HB if the heli fails.

so i guess in my situation, the RTF walkera would be the best/cheapest path for my 1st FPV flight. sure coax<multi rotors, but hey at least it's a 2feet long coax, so it'll probably survive minor winds due to the extra weight alone. my only issue is it's hard to find a decent review on the thing.

thanks for the cost estimation. at least i know how much i could save.

btw, you could really get a decent DIY quad for RM400? care to share specs?

yes i can DIY a decent quad for around rm400

DIY frame .. less than rm10
controller (my choice) ... naze32 .. rm100
esc 20a x 4 .. about rm110 for 4
decent cheap usable motors .. rm45 x 4
props .. rm20 or less
some small misc costs for connectors and wiring .. less than rm20
labour to build ... free ... your own labour

and thats a BRAND NEW QUAD for around rm400

hey, thanks. great info there. just had a look up on the controller manual. looks kinda errr....doable.

a multi-rotor would only need 4 channel TX/RX for normal flight, right? so my plan of transferring the FPV electronics to a quad someday is pretty much "on the right path"?

Hi guys I'm planning to get a cheap RC Quad : looked through lelong and got interested in these babies :
http://www.lelong.com.my/walkera-qr-w100s-...5-06-Sale-P.htm
or
http://list.lelong.com.my/Auc/List/List.as...d=&PriceUBound=
or
http://www.lelong.com.my/syma-x6-2-4g-4ch-...7-01-Sale-I.htm

I would like the first one buy expensive but it is fpv!
or get others then buy a seperate cam.
Though the Syma x5c n x6 does come with a cemera which is great! but i don't know bout the quality

fpv electronics can be transferred to other things ... even rc car if u want ... lol
yes... quad only requires a 4 channel


any of them would prolly fly fine ... dunno how reliable or stable la
