just a few picture's and a flight video of my first build.
i have been flying quads for around 2 years now but i started flying hobby grade 1 year ago :)
ever since then i got addicted to fpv and now i'am planning my third build.
here is a flight vid!

fc and esc's are from the darkmax 220.(had nothing then isseu's with that quad)
and i defenitly wanned to go cheap on the rest of the build. thats why i ordered a cheap frame and motors.

Great to see parts from the darkmax that are actually salvageable. I got reemed buying 3 of them. Clips on the motor bottoms falling off, motors just failing, Fc failures, ESC fails, death rolls and free falls. They didnt stand behind the product. I built two so far and have parts for two more. This is the way to go. I would say Diatone has a good record and drones fast enough and cheap enough it's hard to build one cheaper yourself. There's a few others worthy of that statement but not her to promote anyone. Building it's nearly as fun as flying it though once you understand the basics.
