Country Quad
By AlbeeSoaring on May 24, 2017
This is my first build. I used DalRC XR215 frame with the DalRC PDB-OSD. Blackwidow 1806 motors with built in ESC. I am using a KISS FC. I decided to go with a Turnigy Evolution Radio cause I like the size and form factor. I am planning on going with a Tattu 1300 3S battery and RaceKraft 3 blade props. I haven decided on the camera and VTX yet. I killed my first build. It is currently in progress of being re built.

Guides & Reviews
AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class! Based on the popular Transformer Mini, the new Transformer 5" Ultralight adopts a lot of the same design philosophies with larger props and more payload capacity. It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..

I like the white, did you paint it?
Yeah I painted it. I wanted to be a little different. I left the edges of the arms black.
Looks pretty good, but it won't stay white for long ;) Are you going to add FPV gear?
Yes I plan to do FPV gear. I havent decided on the what Goggles I want to go with yet though.
If you're on a budget the EV800's are on sale for $48 right now. Great value.
Thanks for the info. I am not planning on going cheap on goggles but I also don't want to just buy Fat Sharks cause everyone else uses them.
I compared the Aomway Commanders to the Fat Shark Dom V3s and while the Commanders have a few more features the screens aren't as clear and they're a little blurry around the edges. I think I'm sticking with Fat Shark.
I have been looking at the Aomway and the Bosscam as well. The fatsharks are cool but I really want to find a way to try them out before spending all that money..lol
I got impatient and told my kids to get me the Eachine VR D2 Pro goggles. They did so those are my first goggles to start with. I plan to try to use them sometime this weekend.
That should be a great start. Enjoy!
