DJI F550 radio question

[Tomiangu]

Hi all, I am thinking of getting the F550+Naza+GPS+Cam gimble. I have a DX 6i radio, will this be sufficient or should I upgrade to an 8i ? and.. does anyone know of a good source for these items in Canada?

Thanks for any reply's

I'm in Canada, purchased the Naza-M GPS from foxtech in China somewhere .. to avoid the duty charges.
Otherwise I would have went with UAV Products in the States.
Pay the little extra for shipping and it shows up in no time. From China that is.

We sell the NAZA and related DJI products in Canada. www.flitelab.com NAZA, GPS, F450, F550 all in stock.

Also carry the Quadframe.com legs and GoPro gimbal for the F450/550 frames.

Regarding the radio, you can get away with the 6i with a bit of work around using some of the dual rate switches to help give you a 3 position switch to activate all the NAZA modes, but it can be a bit tricky especially if you also want failsafe. It is much easier to setup on the DX8 where it has a 3 way switch. The knob on the DX8 is also useful if you want to control the gains or gimbal tilt in flight.

Ooo forgot about flitelab, I bought my skew planars there. He's good to deal with.
