Bought here and only flown 4 times. We ended up going with a gimbaled platform, but this worked fantastically when we tested it. XProHeli XP2 Quadcopter. Built specifically for jello-free video! It is a great quad - takes anything you can throw at it and keeps getting great shots! Well used...

Still for sale?

Thanks for the post Chris, great looking pricepoint

Hey man, I'm a noob too and have been training orientation and smooth flight for a couple of months now. LOVE IT! My end result is for AP as well, and there's no denying that the tough little mqx blade can take a beating and keep on going. It's been invaluable to me. About to make my first 'big...

Very cool, thanks for the post! Gotta love TED...

Fantastic thread, damn near anything Kloner and Chris chimes in on is always of value to me as a videographer just getting my head into this stuff.... Thanks for such valuable info!

Very nice flying, great camera of course. Heavy though!

Good point jcmonty, I mention octos and discovery's just because I've seen so many lately. Really just a 'cover all' statement. On your other point, i couldn't agree more. I think the price is the key, a great brushless gimbal would cost 70% of the gross Ecilop. That doesn't even start taking...

Ok, so I'm heading toward buying and building an Ecilop Easy Plus. Done tons of research, and it looks like a fantastic AV platform. But... I see so many Octo's and discovery's lately, that are RTF, tuned and tricked out for the same amount or cheaper. This is a mass appeal to all multi/octo...

Beautiful design, i love it!

Hope i'm not muddying the waters on your selection, but being new to this and an av guy, i'm heading towards the Ecilop frame/style. Probably not the best for a first timer, but i have one purchase and i'm dead set on making the best long-term decision... Something to check out anyway...

Jeff, Regarding an investment, like any, it all depends on a variety of factors. Just having a great rig and even perfect flying skills doesn't ensure success. Having an active and growing network, the right equipment, and a bit of luck is true for anyone in this business. I'm just getting into...

Thanks jamienz! I'm a first time multi guy and i hear its a bit tricky, i feel confident (why?! Lol) but dont want in too much over my head... Ok, yea maybe i do. I've got the multi bug baaaad!! :D

Thanks for the heads up Stacky!

I don't find much for this model in these forums, but does anyone have any experience using them for video?
