The M V2 is definitely a safe bet. I only used the term "clone" since the genuine Pixhawks don't seem to be available anymore. There are several "clones" available that seem to be as good as the originals based on what I read and hear. They are all powered by the same open source software...

The all DJI kit with NAZA M V2 would be a good way to start building. I did one of those during the group build and it was easy to build and flys well. I originally used a JR transmitter and receiver but have since switched to Taranis stuff. I have since built another quad using a DJI 450...

Someone in my small town has 85. Not sure I understand that as I thought one registration covered all your drones.

GetFPV has good assortment of stuff, decent prices, and quick shipping. Of course, I live in FL where they are located.

No doubt. I've had about enough of this El Niño stuff - it's cutting into my golf and flying.

They are probably still in the tree where I can't see them.

Here's a pic of the poor bedraggled baby. I think the one motor broke off when it returned to home today. Notice how all the red wires have faded to yellow.

Hopefully you folks will get a laugh from this story. I got hooked into the multirotor world during the group build in the spring of 2014 - building a F45o which was fun to build and relatively easy to fly. Being eager for more fun and the opportunity to learn I next built a quad based on one...
