Red QuadH2o ready to fly. Comes with everything you need except a lipo battery charger. Many extras including props, replacement arms, DJI mini-osd. Great flying quad with very little flight time. Never flown over the water. $2399 plus shipping Watch a video of the quad flying at:

The problem is it all depends on your setup. There isn't a "best" for either of these. There are so many factors... Looking to save weight, Save battery power, fly behind trees/houses, distance, goggles/screen, tracking antenna, OSD, GPS, what freq is your MR using, etc. It's all comes into...

Mine are GWS - Ordered the 9x5x3 and 10x6x3 as a test. Hopefully Kloner will respond also, but I'm guessing he's using the same brand. http://www.gwsprops.com/10x6x3.JPG

Kloner: So should I even try the 9x5x3's or just stick with the 10x6x3's? Sounds like I'd get a more stable flight from the 10's? That what I'm looking for - at least at this time in my very noob-ish skills with a quad. Right now I can easily get 15 minutes on the 3s battery with plenty left...

Sounds like you are at pretty much the same place as I am. I've had the dji450 kit assembled since this weekend, and have been very impressed with things overall. I also just got in some 9x5x3's and 10x6x3's yesterday and am planning on installing them this weekend. I've been doing a little...

Ok, call me stupid! I don't know how I missed that this morning when I was reading it again. Sorry for wasting bandwidth! Thanks for the help!!!

Assuming the MR is in RTH failsafe mode, is there a way to take control back when it is in the process of returning home? The RTH process works flawlessly, but I'd like to be able to bring the MR back, but then take control and not land. It will go go into failsafe with either a switch or by...

Another update - Probably the final for this thread. I'll write up something next week on the process. I've had a day of flying on the new setup. All I can say is I coiuld have never imagined how rock solid this toy could be. By the end of the day, I was confident enough to hand the...

Just a small update. Fished at least the first step in the Flamewheel FPV. Got the motors spinning. Something I didn't know - the props start spinning upon entering the start sequence. I assumed I had something way wrong when the motors started spinning even though the throttle was all the...

Ok, things are starting to make sense. Once again, thanks for the help everyone. I'm beginning to see what all the talk is about the WKM lacking enough ports now. Boriss, I've got the 6208 receiver - so should be good to go there. Swisser, I'll take your advice for now and set it up with the...

I may do that. I think I've convinced myself to get the 14 channel futaba reciever so I don't have to choose which things to use. So does this make sense: 1 - A 2 - E 3 - T 4 - R 5 - X2 (IOC Switch - 3 position switch) 6 - X3 (atti gain with a knob on the transmitter) 7 - U (Control Mode...

Ok, I've been reading for days and weeks on this forum as well as others to try to get my feet wet with this machine. The parts have been ordered and should arrive in the next day or two. I think I understand all the principles of how things work, but I'm still stuck on the "channel...
