Hi all,
I don't know anything about RC tech but my brother is a huge RC enthusiast and has a lot of planes/helicopters/cars/boats but not quadcopters yet. I was thinking of getting him one for Christmas but I'm a little overwhelmed and am looking for some advice. Any help would be very much appreciated!
My budget is around $500-600 and while the DJI phantom is something i'd probably get for myself, I think he'd prefer something that he can put together himself, tinker with, upgrade, etc. So I was thinking the DJI 450 would be a good option, but I don't know what I need to get to make it complete (or mostly complete) and how much that would actually cost... For example, I'm looking at Atlanta Hobby and they have a $360 kit for the F450 that includes a Naza Lite and GPS but it says it will need a transmitter, receiver, a battery, and connectors. Does anyone have suggestions? Is this a reputable site? Is it likely that a transmitter he already has for his helicopters would work?
Thanks!
