Hi Guys. I've recently finished building a CX4. I found that attaching the batteries under the shell was a real pain because the shell is so trippy (difficult) to get back on with the screws. Instead I've gone for mounting a 4 cell 4,500mAh LiPo
underneath and it's working really well. I get about 7mins flight time. The main problem I'm having is that when I switch to GPS mode (no red LEDs blinking) the CX4 starts to go in anti clockwise circles getting larger and larger till I'm forced to correct it. I'm talking 10 mtr circles and growing. It does this every time and I'm very puzzled by it. Even the DJI guys couldn't give any helpful advice.

I've been eyeing the CX4, but can't seem to find anybody with them in stock, especially in North America. Beautiful frame....Can anybody point me in the right direction? This and the new X468 traveler are my next victims...

Hi Rick,

I think its not easy at the moment to get them. My dealer got two and i was lucky enough of reserving it right away.

Check the swiss guys aerodron.ch digitech.nl and the other european dealers DW has on its website.

Can one of you give me the dimensions of the CX ? about height excluding the GPS when it comes to WKM.

Thanks

japp looking forward to see how mine will behave. I just starting to wonder if the 2217 axis were a good choice.

2217 are fine with 11x5 they have good power , theyw will do better on a 5S.

my guess is if you use a 5S4000 you will have best of all worlds.
i get up to 15 minutes on a 50004S
