I was watching a person YouTube video today and he had one of his AR Drones modified with the Radio TX and a fatshark FPV how cool would that be flying around the neighborhood from my porch! Has anyone every done this...

Thanks, what are your thoughts on the Dominator, but if I went that way I have to buy all the parts individually right?

I will check things out. thanks

I took a look but they are outside my budget. I bought way too many things lately so I need to keep my budget around $400 that is why I was thinking of the Predator. But lets say I went with the Dominator, it looks as if this may be a very clear view? but I am a bit confused on what I...

Does the Predator provide video or is it better to save up and buy something better? I do wear reading glasses but with low power so will I have any problem using the Predator? I have a budget of around $400 and plan on using it mostly with Autonomous flights on my quad.

why are you getting rid of them, and if you still have the system how much are you looking for

I keep second guessing myself, I went back to look at the Predator which comes complete also at a much lower price. I watched some video of people using it and they seemed to be enjoying things. Wish I was near a place where I could try them all on, but I will have to depend on others for...

Hello. I have been looking at buying my first FPV system to use with the 3Drobotics Iris. I have been told that my best option would be the Attitude V2 SD . I am not sure I will need the tracking camera that comes with it, and not sure if it is sold only that way? Also I was told that the...

You can be sure I will try and explain all that I experience, good or bad as I venture forward with my Iris. I will try to take come video of it flying along with some from the gopro that will be on the Iris. I did order the gimbal so I am very curious on how it will work. I plan on taking...

I should be receiving my new IRIS in a few weeks. I did want to jump the gun and by it earlier, but glad I have waited till the consumer version is out. I have been reading all I can and when I came to my choice I did this because of all the help that 3Drobotics offered. I think their...

I know this is not the correct area to ask, but you mentioned the AMA. I used to belong about 20 years ago when I was learning to fly planes. But I have not been a member for about that many years. Is there an advantage to have this membership if I fly in open areas? thinking if my copter...

You are so right but as you know there is always a person or group that just want to complain or disagree to get people riled up! I used to work with this guy who was a programmer and all he wanted to do was protest, did not matter much what it was about, only that he wanted to yell and be...

I am sure everyone has heard about the push of different government agencies trying to put a ban on Drones. I am not sure how to get people to rally and let the law makers know that we are just enjoying a sport and flying no different than what has been done for many many years, only with...

As I near the time when I want to make a purchase I keep coming back to the multi rotors made by 3drobotics. I have been watching the Iris and was told the release was going to be this month, but so far have seen nothing. They also have a few other RTF systems and some kits. My question is...
