Hey Guys. Pete Here.
I've been flying RC fixed wing for over 30 years. I got out of the hobby about 4 yrs ago to follow another interest but now I am getting back into it. about 3 months ago I built an X Quad and am learning to fly it. now i would like to step up to the next level. I know from experience this is the worst type of post but I really need help here. This is where I have been and where I would like to go. My quad is an X525 with a KK2 LCD FC. I have flown it with my GoPro onboard and I'm happy with how its all going. Now I would like to step into FPV. The choices and info out there are mind blowing. So I would like to hear from some people that have been there and have tried a few different FC's. The Air Frame and power systems are not of concern only FC. I have done a lot of reading, big mistake, now I'm more unsure. I dont want to outlay big bucks for a NAZA type system just yet but would rather build a component system that I can add to as I go. MWii/AIO, Rabbit, Flycam etc are FC's I have read about. I have Limited computer skills and am still learning about things like PID etc so I need a system that is relatively easy to setup and tune, code is way beyond me so a GUI is a must. I am old and my hand/eye co-ord and reflexes aren't as good as they used to be, so stability is also a must. I would really like to hear from people who have travelled the path I'm on, after all, we all started somwhere. Just your thoughts and your experience's.
Thanks.
