Walkera Furious 320 - 639$. Is it worth to buy?

[fumij]

The furious 320 was recently announced from Walkera it looks like a decent/good quadcopter, what suprised me was the camera 1080p @60fps is pretty damn goot and also 320degree rotation
Its price is 639$ @geekbuying, can you find a drone with 4k camera in this price range?

do you know if this uses the same controller as the 250?

Furious 320 use DEVO 10 transmitter, runner 250 use DEVO 7, not the same

do you know if this uses the same controller as the 250?

But if you wanna use the devo 7, you can buy the Furious 320 bnf and buy the devo 250

Very high "cool factor" but I have seen on other forums people complaining about Walkera's customer service. One thing to think about is when you eventually crash it and need parts. Looks like it may be expensive to repair.

Flight times only so so....Very sweet looking "H" design. I have taken a particular liking to the "H" design lately having just built one myself from scratch. Looks like they crammed all kinds of goodies on it. It looks like the motor booms actually tilt? That kinda creeps me out.

It is using devo 10 or above radios (example devo f12e) as you will use the knob to adjust the rotor pitch. The Devo 10 alone is worth the buy, also known as the universal radio; you can use it on spektrum receivers to fly a large range of models, planes and multirotors.

Here is a video

Walkera Furious 320 compare with Walkera Runner 250, Which one you prefer?

 

[fumij]

Walkera Furious 320 and Walkera Furious 320 both support 1080p HD Camera? But Walkera Furious 320 has Devo 10, and Runner 250 has Devo 7. Which one is better?

Do you know for how many meters is it still controllable? Also, where can I find spare parts? It would be great to have an extra battery or two.

Devo 10 better, get better range and more use out of it. I fly horizon hobby eflite planes with my devo 10.

Walkera Furious 320 Dragster Drone Flight Test Review

This advanced quadcopter is designed for rapid forward acceleration with its tilt-rotor design. Also equipped with a 1080p 60fps FPV camera with microSD card recording, and OSD (On Screen Display).

Available in both non-GPS and GPS versions. The non-GPS version includes CC3D open source (LibrePilot) configurable flight control board with three selectable flight modes. For the non-GPS version, these modes include 6-Axis Stabilized, Horizon (stabilized but no tilt restrictions), and Acro (non-stabilized full manual mode).

For the GPS version, the flight controller is Arduino Mega 2560, and configurable with Mission Planner. Available flight modes of the GPS version includes 6-Axis Stabilized, GPS Hold, and GPS Return to landing.

Pro's
- Streamlined tilt-rotor design provides rapid forward acceleration with minimal drag.
- Carbon fiber construction makes this quadcopter very tough.
- Open source configurable flight control board.
- Very stable quadcopter when flown at lower speeds.
- 1080p 60fps camera with built-in microSD digital recorder. The same camera is also used as the FPV camera. No need to fabricate and attach a camera mount, or extra camera to this quadcopter.

Cons
- Experienced unusual and uncommanded yawing to the left when flying at higher speeds. Still unsure of the cause.
- As it is a somewhat heavy quadcopter, high speed turns require extra room as compared to smaller lighter "racer" quadcopters.
