Thank you for supporting DroneRacer101 by using these links. Testing all this hardware is quite expensive.
Why did I review this? Because I saw the specs and said, “No way those are right. They can’t sell that.” Then I got it and took it as a personal challenge to get it flying.
Wow that’s ancient. Im pretty sure thats the quad the Egyptians used. They apparently only flew about when the gods wanted to rip some packs.
Is this a drone based on a ROBOCAT frame’s bottom section? 😀
What the???
I wasn’t aware libre pilot was available for computers. I thought it was done with stone tablet etching and when the industry upgraded to scrolls and quill pens people stopped using it.
“Someone probably ordered one of these and has no idea what to do with it.”
A: Return it and travel to this decade
I see $117 in the listing. Do they pay you that?
Getting some serious nostalgia. I was very slow to change and until maybe 6 months ago I still had a CC3D in one of my quads. I had forgotten how bad PWM and librepilot was compared to Dshot and betaflight. Thanks for the memories, even if they weren’t so great.
M-ARK! Please show us what she’s like with Betaflight….I have a cc3d I would love to flash with Beta….however thanks for the LibrePilot taste test….I haven’t ever plugged into that program. Gonna have to now.
See you in the sky!
i like the look of it but that old tec inside has to go
Yes please try betaflight!
That is some flight controler lol.its huge
Leds will light up ya house there that big.
Picture is horrible
I would hate to buy this one and find out about this one I would be pist off that they even sold me this one. Anyway thanks for the information. JohnnyDRC
Thanks for this blast from the past. Makes me appreciate much more what I can buy today as a newbie. The pace at which this hobby progresses is astonishing. But even if a modern 2″ blows this one out of the water it seems the designers have put a lot of thought into this.
That camera lens is terrible!! lol
*3 years in the future* Your quadcopter uses an SBUS connection?! That’s a baby’s toy!
