![]() Hi All,
Here are some Win and Fail shots from our day racing mini Quadcopters. West Devon saw a group of FPV pilots meet for some excellent FPV Racing of mini Quadcopters, the weather was ideal and the garden a perfect place to setup a track to try and avoid hitting obstacles. We all had so much fun and it was good to put faces to usernames on the day. We all had our own take on how a mini racer should be setup for racing with a variety of components showing their strengths on the day, the Mobius sports camera seemed to be a common item on the quads and had quite a beating all day on every quad but survived very well. To keep things fair we all used 5"x3" props (2 blade or 3 blade) and a 3s setup, the quads were very evenly matched with the advantage going to the pilot that manages not to hit anything. Thank you to the pilots and spotters on the day for a great time. Best viewed full screen at 1080p

Wicked news mate, I am sure your going to have SO much fun. I use Fatshark Attitude SD goggles with their vTx and vRx, I use a Sony PZ0420 CCD camera with that and use Skew Planar antenna on both the Tx and Rx, its an excellent and reliable setup

They also have a very nice form factor with a nice rubber feel compared to the plastic feel Doms and are a bit lighter I think. Headtracker as standard was a bonus but still not used it once in 3 years as I always use multirotors, if I flew a wing/plane then the headtracker would be used for sure.

![]() ![]() Glad your having fun with the S800, that's a big whirlybird ![]() Quote:
Quad = ~£140 Radio gear = ~£140 FPV Gear = ~£300 Extra bits = ~£150 so in the air racing with a similar kit to mine, brought from scratch is about ~£750 But of course the initial outlay is very high and very low for adding on any more frames to your hanger
