Do It Yourself First FPV Drone

Main Content

"GUI's first Quad"

After getting familiar with the lingo, it was time for me to start getting the parts for my first FPV Racing Drone. I've been doing a lot of research and I apologize if you think this page is incomplete, but in reality what I decided to do from the beginning was to start writing and sharing my research as I go, kind of a blog... so bear whit me. I will be posting a few "kits" I found on the net but since this is my fist quad I will be building what I think (based on reviews, opinions, videos, blogs) is a very good drone to start. I do not want to spend a lot of money in the drone since I will be learning to race whit it.

"GUI-001"

AnothI found on youtube a video explaining step by step how to build a very good and afordable racing drone, I decided to go with  a ZMR250 frame and...

"GUI-002"

I found a video whit this set up. I think is a good option but I'm staying with GUI-001.

GUI Option 001

I'll be getting my parts from the following sites

- ebay: I'll probably do a post about buying in ebay, you can save a few bucks if you know how to, be sure you know who you are buying from, if it is to good to be true... it is not.
- Amazon: probably not the best place to buy drone parts but if you need cables, connector or tools this is the place to go.
- hobbyking: huge inventory, they claim to be the world's No1 online hobby store. Be patient with the shopping car, some times it will not let you continue because you picked parts from different warehouses.
- Banggood.
- I'll update this store list if I find anything worth sharing.
