Also you can pick up DJI FPV combo for around $600-700 US. If you want to further your love for FPV you can buy quads with DJI 03 Air Units, a charger and batteries later.

I've spent over $5k on this hobby and am 10 drones deep 💀

[abracadaver]

Glad I am 42 Imagine your 7 in need 1k 🤪😵‍💫🤣

No ones got any money these days due to just trying to survive the cost of living crisis.. £1000 is a joke, I had to sadly sell all my stuff just to pay the energy bills over Christmas.. Loads of people are selling up due to struggling these days 😔

[SemiCollin]

The rotor riot kit has a charger that can only go up to 4s (and only 1 channel), TX12 (definitely not the best radio you can get if your paying 1k) and an very mid quad, I would say you should just buy stuff separately and save yourself more money in the long run

Thanks for the info jb I'm looking to upgrade my gear so this is much appreciated

Just saw the video of you in Columbia. That’s so cool because that’s where I live.

Arris can put you in the air for under 500$ not the best but I didn't want crash my hd setup practicing freestyle 😂, Sure would love to check out a R.R. quad . Nice video 👍

Working through starting up now. Got a zorro max and emax transporter2hd on the way, trying to decide on a bnf. Wanted to be in hdzero ecosystem and the goggles just aren't available yet, but this gets me compatible goggles and a detachable screen that doesn't become useless. Thinking I can get in the air under 700-850 if I don't opt for a 5 inch platform...

[petrokey]

Cool!
I've got elrs Cetus X - also good for start... Good, but each it's piece has aspect. Elrs, but spi. Piwerfool, but too fast for home...

[tibossleboss]

When will the DIY kit be back in stock ?

[MCsCreations]

Pretty interesting indeed! Thanks, Joshua! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[ChainsawFPV]

When I first started, could get everything, and a 5 inch quad, for less. My the times have changed.

[LukeRT]

Pretty crazy a grand just to get started, never mind when ESC start going or FCs or any upgrades, props 🤑

[LyfeisArt]

I don't know if you read these but I could really use your help but didn't want to ask on here cause didn't want to sound stupid but didn't know how else to reach out

[ndmbwwc]

is your RTF or DIY kit going to come back in stock anytime soon? Looking for the TBS Crossfire protocol version.
