Title: 250 quad..
Post by: Viper on February 12, 2015, 10:27:51 PM
Well my first Quad and my first FPV, ready for her maiden this weekend weather and time (and batteries arriving) permitting.
Not done 2.4 in an aircraft before and am a little unsure where to route the antennas... but this ship isn't built for distance so I hope it will be ok...

I have a twin antenna receiver so have the antennas coming up like a grass hopper at 90 degrees to each other, this seems to be the way to go for the small quads. I and going for a maiden flight this weekend as well if I get a chance, happy flying ☺️

How long do you think the camera will last stuck out and exposed like that?

I agree, I would move that camera if you want it to survive.

I have whacked the front of my 250 on so many things.  :D
