With so many choices to choose from, I was wondering what you guys look for personally when buying a multirotor.
Do you prefer a kit or a ready-to-fly?
Or just the frame or maybe a PNF?
Perhaps you prefer to scratch build?
Does it have to look good aesthetically? Or do you utilitarians not care at all what it looks like, just what it does?
What kind of flight times and payloads are you after?
Tri, quad, hex, v-tail, y6, octo even dragonfly ?
Does it have to be geared towards AP, racing, or FPV?
Maybe it needs to do a little bit of everything?
dji over everything??
After discussing this topic extensively with friends, we came up with a tentative list of what we look for and it goes as follows:
1. Affordable - Ready-to-fly under $500. PNF under $350 and kit under $75
2. Easy to build - Quick and simple. Everything you need in one kit.
3. Easy to fly - Enjoyable and versatile.
4. Easy to fix - Having the ability to make most repairs at the field.
5. Easy to expand - Adding and subtracting features should be a no-brainer.
What do you guys(or gals) think? In your opinion, what kit "has it all"?
Or if a kit were to "have it all," what would those features include?
