Hello everyone,
I am a newbie at multirotors and i need some assistance with a tricopter i would like to build.
I have comprised a list of all the items i am buying from HobbyKing and i was wondering if you guys could maybe improve it or help me to cut back on costs where possible. The list has to have everything in it that is required to create and fly the tricopter (excluding tools such as soldering iron, wire cutters, etc).
This is designed off of the RCExplorer Tricopter V3 video.
At the moment the list is around $260 and i dont want to go too much higher, unless it was really worth it.
