though the VTX came in as a Sologood


I know that these are not the greatest components so I am looking to upgrade my future builds with higher quality stuff.

Eh.... Ok I guess. I have not been watching the quad gear other than FCs which are mostly common with wing gear too.

Well, what i was asking originally was is there any components you recommend for higher quality builds? And what parts should I should I invest more in?
We have sorta got off topic talking about today's hype.

Reselling? You are aware the majority of the Ali Express super cheap stuff is limited to 1 per customer and you cant repeat the order at the low price.
Given that virtually all quad stuff is made in the far east anyway how sure are you that the Ali Express stuff is low quality.

I am talking about the stuff I got on the last order. For example I got ReadytoSky motors when I think other brands like Emax or iFlight are better. Definitely getting better FC's on the next order. Probably Speedybee.

Than i wonder where smaller places like SpeedyFPV get their stuff.
I know it says that but as soon as you add it to cart you can then change the quantity to whatever you want.......

Manufacturers and vendors get components from component manufacturers and distributors at wholesale prices often with volume discounts. Every link in the chain you can remove between you and the component manufacturer, and the larger the volume you buy parts in generally can reduce your cost.

Unfortunately I think stuff from the manufactures is about to come to an end for a bit....At least most of it.

That's the unfortunate thing when you have most of the worlds electronics made in one country....When that source is cut off, parts get more pricey.
