ARRIS capability

[FRD135i]

Are the ARRIS RTF drones able to be upgraded as a fliers needs grow? They seem to be good starters but will you outgrow them?

Sure can if you are inclined, here is one I found on another forum:

Upgraded Arris 250, RTF - RC Groups

Sold Upgraded Arris 250, RTF Aircraft - Electric - Multirotor (FS/W)

www.rcgroups.com

Or you can start your own build and collect them in various sizes like myself and others on this forum.

They're overpriced and outdated IMHO. Check out UAV futures on Youtube, he reviews all the new stuff. For another $50 you can get top of the line parts.
For example:

Skystars Star-lord 228 F4 OSD FPV Racing Drone w/ 40A BL_32 ESC 800mW VTX Runcam Swift Mini 2

More expensive yes, but fully equipped. Just my 2 cents

Thanks, dude who was selling the Wizard backed out so I am on the search again.

I still have this one

Lumenier QAV-XS

I have a few quads built and set up but only flown once, including this QAV-XS. Ready to go with full FPV and FRSky receiver. PM me for details and parts list. I'll let it go for $200 + shipping which is a steal

Price is negotiable

So here’s my two cents, I started with an Arris X-Speed 280 and I wish I hadn’t. I was afraid of the setup being too complicated but between people on the forum, oscarliang.com and my personal favorite Joshua Bardwell’s YouTube channel it’s not that difficult.

My Arris a lot of issues. The Flycolor Fc is crap, the esc is really noisy and the frame is not great. I was shocked at how much better the quality was on a $32 iFlight X5 frame was over the Arris and how much better it flew.

You can build your own and save yourself some money in the long run. And don’t make the biggest mistake I made!!!! Don’t buy anything except TERANIS for your radio. My Arris can with a Radiolink AT9S and I just bought a Teranis Q X7 and it so much better it’s not even funny.

I and everyone else on the forum is here to help!

Yea, after looking at more stuff I decided against it. Looking at some FrSky TXs right now and talking to RENOV8R about his rig that he has listed. A build still seems a bit intimidating at first, just a lot to take in. Thanks for the info...... still deciding what to do

I thought the same at first but the build wasn't the hard part. Learning how to fly, and learning how to build a craft that can take a crash and keep on flying, that's the craft

Great I’m glad to hear it! I know Renov8r has some serious build skills. If you need any help I’m happy to help! Good luck!

Purchased a FrSky Taranis Q X7 last night. Now time to get on that quad game.............

Awesome purchase I can’t tell you how much I regret not getting it sooner. Be sure and check out Joshua Bardwell’s YouTube channel and these videos joshua bardwell lua script - YouTube
