WLToys V262
$68 Mobius Action Camera
A short flight above Short Canyon near Inyokern, CA. I get reasonable results merely cellophane taping my Mobius action camera to my WLToys V262 Cyclone Quadcopter Drone. There was a heavy breeze coming up the hillside at this spot. Took me a while to figure how to use it to my advantage with the quadcopter. But this spot would also be best for flying RC gliders and airplanes. Someday I plan to get a Hubsan Hawk FPV RC airplane/glider. If so, you bet I'll be flying it here! Here is the exact location of this flight:
As I always recommend, beginners please consider this cheaper option to learn to fly on before purchasing an expensive high-end quadcopter such as DJI Phantom or even AR Parrot. Keep in mind that crashing is inevitable for all RC beginners (it's a right of passage). The V262 is somewhat durable, as is the Phantom. But stuff happens. It also takes time learning to maintain orientation on a quadcopter. Losing orientation in flight can lead to bad results. Would you like to risk a $100 or a $1000 quadcopter while learning to fly? Once you're comfortable flying, then consider the higher-end models (that is if you're still interested).
