You talk as if your life is hinging on being able to fly a quadcopter. Calm your tits.

you should check the archives for /rcg/, the general for anything radio controlled.
Calm your tits. Nothing should lead to your life depending on it, if so you'd buy the most expensive commercial one and have a pilot from a camera crew fly it.
Also please have some etiquette and read the fucking sticky. This is a slow board. Bumping won't help.

I have been saving up a whole year yo make an fpv racer. I like building stuff but I mostly want to fly with my head in it so that's my drive to doing it. 3 days ago I started looking up how much it would be in total. I didny want a half added quad, but would still go cheap as much as possible. problem is I have nothing rc related yet, no controller nor goggles. these things alone are hard to find below 200 euros together. you can build a reasonable quad for about 350 euro. and then I said fuck it. I'm not paying 550 euro for a thing that I will use so frequently it'll crash every week at least once. and every time I have the risk of having to rebuy like 50 euros of equipment. totally not worth it. since I'm a materialist fuck I bought a canon m3 instead :). maybe later when I get rich I'll build a quad.

also sorry for the blog. I just want you to think about the things you could do with the money. if you already have a controller/goggles the decision is way easier.

I am building a fpv racer at the moment, >>1014068 is right that it is expensive, I bought parts for a bit more then €500.

A friend of mine just bought a rtf quanum nova pro, for something like €300. It has all the bells and whistles like gps, altitude hold, return to home.

I don't know what would be better for you, it depends on your budget and your ability to build/solder.

For a first quadcopter I recommed buying a cx-10 from china, with extra props and a prop guard. That way you can practice indoors, it is lots of fun and not expensive.

Pic is my work in progress quadcopter (no fpv parts yet) and my cx-10.

This guy has a nice channel with a lot of info to build your own but if you have money buy a DJI Phantom

You should just buy it. You clearly do not belong on /diy/

Small training drones are already dirt-cheap.
So since you are even asking this question — just buy something ready to fly and (ab)use it all you want.
Either you will "get good" at it and will be able to make an EDUCATED decision about your next drone or you will realize it's "not your thing".
