Upgrade my Aquila 16

[queen sinew]

So uhmm… I’m planning to upgrade my Aquila 16 soon and I want some suggestions on what I can get with the budget of 300USD

[zealous timber]

just a drone?

or new goggles and transmitter too?

[queen sinew]

Just the drone

[zealous timber]

tinywhoop or do you think you're up something bigger?

[queen sinew]

Maybe a tinywhoop

[zealous timber]

ok for inside the air65 is absolutely great

but for outside aswell the air75 is better

[queen sinew]

Ok I am gonna look into it

Thanks. :>

[zealous timber]

np

[queen sinew]

Anything you suggest for something bigger?

[zealous timber]

Yes

How much bigger?

[queen sinew]

Uhmm maybe like 2 -3 times bigger than the aquila

[fringe quartz]

You can build a 3 inch toothpick

[queen sinew]

Ok thx

I would also upgrade the transmitter as the literadio family has alot of problems

The goggles dont have the best range also, maybe a antenna upgrade could help

[queen sinew]

If I were to upgrade the goggles and the transmitter what would be your suggestion?(within 400USD)

[fringe quartz]

Cobra x v4 and pocket

[queen sinew]

What exactly is a pocket?

But thanks for the googles suggestion tho

[fathom prism]

Radiomaster pocket elrs

[queen sinew]

Oh ok

Thanks

Does the pocket come with a lanyard attachment and a lanyard or do I need to buy the lanyard myself

[zealous timber]

I'd try without a lanyard first anyways

I thought i wanted one but it turned out it wasn't really my thing when i tried it

[fringe quartz]

Pocket is grippable

I don’t use a lanyard with it

[queen sinew]

Ok thanks

[queen sinew]

Thanks

Should I upgrade the drone or the transmitter and the goggles first?

[fringe quartz]

gogs and transmitter

[queen sinew]

And are any of the pavos good?

[queen sinew]

Thx

[fringe quartz]

what do you want to do with it

[queen sinew]

Freestyle :>

Or should I build a 3 inch?

[fringe quartz]

yeah

[queen sinew]

How do I build 1 tho

Idk what components I need…

[fringe quartz]

fc esc vtx camera antenna frame motors props receiver batteries

[queen sinew]

Ok thx

[queen sinew]

I found a kit online it’s called: Beginner DIY FPV Drone Kit - QAV-S 2 Joshua Bardwell SE 5” - HD Ready

I’m wondering if it’s worth buying

Found it here: https://youtube.com/watch?v=g26ASthCzvs&si=lZ-mK6h4iMST1X6P

[fathom prism]

If youre coming from a shitbox like the Aquila, a 5" isn't a good idea

[queen sinew]

It’s a 3.5

[fathom prism]

That thing is really overpriced, mostly us only and heavy

So no

[queen sinew]

Ok

I’ll continue looking then

Cuz idk where to buy the necessary parts to build it my self

[fathom prism]

A kayumini is nice, its a really durable 2.5" quad

[queen sinew]

Ok I’ll see

Is it just the frame or does it come with the components

[fathom prism]

You need to huidl

Frame only

[queen sinew]

O

Idk where to get the components and which components are good
