3D Robotics RTF X8+ (915 MHz) Drone

The RTF X8+ (915 MHz) is new and improved. This heavy-lift, multirotor is a powerful, versatile solution for aerial photography and autonomous flight applications. This completely redesigned version now offers enhanced lifting power, increased flight time, and greater responsiveness thanks to the higher-voltage 4S batteries. This new design also features a fixed FPV camera mounting point, a built0in 12V regulator to power FPV equipment, and a gimbal. This awesome product arrives fully configured; just unfold the arms and legs, attach the propellers, charge your battery, and you’re ready to fly.
