My name is Nathan, a French who lives in Shanghai since I've got a phantom 3 I started to be interested for the fpv racing. But God, too much thing and my main problem currently is the wiring... But I'm getting close I'm just now in the phase to make my list of "what to buy" and then check how to assembly everything to be sure before to buy. Otherwise my other passion is the photography, climbing and brew my beer haha Posts: 1,590 Threads: 89 Likes Received: 1,283 in 768 posts Likes Given: 1,274 Joined: Jan 2017 Reputation: 31 09-May-2017, 11:04 AM (This post was last modified: 09-May-2017, 11:09 AM by Carl.Vegas.) Welcome, It sounds like you have a decent combo if hobbies there. I would say my mental image of trying to do all 4 sounds dangerous... drinking beer, on a cliff somewhere, trying to take photos of a quad... This is definitely a good spot for help on getting started with a build. These guys have helped me tons on mine and I pretty much learned what I needed from posts here or on Oscar's blog. Speaking of Oscar's blog, here is a good post that I've referenced a couple of times: https://oscarliang.com/250-mini-quad-part-list-fpv/ I've also read this one a couple of times: http://intofpv.com/t-some-common-questio...pilots-ask and then another thing outside of this site that I found useful was a youtube vid that is getting some extra attention around here lately thanks to Aaron. https://goo.gl/kxgScb It's pretty helpful and talks about the wiring since you mention that being a problem. (posted as a goo.gl so that the forum doesn't automatically embed the video) Good luck and definitely keep us updated on your progress! carl.vegas Current Quads: Operational: Diatone GT2 200 In need of repair: Bumble Bee, tehStein, Slightly modified Vortex 250 Posts: 2,416 Threads: 51 Likes Received: 1,861 in 1,175 posts Likes Given: 3,315 Joined: Mar 2016 Reputation: 74 Welcome Nathan!

The youtube video i've already watched it, but i need more specific details haha Glad to help! All 3 of those links have been a huge help along the way with the exception of wiring up my FC... that I had to dig deep on the internet and I am still scared that I might have done it wrong (but I don't think I did lol). The video is great but it's absolutely quick and dirty rundown. For me it was more a confidence builder of "I've seen someone do it, now maybe I'll try it" than it was a purely instructional video. carl.vegas Current Quads: Operational: Diatone GT2 200 In need of repair: Bumble Bee, tehStein, Slightly modified Vortex 250 • Posts: 5,314 Threads: 672 Likes Received: 3,155 in 1,743 posts Likes Given: 2,027 Joined: Jan 2016 Reputation: 139 HI Nathan, welcome to the forum of love and multirotor hehe feel free to ask questions in the respective forum sections ! looking forward to seeing your builds and flight videos! • Posts: 2,410 Threads: 136 Likes Received: 1,790 in 1,052 posts Likes Given: 3,302 Joined: Jan 2017 Reputation: 50 Its an addiction You sure you're ready lol Welcome to the forums! • Posts: 73 Threads: 6 Likes Received: 22 in 17 posts Likes Given: 111 Joined: Feb 2017 Reputation: 1 Welcome Nathan!
