G+_Eddie Foy Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Well the KK FC doesn't do GPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_T Burns Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Also, your radio should already come with a receiver, unless you're wanting an extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Zachary McIlvoy Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 Eddie Foy it's not even capable of adding it on later? Could you suggest a good alternative? T Raburn , thanks! I wasn't sure, I don't need an extra haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Wayne Black Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Zachary McIlvoy The CC3D is very flexible and supports GPS plus many other features. I believe it can even control a camera gimbal. Uses OpenPilot and is very easy to set up. http://www.openpilot.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Eddie Foy Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Zachary McIlvoy Nope, no inputs for the GPS on the KK. The other one looked like it had GPS support. (I think I saw a newer version of the KK that had GPS 5.x maybe? But I could be completely wrong) I bought a AMP that came with the GPS and other bits and pierces for $68 on ebay inside the usa too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Zachary McIlvoy Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 Thanks so much for the recommendations guys! I'll look in to them Any suggestions on motors? That's one part I don't quite understand enough to spec out. I don't need cheap, looking for something kinda nice with plenty of power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Wayne Black Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 The frames you listed won't work with a gimbal and camera like the GoPro. You need something with landing gear that will give enough clearance to land with the camera and gimbal underneath. You could start with the DJI F450 and when ready for the gimbal and camera, there are landing skids that can be bolted on. http://www.amazon.com/ZJchao-Anti-vibration-Multifunction-Quadcopter-Hexacopter/dp/B00C57OW7I/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1430781322&sr=8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
