      Yup ET electronics suck.
      Too bad, they're really fun until it craps out. Cost of replacing electronics over and over isnt worth it. You can build a better model that won't catch on fire for less and you'll spend less time on repairs.

I just got back into RC hobby and this month I got a Dynam HawKsky v2 a Dynam Smart and a KingKong ET 125s 4s and a Jumper T18 a Fat Shark Recon V3 and a Longbow FPV set up and nine Lipo batteries and I am loving Grayson Hobby. The service is great and friendly. As a veteran I love that its veteran owned and the fact that its a mile from my house is awesome. Will is super knowledgeable and friendly. Grayson Hobby ROCKS!

    LDARC, please include the plastic case as typical with the other ET's, this is very convenient for carrying it with batteries to the field. I love the ET's architecture, solid! and just waiting for the ET MAX to get all the details ironed out. Definitely, a great size for the Caddx Turtle V2 for cinematic purposes. A while back, I designed a similar size strictly for the Caddx Turtle V2, for filming, not racing. However, this ET Max, can fit a number of appplications and I just love this line's modular, clean and logical approach, the camera well protected is an added bonus.

    As a complete NOOB looking to get a first drone (done some rc planes and basic copters in the past)... I don't understand why most drones aren't made this way. It seems very durable and even if you are an expert it would make others more comfortable I would think if you fly near people, knowing it had covered props. I'd like to have something like this but with a lot of features like GPS, AI flying with gyros and proximity sensors for follow me, obstacle avoidance, fly to home and all that good stuff etc.. and a 4k camera on a good gimble on top of whatever cam is easiest to transmit to a FPV setup (720p?). I love the idea of long range too. I often 4wheel deep into the mountains to find obscure camping spots and that would be epic to use for finding things 2 miles away and taking great vids of the scenery. SO... sounds like I am asking too much right? I should probably start with something easy and when good enough at piloting, build it myself... but I really like the exoskeleton design of these things for sure. So much more durable and safe it seems? Do most drones not use them just to save weight (non-trivial in RC flight I know) or is there some other reason?... not to mention they look like those alien ships from independence day a bit haha. Oh gawd.. I have a feeling this is going to become a bigger hobby and money sink than last time I got into RC. You know something is up when every youtube droner is sitting in front of a wall of drones.. not just one or two. May the RC gods have pity on me and my small pocketbook. (⊃д⊂)

    YEAH ! I WANT ONE ! Forget about the H.D Whoop. It's about time they have a 200mw VTX and they didn't mount it under the battery. This would be a good quad for the park but until the Flight test I can't say if I would get it or not. And a H.D quad I couldn't say.

    I still waiting for that 10 minute Mix install on the ET115. I got mine up and flying and it works great. I also upgraded the antenna to a SMA style connector and a stubby Lollipop. I experienced a massive improvement in FPV feed quality. I have some photos of the conversion at the beginning of my latest video if you want to check it out.
    As for the Max, those motors don't look up to the task. The wires are too small as well. I don't mind the CW/CCW motors and I like the nuts. They look like they can be removed by sticking something through the hole. I wish that KK would give more detailed info(UARTS on the FC) either with the craft or online. I'm running the same stack on the ET115. The flight controllers(F3,F4) look identical but are different internally. You have to change the receiver from UART3 to UART6 in Betaflight.

    That is F-ing RAD! I can just imagine all the motor possibilities, and prop possibilities for this quad to make it scream!
    For consideration, I would lose the reverse threaded motor shaft, as many would want to reverse motor direction. Silicone wired motors a must.
    The thing about whoops are they really don't have all that much flight stability, because of their size, but this thing is going to be sweet!
    Extra $15 for some upgrades, like the rxsr harness coming with it, I'm in!

    @mikelovejoy2561 5 лет назад

    Looks like a competitor to the Blade Scimitar 170, a quad that there's no market for.
    Cons:
    - Way over 250 grams with battery. Huge minus considering current demand for lighter quads
    - Too heavy for a beginner quad. It's likely to cause damage when it hits something
    - One-piece frame. Works great on the much lighter ET quads, probably won't hold up to beginner use being so much heavier
    - Requires the space of a standard 5" quad to fly. Can't compete with the large quads, and too big to fly in smaller whoop areas.
    - LDARC is competing against its own product line. The ET 100/115/125 already fills the large beginner whoop category and is much more beginner friendly.
    That being said, I admit that I really like the looks of it. But I'd much rather see them make a HD version of one of the current platforms. A sub 250 gram ET 125 that is 3s capable with a HD camera that could hit a competitive price point would be very tempting. Perhaps even a Tiny GT8 HD with F4 FC and betaflight OSD?

    What LDARC thinking?
    As a beginner i'll start learning fly Acro with real brushed whoop 65 then moving up to brushless whoop 75 like mobula7 or the normal size ET serries.
    And when you confident enough, try with 3" quad (without prop guard) or go ahead with 5" quad.
    Gigantic whoop like this will make you think it's safe ... But it's not safe at all to fly arround people's and I bet it fly differently than a real micro/mini quads, thus it won't improve your piloting skill.
    4" quad with prop guard A.K.A gigantic whoop ... is not a beginner quad LOL

    Stupid company .. they had something nice on their hands and sat on it for almost 2 years (especially since the Torrent has FC issues/gyro drift) as it's popularity evaporated away. All they needed to do was update the original ET100/115/125 series with BFOSD compatible boards then bring the motors and escs up to date. Instead they just pile on more of the same unfinished, unpleasant proprietary weirdness on their builds with these "updated" GT/ET builds.

      Between my friend and I we've been through 4 or 5, some only lasted a month. Too bad, they really were fun. The cost plus repairs and replacements was more than buying better quality models. None of our other quads have that much problems. You get what you pay for, I'm done with cheap quads.
