Won-oh-won Rayser DrONE! This is the kind if Quad that helps a pilot improve their skills massively. When they float and recover and don't have complexity in the build it sure increases confidence. My LEADER 120 blew my mind with these kinds of behaviours. Can't wait til they drop a 5 inch. Anyway Markolito! Thanks for sharing...too bad I was a little late to getting to Banggood. I have so many points to use there and it's sold out. Dangit! See you in the sky!
It looks like it has potential for long range too with a better vtx because of how efficient it is. Thanks for the review l, I’m interested. I was skeptical of the 1806 motors on a 5” but it works! And it works well too!!!
Great review. Did you notice the big price difference between GearBest & Banggood? Crazy!!! Since you posted two links, I assume you bought your's(?) Great job on your channel, keep up the good work. Thanks
Mark, quick question. Just got my 200gt, ...love it !!!!...but ...when switch to flip over after crash, both front motors turn . It still responds to pitch and roll input, but when stick is centered, front motors spin. Any idea? Needless to say, I won't be using that feature until I sort that out. Thx.
I think a eachine tx03 should be a perfect match for the runcam. Cheap small and light, would complimemt this quad aswell. Or the akk nano3 with smart audio?
G'day Mate is there room on top for the receiver , as I have that stack in my et125 , i got the 3 level stack which has a much better vtx , which is easier to change channels and power settings .
I wonder how they got such long flight times. My 4 inch superlight has small light motors, weighs alot less than this, and I only get about 3 minutes of flight lol.
I thought I had to take advantage of gearbest sale to get my first five inch, and now I wish I would have waited, this looks great, and with all good instructions to help out would be awesome, I got the stormer 220, and even in angle mode it drifts all over the place, it won't hover, making it so hard to fly, (but at least it fly's, the q96 I got at the same time, has one motor that won't spin, and the vtx started melting while I was plugged into the USB, while configuring in beta flight) anyway I don't know if I can fix this in blheli, or trying to trim. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Well, looks great, bang-u-good is $30 cheaper, I'd change the antenna, put some caps on it, put Velcro pads on batteries...They advertised only 12 min flights!? Thanks...
It comes more and more very good drones. (Y) Kingkong strikes again with their crazy good flight time. And awesome user manual. I actually searchin for this manual if is anywhere on web to find it. I wish to have it. The only thing I could complaine is that have a little too much of static. At least for me. But all other things looks crazy good and especially for this price. (Y)
Will be a video of replacing it? At least this time. Replacing/repairing/preparing,... videos are the same important as reviews/flying videos. But I understand, such staff is more for patreons. (Y)
Yep, just add the receiver and it is good to go. Although I did upgrade the VTX in another video and really like that upgrade. I haven’t broken anything on it yet. It’s been really good. I have another plan for it coming soon.
Yo Mark! Please do a comparison of this LDARC 200 vs. The BFight 210. Both light 5" models both similar priced...now. And both LIGHT and FLOATY! IMO, the PERFECT two to do a comparison with pros and cons of each. In my bo0k, the BFight 210 was THE BEST BARGAIN 5" OF ALL 2017 !!! Without a doubt, was there even a 2nd place?! (remember, it was $99 !) lol Sure, open it up to other sizes and the Leader 120 on bargain price was a definite contender for best bargain of 2017! But, for 5", there were no competitors! Ha! A super-duper Mark comparison would be awes0me! 🤔😉 Thanks Brofessor!
Yea, I miss some of the deals of late 2017. The BFight was for sure my top budget pick. I haven't even really looked at it since it's price went up so much. And then for a while you couldn't get parts for it. I have some comparisons for this and will see if that one makes the list any more. I'm not sure.
www.gearbest.com/brushless-fpv-racer/pp_660786.html Have you checked it out lately? $135 and the receiver was the only part that sucked and this is PNP so people can use an XM+ ! That's arguably a better deal that this LDARC 200GT ?!!! Remember, the BFight 210 is awfully go0d! Super light, floaty, easy to control, a GREAT flyer! Especially when you think of what other 5" models can be purchased for that low of a cost right now! NONE?!! I think I might still buy the Bfight 210 over the 200GT with the price @ $135. It's a great quad! Everyone says so... Who cares what the price used to be? It deserves to be compared to about the ONLY quad that is close to as go0d as it is since then, for the dolla !! :)
I don’t know, it was magic for $99. But right now for $10 more you can get an x215 and that comes WITH an XM+ receiver and a Holybro FC. bit.ly/X215Pro I would pick that over the BFight. But the 200GT is a whole different thing for me. The BFight is lightish, but it’s almost 50% heavier that the 200GT, they feel totally different.
One things for sure its an addictive hobby! I myself in the last month got the x215 pro, the sky zone 140 and thanks to you Mark had to go for the fpv egg 138! Feeling like I need this one now. Got to say I love my bfight too!
N D... You're the perfect one to ask! ... Did your X215 come like the original ones reviewed did? Cuz there were reports of them changing it after a while and it having issues. Still have the Holybro FC? What do you think of it compared to the Bfight 210? With those two, I don't know why you'd want this one... I'd save and get one supposedly in another league... The Emax Hawk5. This 200GT, X215, and the Bfight 210 seem too much alike. No? 😎
Hi. How does this compare to the XJB145 ? Both similar price & both can fly on 850mAh batts . I have the XJB145 , so will this 200GT just be too similar ? I never fly my old 210 Quad, it feels like a truck. :-)
This one does not come with a battery. These are my battery recommendations depending on what you are trying to accomplish. Battery for an ultra long flight times: bit.ly/GNB4S120C1500mAh Battery for extreme performance: bit.ly/GNB4S80C850mah
Several reasons, the motors are smaller and draw less power, because of that they use less aggressive props, which also require less power. This could just equal it being way underpowered, BUT, it is SO light that it has more than enough power when it needs it, and when it doesn’t need it it is super efficient.
DroneRacer101 I tried Turing on and off notch filtering but that didn’t help. I’m pretty sure one of the motors might be bad because one of them is a little warmer then the others and it’s on the same side that sags. Thank you for the reply!
Almost Floss weight? Ummmm... Typical 5" Floss builds are 230g+, easy. Also, that dipole antenna is not "okay for racing." Organized race events don't allow linear antennas because of bleed over into nearby frequencies. Circular polarized only. Lastly, those KingKong props are terrible. Had a few toss a prop blade in flight, without hitting anything. Insta crash.
I will be the first to admit that I have been really hard on KingKong (LDARC)... Forever! ... Because they NEVER had an OSD and until very recently no buzzer. No OSD makes it a non-buy for me. Simple as that! I think starting with the 138mm new FlyEgg (Pro?) version in 3", they have begun to reverse their sad trend and include BOTH! FIN - THE FUC% - ALLY! LOL What did it take them? At least 9 months, if not a year, to get with all other manufacturers and jump on board with an OSD and buzzer. Sheeesh! Plus, even with their 136mm new version of the FlyEgg, it just came out, they're still shoving those other antiquated PICOBLX FC's with the small, I think 10amp 4 in 1 ESC's, down our throats - AGAIN! GEEZ LDARC, when are you FINALLY going to be out of those old, Old, OLD CRAPPY parts?!!!! 😖 LISTEN: THROW ALL OF THOSE OLD PARTS AWAY! WE REFUSE TO BUY ANY NEW MODELS WITH THAT ANCIENT SHIT! NO DSHOT - What? That's been out now for nearly 1.5 years... Maybe not quite. Well over a year! Damn! Let them go! ... Yeeeeeeeeee! 😕 But, to be fair and honest, their 138mm 3", and this 200mm 5", are SOLID, QUALITY, FEATURE LADEN QUADS! Now, and thank go0dness, they are worthy of spending out hard earned dollas on! These two models, released days part, are both on my short list of quads I'd like to own! Damn! That feels go0d to say about an LDARC quad! FIN - THE FUC% - ALLY! LOL ...

See you in the sky!
i just purchased one from the FPV Marketplace and the battery strap is a problem. This video was just the answer.
Thank you
So excited. Ordered one right after you announced it a couple of weeks ago.
It looks like it has potential for long range too with a better vtx because of how efficient it is. Thanks for the review l, I’m interested. I was skeptical of the 1806 motors on a 5” but it works! And it works well too!!!
loved your excitement for this quad so much, I ordered one.
Since the first time i saw it i wanted this quad. It's awesome for a firsttimer. Drone cams rc flew it with cyclones 5045. No problem.
Wow i'm so glad you replied to my question about the best sub $150 drone. This thing looks awesome!
Great review. Did you notice the big price difference between GearBest & Banggood? Crazy!!! Since you posted two links, I assume you bought your's(?) Great job on your channel, keep up the good work. Thanks
Have just got one on the strength of your review this will replac a very old far too many wires SRD 250
Finally I need that balance lead video!!! 😋
This drone really looks great, especially for the Banggood price atm
What about putting the T-Motor Air 40s in these? They're not too powerful, but they're very light. I think that with these quad they'd rip!
Mark, quick question. Just got my 200gt, ...love it !!!!...but ...when switch to flip over after crash, both front motors turn . It still responds to pitch and roll input, but when stick is centered, front motors spin. Any idea? Needless to say, I won't be using that feature until I sort that out. Thx.
Oh crap I might just get my first 5 inch very soon! 🔥
great vid! cool quad .i love my fly egg 100
I think a eachine tx03 should be a perfect match for the runcam. Cheap small and light, would complimemt this quad aswell. Or the akk nano3 with smart audio?
Great review. I'm looking forward to the Balance Lead repair video you mentioned. I've got more than one pack that needs some TLC.
That one should be really soon. I had to get it recorded just so I could get my batteries back. :-)
DroneRacer101 Awesome, looking forward to it!
Another good LDARC quad 😀 thanks Mark
WOW I LIKE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS DRONE!!!! COMES IN A COOL BOX TOO!!!
GREAT REVIEW!!!
GREAT FLYING!!.
& GREAT CHANNEL!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
👍👍👍
Really awesome model, man! That quad rips! 😀
Cool review! Just curious but how far do you usually drain your batteries? I was told not to go below 3.6V per cell, am I being too conservative?
run the VTX on top and put the receiver on the bottom it will fit nicer that way and you will be able to put a nicer VTX in there
Brilliant!
Yep. That's what I did with my 130 FlyEgg. ruclips.net/video/HTgB-_2htKk/видео.html
that stock velcro isn't supposed to go under the fc, it looks amazing tho, want to build one for racing but using a 500-800mah lipo
Looping it around it didn't seem to be nearly long enough.
its the same that was included on the rammus200, at least mine fits pretty nice on a 1300mah, still it was just better to replace it with a good strap
as for vtx i would go with the EWRF-7087UV14 since you can hook it to your fc via smartaudio, plus it's really small
not going to lie im usually a micro kind of guy but this one is definitely intriguing
Go with the Vtx03. I love the looks of this quad. Every review on this has been stellar. Plz do a give away on this. Thx Mark.
I’m not sure it would fit. Sorry. This one isn’t going anywhere. It’s got to many mods and more videos coming. 😁
Nice review, wow long flight time
G'day Mate is there room on top for the receiver , as I have that stack in my et125 , i got the 3 level stack which has a much better vtx , which is easier to change channels and power settings .
I'm love with this drone right now. Just don't have money to buy battery charger and so on so I'll be just loving at distance hahahaha
6th... looks like this will be my first budget 5 inch quad. Lol.. i did not saw your battery until the slow mo. Fly great, did you change the pids?
Nope, these are their custom pids from the factory.
I wonder how they got such long flight times. My 4 inch superlight has small light motors, weighs alot less than this, and I only get about 3 minutes of flight lol.
I thought I had to take advantage of gearbest sale to get my first five inch, and now I wish I would have waited, this looks great, and with all good instructions to help out would be awesome, I got the stormer 220, and even in angle mode it drifts all over the place, it won't hover, making it so hard to fly, (but at least it fly's, the q96 I got at the same time, has one motor that won't spin, and the vtx started melting while I was plugged into the USB, while configuring in beta flight) anyway I don't know if I can fix this in blheli, or trying to trim.

Nice work, love the drone, fast nimble little bugger. Jeff
I like it more every time I have flown it.
If there's space a TX 200 on the back of the Runcam would be perfect imo....
Damn it Mark. My Banggood wishlist is about 2km long because of you! :-)
You should see my purchase history. 😄 I have 2 VIP5 accounts and could probably have several more.
Really nice model!
Great video buddy this is a beautiful quad.runcam.f4.niiiiiiicccccccceeeeè
It comes more and more very good drones. (Y) Kingkong strikes again with their crazy good flight time. And awesome user manual. I actually searchin for this manual if is anywhere on web to find it. I wish to have it.

very cool, Im interested in getting one. I just need to add the receiver??? how durable is it??? thanks
Yep, just add the receiver and it is good to go. Although I did upgrade the VTX in another video and really like that upgrade. I haven’t broken anything on it yet. It’s been really good. I have another plan for it coming soon.

How fast is it with a radar gun and which props work best.......
That’s awesome!
too bad its sold out ! GREAT REVIEW ...thank you.
Nooooooo, I found Gearbest and Amazon links and added them to the description, but they are both more expensive.
It's back! Banggood: bit.ly/LDARC200GT (Now in stock! Use code aff7off in your shopping cart)
Hi. How does this compare to the XJB145 ?
Both similar price & both can fly on 850mAh batts . I have the XJB145 , so will this 200GT just be too similar ?
I never fly my old 210 Quad, it feels like a truck. :-)
It’s pretty different. WAY more efficient. It just kind of sits in the air. It’s more relaxing vs ripping balls with the XJB
bought one based on your review :-)
WOW, I WANT ONE NOW:, THAT'S A WINNER. JohnnyDRC
thats actually not a bad price.
Put a VTX03 on there.200mw and tiny

damn... now I will have to order another Kingkong drone. curse you!

DroneRacer101 Thank you do much...I decided to buy flyegg138
DroneRacer101 That droneConnecter is xt60?
Can i use dal 5046 with it?
Did it come with a lipo? Most ldarc products do nowerdays, right?
Most do, but this one did not.
DroneRacer101 thnx. I will order some for this quad. To bad it's currently under restocking till june
Son of a pithch, I wanna get one of these!
-Wait..this isn't a GT 200. It's a 200GT!-
🤣
Is the beeper loud even with the battery in position and blocking it?
Oh yea, it’s super loud.
Can I fly it with 1500mah 4s
Is this better than the hawk5? Which 1 should i buy?
Jan Domingo hawk for sure.
The Hawk 5 is a better racer for sure. But if you are just out having fun I might pick this just because of the ridiculous flight time.
why is the flight time longer?
Several reasons, the motors are smaller and draw less power, because of that they use less aggressive props, which also require less power. This could just equal it being way underpowered, BUT, it is SO light that it has more than enough power when it needs it, and when it doesn’t need it it is super efficient.
I was thinking about building a similar setup to this.
kingkong made a 5inch drone a couple of years ago 210gt
Ah, I wasn't flying much at that point and didn't see that one.
Could you do the hover test with the same battery with a 500plus all up wieght vary curious
Yep, I'll include that in a comparison I have coming.
i just got this drone, and im not that impressed. It has some weird pull in the front when i punch it.
Do you have Anti Gravity enabled? May need to turn that up some.
DroneRacer101 I tried Turing on and off notch filtering but that didn’t help. I’m pretty sure one of the motors might be bad because one of them is a little warmer then the others and it’s on the same side that sags. Thank you for the reply!
Almost Floss weight? Ummmm... Typical 5" Floss builds are 230g+, easy.
Also, that dipole antenna is not "okay for racing." Organized race events don't allow linear antennas because of bleed over into nearby frequencies. Circular polarized only.
Lastly, those KingKong props are terrible. Had a few toss a prop blade in flight, without hitting anything. Insta crash.
nice, send me one ;P
I will be keeping this one for a while. It's going to have more videos.
And same props
I will be the first to admit that I have been really hard on KingKong (LDARC)... Forever! ... Because they NEVER had an OSD and until very recently no buzzer. No OSD makes it a non-buy for me.
