Looking for my first GPS quadcopter I found out about this new Cheerson CX-22 multi-rotor. Its launching was just announced on some quadcopter blogs.
One of my option for my first GPS quad was the older CX-20 because it has the most attractive price on the market. After I read about this new model I decided to wait for it.
Today I contacted my favorite online...

The only lack, that I found at the first view, was regarding the FPV system that uses the 2.4 GHz Wifi band and probably will have some video latency.
The iEagle Explorer quadcopter has...

Bigger-sized quadcopters are perfect for outdoor flights but it's very hard to pilot them indoors, especially for a beginner.
At first, I thought that small quadcopters...
