Holy smokes what a deal! So they cover warranty if you fly in blinding storms, try flying this one into a lake and see if they cover that!

Eight days later, a brand new QX 350 (with battery and all accessories,) arrives at my door, with a zero balance invoice! Horizon is one 'Stand Up' company!


That's awesome ... glad it worked out for you. There's still some stand up companies around!

I forgot to reply to your message thanks! for the response , i totally forgot about the mount plate thing a guy locally is selling one of these mounting things that are controlled by servos? i think they would bolt right in
Let me know how it all works out. The Tarots have folding legs already but it's manual and needs to be done by hand. I'm interested in finding a nice clean way to add servos and making a guide to help others. I'm realizing very quickly that all these things are adding up now in weight and drastically limits flight times. Planning ahead helps to see what compromises/add-ons' are worth the end result

Here's some footage from my F550 running Naza V2/GPS and Zenmuse HD-2D. I personally fly with a DX18 but a DX8 is plenty. All in with GoPro3 Black, landing skid, spektrum telemetry and 6 battery packs it's just under $3000. It flies great, little tricky to pack up if you have to fly with it but not impossible. It isn't as solid as my S800 but still pulls great footage.
