So we have been doing a lot of writting and explaining, and some people have asked for a simpler post for those who have a slighhtly better understanding of the technology. So in this post we are just going to show off some pictures and provide you a parts list and prices if you chose to build the same exact quad as we are offering as the $500 package deal for the built and tuned quad, 2 Grapheen Batteries, 4 sets of DalProp Crystal 5x4x3 QAV-R is the next generation of the QAV-210 which now offers a removable arms in an X shape, which should provide better handling, as well as the arms are now thicker but more narrow allowing for better thrust values and not loosing the durability.

Best Entry Level Radio Controller and FPV Gear! Now more Affordable then Ever!

You have seen many of our machines but we rarely talk about what radio gear and FPV gear we recommend to people who are just starting out. I think by now everyone already knows that if you want the best gear you would pick the FrSky Taranis and the FatShark Dominator Goggles. The biggest problem with that is the set up costs more then the quad package itself. Now that this hobby has grown there has been a lot of competition and innovation that has been driving the entry level gear prices down and quality up. Now you no longer have to spend over $600 on the ground station side to get started. It is no secret that there was always cheaper alternatives out there but the quality has never been up to RushMore Mods standards, until now. Now, We are happy to recommend a package that only cost around $150 for the Radio Transmitter and FPV Goggles. Lets start with the Radio Transmitter side first. Radio and Receiver on Amazon FlySky i6 Radio transmitter is an amazing radio...

210-220mm FPV Quads. King of the Jungle

The last couple of month had been full of new product releases and tons of beta testing. RushMore Mods is always in pursuit of making sure we are at the very edge of the latest and greatest technology but ensuring that these products can withstand the abuse and time. After much testing we have settled on our new Flagship machine. 5" Propellers are the best of both worlds. They are small enough allowing you to run a smaller build but still providing you with insane thrust. This allows us to shrink the frame from the 270mm down to 210mm, and making the frame smaller, lighter, but more robust. Smaller motor to motor distance equals to better handling. Also getting the frame to be close to the X shape also improves handling of the quad as the software that runs these quads is designed for an X based machine. We have decided to use only the best of the best hardware on the market, the tried and true parts that we and the online community know will st...

RushMoreMods Big News: We are going Small, Welcome 180mm!!

During the last couple of month we received quite a few request for sub 250mm FPV quads that are made with everything RushMoreMods stands for, because of that we really did not want to just jump on something and just shoot it to our clients. We actually reached out to a number of different engineers who had already been refining their 180 frame designs and a lot of them listened to our feedback, some completely ignored us. We were actually starting to believe that not making our own was starting to be a bigger problem then a solution. Fortunately, saved by the bell. Well more like Drone Nationals, where we really got to meet and talk to the great people from Armattan Quads. Instantly we knew this who we want to work with. Just like US they offer LifeTime Warranty on their frames, which makes it a great fit in our lineup. RushMoreMods is now adding a new product that are available right away: RMM Built and Tuned Armattan 180mm FPV QuadCopter So Where does the 180mm ...

Review: FatShark Dominator v2, Accessories (Part 3 of 3) The Long Awaited Final Part of the FatShark  Dominator v2 is here. It is no accident that this portion of Review is coming out now. So much later then the Hardware and the DVR reviews. We feel that this brand new information is a must know if you are just now looking to get into FPV or looking to upgrade your old goggles to the v2. To Be Honest we are all a bit Jealous of all the newcomers into the hobby, as they are not even going to know about the Frustrations we had to go through. So I will cut to the chase. We will look at the Accessories that are available and hopefully our insight will allow you to have the best Experience in the FPV. **NOTICE** FatShark Dominator v2 has Dropped in Price.
