Title: how much does it costs to make a tricopter Post by: profoundr on February 18, 2013, 03:14:41 PM people i want to make tricopter under 9000 but its going upto 10000
Title: Re: how much does it costs to make a tricopter Post by: pranavh on February 18, 2013, 06:18:03 PM How did you arrive at that estimate? If you post the components you are looking at, we can suggest cheaper alternatives, or even if some of them are unnecessary.

Also, don't look at the battery, charger, and Tx / Rx as "costs" of the tricopter, because you can use them on other helis or planes as well. Even so, from this list your total is 8500 including the above mentioned components.

Title: Re: how much does it costs to make a tricopter Post by: pranavh on February 19, 2013, 05:16:09 PM Hobbyking tip: Stay on one prodct page for a long time, it'll come up with a popup which offers a discount. It isn't much, usually 2-5 usd, but it adds up.
Another tip: ship using airmail and in small batches. Its cheaper that way, and less customs problems Title: Re: how much does it costs to make a tricopter Post by: profoundr on February 19, 2013, 05:22:30 PM thankyou :)
