Hey rahul i vote for H.A.L it is quite sturdy and for cheap tarot is quite expensive. Unless you will do Photography with a high end DSLR cam i think the tarot would be useless. A cheap DSLR is what i think i would mount on the H.A.L

Plus you have a 28-14 so according to specs it should fit, if the H.A.L crashes(god forbid) you can buy another one inside the price of the tarot. Grin Wink

If CF then go for tarot, but the cf looks like stickers and tarot is written in aluminium colour on it so i suspect  if its cf. They have just laser etched their name on the inner aluminium.(It does look like that)

@arun sir, thats what I am looking for, any replacement landing gear?
I know HAL's good. but if I can afford CF, why not CF?

can I see your landing gear which you modified please?

@adityaamg- Exactly. Its a well built frame. but its aluminium. CF is much better and most of the high end frames use CF as the material.


Should I go with taylon if not these?

H800 is costly but ya its well built Smiley

HAL is heavy? isnt it? Also its not foldable
