I was about to order parts for my new quadcopter and got this update today.



Now I'm confused for which frame to go for? A normal frame or V shaped frame? Can someone describe the advantages and disadvantages of both? Which flight controllers support V frame?

Personally I'm impressed with V frame but worried about complexities involved as this will be my first quad.

hello
if your are talking about this frame https://www.google.co.in/search?q=v+frame+quadcopter&espv=2&biw=1920&bih=979&tbm=isch&imgil=5Q8IW3s1dJzj_M%253A%253BXYIdjInoeIiwbM%253Bhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fhobbycomponents.com%25252Frc%25252F490-reptile-v500-quadcopter-frame&source=iu&pf=m&fir=5Q8IW3s1dJzj_M%253A%252CXYIdjInoeIiwbM%252C_&usg=__LYe6ug6aCsTfAL0BMKPFFG1A8_A%3D&ved=0CC8Qyjc&ei=iI6JVZ7iBcfHuATej4PgBA#imgrc=5Q8IW3s1dJzj_M%253A%3BXYIdjInoeIiwbM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fhobbycomponents.com%252F1220-thickbox_default%252Freptile-v500-quadcopter-frame.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fhobbycomponents.com%252Frc%252F490-reptile-v500-quadcopter-frame%3B800%3B800&usg=__LYe6ug6aCsTfAL0BMKPFFG1A8_A%3D
as V frame then there is no difference in the flight controller you need not do anythng they are same the f450 and this frame are same only the design is so produced to mount your camera and get a wide angle view without the props coming in and giving you space for components the firmware for flight remains X-quad only
