Quad $18 - MultiWii Control board for a Budget

[Tasajara]

I have been trying out a few MultiWii boards, I tried one from HobbyKing... I can say it was a pain in the A$$, MultiWii Lite. I never did get it to work right yet.
So I went on to my next test subject... It is the Flip MWC Flight Controller 1.5
It is only $18 you can add straight pins for just a $1 more. Myself I added $3 and got the right angle pins on mine.
The other thing I really like about this board is the On board Micro USB port, never look a FTDI module again! Uses a USB 2.0 Male to Micro Male to set it up.
This is the easiest Wii board I have set up. If you fly "X" or "I" quad you don't have to load/modify the code.
Just load the GUI below.

MultiWii GUI - Very simple to use, Just select your com port and set the speed to 115200... hit connect and you are good.

Here are a couple of pics...


And just for fun I tried it out in my Kitchen, because it has been raining all week..

Craig, you rock. I have been lookin for a decently priced multi wii pre built. I was wondering about the hk one. Thanks for trying it first.

Very nice Craig. I'll have to keep that board in mind if I build another!

Here are a few pics of how the New MultiWii GUI looks...

Does this board work for h quads?

 

[Tasajara]

Yes a H quad is the same as a X quad, motors in each of 4 corners. I have the same multi wii code on my H quad.

That makes sense now that I'm a little more awake today.

Got to try the quad outside today in between the rain..... I believe this will be a great controller for the money..

I like that, seems to be quite stable and great for those that are looking to get into it for a great price. Just wish that great price wasn't as high as it is lmao. One of these days.

Look nice and stable Craig. That is an excel ant entry level board,

Here you go.... Got Heli RC
Sometimes I buy 6 of each and you get 10% off the price. But it has to be like 6 green , 6 green Reverse and so on. You can't mix and match the 6.
