Whats on the bench – DG 808

Well the lockdown has gotten me bored at home so I snapped some pics of my verrry slow DG808 build.

Hmmm, what can i say..Its a cheap Chinese DG808, 4metre, I had to replace most of the hardware. Stuck for the moment as the motor pod needs modifying or it wont fit an ESC in and have room for wires.

Cabin cut off lines weren’t right and the wheel will punch up into the fuse on its first landing.

I was concerned and unsure if I could work it out, and do the build by myself 🙄. So far its going OK, just need to be able to fly it when its finished…..

Lesson: dont buy cheap!

Still, it was good to learn a lot of lessons without ruining an expensive kit, but I lack a lot of knowledge on how to fix things….. having fun anyway.
