Indoor drone/F22 Jet - Toy-grade to hobby grade?

[Tucker427]

I have one of those indoor F22 jets that is powered by a drone. Had it for years and I still use it! I just want to use a hobby grade transmitter for better precision control. I could swap the drone out, but the configuration of the drone is different to all other drones, as you can see in the picture. Any ideas?

Blade used to do a drone thet could fly in x or + orientation the 350qx 

Have you had a look at racing drones ?

depends on the receiver on there brother could maybe mod a micro one that would work with a larger TX etc on most flight controller software you can change the layout ie x ,deadcat layouts.

yeah the blade 350qx was a cool quad that safe mode meant wherever you faced taking off was the orientation made it alot easier to fly 👍

After looking around I found a 4-in-1 controller board (racerstar rs20ax4) that works in + orientation. What about gyro stabilization though for indoor flight?

Arnt the gyros already built into the board ?

No, I would need a flight controller for that. Looks like the KISS FC V2 controller is right for the job. Not really expensive so far given both boards cost around £30 each.  A receiver won't be that much either. And Tiny Whoop brushless motors. Not as straight forward as I hoped though lol

Unfortunately it never is mate 😕

Eachine make a Mini F22 Raptor prop yet that I could convert to a drone using the standard X configuration drones. That should make it more straight forward and give me more drone options.
