Please allow 1 to 2 extra business day(s) for us to test fly your X830-S before delivery. A test flight video of your X830-S in a 4gb flash drive will be shipped with your purchase.  X830-S is the first commercially available quad that is shipped with dynamically balanced motors which results in one of the best video footage ever produced. Whereas most other brands of quads require days/weeks of assembly and tuning, the X830-S is fully assembled and tested.
 
The X830-S is highly reliable, it uses four 35A ESC with cooling algorithm that can carry heavy payload with super low motor/ESC temperature.
 
Turbo Ace X830-S is a multi-rotor drone designed for recreational and professional applications including aerial photography, videography, surveillance and aerial inspections. Unlike most other multi-rotors that requires days of assembly, balancing, testing and debugging, the X830-S comes fully assembled, balanced, programmed and tuned with final test flight performed in the USA. State of the art features include cutting edge Xaircraft X650 flight controller, integrated vibration dampening super structure and dynamically balanced brushless motors and ESCs. Excellent flight stability plus optional vibrations dampening camera mount offer an exceptional platform for video and FPV options. With its high payload capacity, you can mount a variety of video camera, lens or extended flight battery. Flexible features includes uploadable firmware capabilities, expandability to 6 and 8 motors systems and a multi-module architecture to ease maintenance and repairs. Convenient parts and technical support is serviced locally by Wow Hobbies in California. Since we also offer some of the best receiver, transmitter, upgrades and options, you can easily get everything you need in one place.
  
CAMERA MOUNT OPTIONS: Turbo Ace X830 RTF Camera and camera mount on photo are not included.
FPV OPTIONS: You can integrate 3rd party FPV equipment utilizing the X830-S
TRIPLE SHOCK CAMERA MOUNT.

FEATURES VIDEO QUALITY:
Mitigating vibrations is the key to high quality video on multi-rotor platforms. In addressing the source of vibrations, the X830-S offers precision dynamically balanced motors, a rare but very effective implementation. To reduce the risk of harmonic vibrations associated with high speed rotors, X830-S' super structure locks all 4 arms in a centralized clamp. And to minimize the possibility of video signal interference, the common cause of waves and lines on video, the X830-S utilizes aluminum tubes and ABS body instead of carbon fiber. Example of video distortion, notice the word "COUNTRY". Goto http://www.wowhobbies.com/250seinstruction-2.aspx 
In addition to the absence of wave lines, the X-830-S video are sharp without the jello effect caused by high frequency vibration generated from unbalanced motors.

FLIGHT STABILITY:
Turbo Ace pre-configures the X830-S so it is exceptionally wind resistant and at the same time gives you maximum auto stabilization by utilizing 2 custom preprogrammed flight modes, cruise and hover. This type of custom configuration often takes days to tune in a DIY (Do-It-Yourself) kits with unpredictable results. 
 
DURABILITY:
X830-S motors and props have been re-engineered to take multiple mild crashes. Due to torque and vibrations, standard screw mounted props tend to dislodge during flight. The X830-S propellers are keyed to fit the top of the motor shafts which is a big improvement in securing the props. Another vulnerable part of the motor to prop connection is the motor shaft that extends (the neck) beyond the motor casing. X830-S keyed props are flush fitted on the neck which provides better support, alignment and virtually eliminates the possibility of bent shafts in minor crashes.

 
MAINTENANCE:
The X830-S is extremely easy to maintain and cost less to operate. Entry quadcopter buyers are often unaware of the high cost of maintaining a multi-rotor. Most other quadcopters costs hundreds of dollars per failure/crash. The X830-S' maintenance friendly design allows operators to switch out modularized components at much lower costs.  For example: Instead of the more common 4-in-1 ESC in most other quadcopters, the X830-S ESCs are 4 separate individual ESCs - each with removable high tensile strength spring loaded connectors that are easy to trouble shoot and install. By disconnecting the spring loaded connectors near the motors, each X830-S motors can be easily dismounted and serviced without disassembling the arms.
 
COOLING:The unique placement of all 4 X830-S ESCs are directly under the central hub where they are protected and well ventilated. The central location greatly reduces the chance of ESC damage in a crash or hard landing. The X830-S also does not required the use of an internal cooling fan. In most systems, if the fan malfunctions, all your ESCs will be in jeopardy of burning up. X830-S ESCs are cooled naturally by the rotating flight propellers. And X830-S' improved cover design with 3 groups of ventilation slots offers ample cooling for other electronic components such as the gyro and the flight controller.
 
POWER and PAYLOAD:Turbo Ace motors are build with high efficiency stators and they are 20-25% more powerful than its Xaircrasft cousins. The X830-S is rated at 5 pounds maximum payload, please note that under no circumstance should any drones be operated at maximum payload. Many factors such as battery type, altitude, temperature, wind conditions and safety concerns may affect the X830-S ability to carry heavier payloads.
 
LOW RADIO NOISE: The X830-S extension arms are made of heavier duty 12mm aluminum instead of the 10mm carbon rods. Unlike carbon arms in the X720, the stiffer aluminum arms more effective in reducing harmonic vibration, eliminate the problems associated with carbon fiber splits and inherently reduces radio frequency interference. This translates to longer flying range with low radio noise for better video image.

STRUCTURE and WEIGHT: The X830-S is designed with power efficiency in mind. This means that every gram is accounted for during the build. The motor mount, central hub went through tension, compression, bending, torsion and shear engineering to obtain striation integrity and weight savings. The propeller size and pitch are optimized for maximum lift and wind resistance.
 
EXPANDABILITY:
The X830-S also offers expandability both in software and hardware using XAircraft proven reliable FC1212-S flight controller upgraded to the latest version 1.33 and online software updates are free. It offers expandability for multiple optional devices such as GPS and compass plus a variety of camera mounts, rotor blade to choose from. The new version of the Xaircraft GPS offers pin point precision and quick satellite lock.
 
HEADING CONFIGURATION: X-mode heading by default but can be reconfigured to +mode.

LANDING SKIDS can be reconfigured by changing the optional carbon tube length to accommodate different types of camera and camera mount such as GoPro Hero 2, see 2nd photo above.
 
FLIGHT MODES: Supports Hover and Cruise Modes which can be altered during flight.
