Hi guys..
I am planning to make a multicopter..
maybe tri or quad..

(for radio - I have FlySky CT6B I bought from RCBazaar, will it be suitable for multirotors?)

I am not sure which board to buy.. KK 5.5 or 2.0 .. please suggest which board will be versatile ..
do I need to buy any additional program board etc. for setting it up or something..

Thanks!

FS-CT6B is suitable for multis, i am using it right now and works great. If you can raise your budget i would suggest you to go with KK2 lcd board. The reason is you can change any setting on the field. No pc required. All required firmwares are already loaded so you can change it without flashing the board.

kk2 is better with auto-leveling and a screen, so that you dont have to connect it to a computer everytime

-Scratch build Hexacopter ( selling the parts) { almost sold}
-9xR - The best RADIO
-ST360quad (sold)
-kk2 (sold)

Don't forget to flash the kk2 with the v1.5. Better auto-leveling and cam gimbal support. My quad flew super stable with the stock PI settings!

Hi guys,

I'm using kk 5.5 with ct6b transmitter.. motor 4 seems to have a lower rpm than others & my quad flips over instead of hovering.. Any suggestions to solve this problem?

That happened to me on a tricopter. Calibrate all ESCs to same settings.
If it doesn't work, Try using a different quad firmware, there are quite a few available.
Also, Find out which axis of motion motor4 flips the quad into and play with it's corresponding gains a bit.
