WALKERA NEWS: We recently looked for a low cost, quick to assemble quadcopter, to be modified with FPV gear, something to travel with, overseas on rescue projects. So we purchased the Walkera QR X350 which can be assembled in 2 minutes, with no tools on hand. Today, our SAR teams were informed of another exciting version of the 350 size, the QR X350 Pro. We have included some photos of the final development and will update again. If you have any questions, feel free to chime in, they will be shared with Walkera. We have our own list of questions.
