what is the difference between the elite and the basic?

The Elite is considered version 2 (.v2) and it a different design from the basic. Take a lot and the images of both to see the changes.

I had both, and can say the Elites are better construction, smoother motion on the twist, and the grips are made of a spiral pattern rubber that I'm not sure I like better than the Basics, but they are still comfortable enough to make the Elites a much better product overall.

I have both. Both work well but are not interchangeable. The back to basics holds more than the magic bullet and I believe the gear system will probably hold up longer.

The elite is built from heavy duty square tube steel frame, the other one just uses steel wire on top of the frame . If weight or ware is a concern go elite.

The Elite series has an integrated overhead LED lighting system. Elite ~= E-Light

The copter itself is all the same AR Drone 2.0. The difference between the different packages is the regular AR Drone 2.0 comes with a single 1000mah battery. The Elite is the same as that except you have different body color choices of camouflage and two black and two white props. The Power Edition comes with two 1,500mah batteries, a full set of red, blue and black propellers. The GPS edition includes the GPS flight recorder. In a nutshell the copter itself is the same for all with the only difference being the included accessories / colors options

Hi Nancy. I don't know the answer to that. What I do know is that the Elite v2 is not the Elite and although I ordered two "Elites" they both turned out to be v2s. Seems the Elite, which was an incredible keyboard, is no more.

Not sure what the difference is but I love the Classic! I use it all the time.

I believe the basic functions are the same - but you should check on that. The biggest difference I saw was that the face was black, and I prefer the white face - and I got mine for a deployment to Afghanistan, go figure. Anyway, that was the biggest difference I saw, and why I did not go with the "military" version. Hope that helps.

The only difference I can see is the look and the price. We bought the Top Star and it has ran great for us. we use it once a day. At the point and time it was the cheaper one of the two.

Sorry I do not know. I could guess, but that is not going to help you. How about soft is soft and elite is purified more. And I said I wasn't going guess.

I believe the only difference between the 3 versions is the amount of included access time on Ancestry.com. FTM 2008 Basic is 1 month; FTM 2008 Deluxe is 3 months; FTM 2008 Platinum is 6 months. Now, if this full access to EVERYTHING (don't know if it is but since it says premium access, I would think so) I pay $300 a year for full access to both US and International records. If the premium access is limited to just the US, it's still $180 a year. Therefore, FTM 2008 Platinum, with the current rebate offered, is a great deal for 6 months free access that is worth anywhere between $90 to $150 in REAL dollars! And believe me, with access to those billions of records at Ancestry's web site, you are guaranteed to find many of your ancestors! I would jump at this deal if I could, but I already have a yearly subscription and I'm using FTM 2008.

I think the Starter Edition was more simplified. It had just what required. The Deluxe has more categories than I needed. It will work on 8 I am sure. It should tell you requirements.

You answered it Wil. The weight expansion is the only difference I can see. The classic tops out at 70lbs whereas the elilte can top out at 130lbs

If I remember correctly, I think we got the elite because the motor was stronger. Compare the descriptions to confirm.

Deluxe model. Honestly I wouldn't waste your money on the basic one- I had it twice and the handle broke both times. The deluxe one is so much better and not much more money. The motor is nice to have a well

hi! I'm fairly certain the elite has extra gadget options (you can hook up a heart rate monitor to the elite) and tracks more via the gps. Like altitude, etc. Check there to find the differences.

the only difference I have found if the foam. I tried out a friends basic model and then bought the one with the foam as I have a very bad back. I have not been sorry for spending the extra money. Good luck on your purchase.
