Rcexplorer style quadcopter

[paulshort]

Im currently building an aerial photography quadcopter in similar style to the RCexplorer tricopter. I have ordered 4 booms and all the screws and cables (to save time) I recently helped build a CNC router so will be cutting out the top and bottom plates. I will be basing by design off this

as it is pretty much exactly what I had in mind. Motors will be tbs 900kv v2 and escs probably TBS bullet proof (as I already have both of these)

Anyway I will post an update once parts arrive.

Hehe whats next chain drive using a turbine and making it heavy lift!!! Or flat out going straight to short drive ride-able flights to do store runs and get back and forth from work. That is a big one for sure. Cant wait to see this fully built.

Well I Cnc cut the frame. I can post plans if anyone is interested. Turned out really nice. It will be carrying a 3 axis gimbal for aerial photography. I will post some pics tomorrow
