    Foldable Y6 XL

    Great, I've been making some drawings for an Y6 frame too. Mine is going to be built in aluminium. I'm not sure about the final diameter. For now, it is about 52 cm (450 mm between axes).

    Q4 Y6 frame: I need details

    Hi Sportcam, I wouldn't dare to "copy" such a complicated frame. I know that it would me less expensive to buy it than to waist meterials and time to try do reproduce it. What I meant was to buil my version in that style. This means to do something with a core with similar volumes and geometry...

    Q4 Y6 frame: I need details

    Hi Ovdt, I would be grateful if you can find me something. I own a xaircraft x650.

    Mikrokopter or Ardupilot

    I also would be very interest to know detaisl of your setup. But you are right. I bought me a xaircraft x650 because I didn't have money for more. And bought it because I'm new to all this and didn't have the experience to build a craft combining several brands and solutions. But that is my...
