Installed JSt connector on the Extension-PCB - Done! ESC´s wires removed and installed power cables - Done! Solder engine wires - Done! Extra dumper to make more room to the ESC´s coolers - Done!. Regards, Jose Luis

After install the arms into the center-plate and glue aluminum ESC Cooler there is too many wires so I decide shortening the wires where they connect to the ESC's. Like Droid suggestion I´ll solder motor wires direct to BL's. I must admit that was quiet challenge put all parts of the frame...

Today I install the Aluminum ESC Cooler for all BLs, my questions is how good is to have it? From all build log´s that I have found seems not everyone are using coolers, it is bad choice? I decide go for it, the BLs will be happy with that I guess. Regards, Jose Luis

Today was not a productive day, I just have fixed the boom with the blue LED that was wrong mounted, thanks to redridinghood. I had to flip the LED to the other side of the boom. Also I have run some brushless tests to see if they are working fine before install than into the center plate and...

Thanks Dave for the advise, yes I know what you mean specially when we are talking about lots of vibrations. Maybe I´ll change after identified the engine wire positions. Regards, Jose Luis

Hi gadgetkeith, Yes you are right it is celestron CGE Pro tripod, on top of it there is a 200mm Newtonian telescope. There is my shack and also my astronomical observatory. Regards, Jose Luis

Good eyes redridinghood, thanks for warning me. I mounted the boom reversed like the two holes on the engine side. Regards, Jose Luis

Yes you are right, it is hard to stick on that surface. What I found is the Turnigy Heat Shrink Tube 25mm Transparent on HK store and this heat shrink is a clean and good solution also to protect those LED´s. here is the link...

LED´s installation to four arms. Done!

Wire Mesh Guard Black to protect the engines and light cables. Done!

I was reading the DW instructions how to assemble the engine mount and I realize that there is no room to install the bolts to hold the engine on the boom after fix the brushless into the engine mount disks. So it was necessary take all four bolts from the brushless and install the two big bolts...

Before install the Leds in the arms I put some threadlocker on all four bolts that hold the brushless on the engine mount disks.

GPS Shield Everything comes easy and clean. Done! My goal for tomorrow is finish the two lights for the back arms and than start install the brushless in the arms. Regards Jose Luis

Finally after log wait for my orders get clearance from Brazilian customs I have everything I need to start my build process. Today I made 24 short cable with bullet connectors for all eight BL. My first impression was that the cable 12AWG is too large/big for it but I did not have any other so...

I received the Droidworx AD8 HL and for my surprise it is V3 which have some improvements. I can wait to receive the motors and start build the frame and see the real size of it. I have been reading a lot about jeti telemetry but I not 100% sure if the Duplex TU2 2.4GHz will fit in the futaba...
