Vortex hexa XL

[TommyzT]

Hello!
I thought to share my Vortex Hexa XL building here.
Parts:
Vortex Hexa XL frame
Tiger motors MT2814 770kv
CF propps 12"
Hobbywing platinum 40A pro ESC´s
DJi Wookong
Gimbal (not sure yet)

It has finally start arriving parts to the frame so I have started to mount the motor mounts on the arms..



And without the center plate and the rest, there's not much to build.
So I have balanced the motors and made a video of that:

(just example motors in vid)

To be continued.

Looks nice, Tommy. I need to have a go at my motors one day with this app... thanks for sharing!

Got it!

Now I've finally got the frame. Looks really good.
I started off by look at the layout of the ESC's and installed a pbd:

I twisted the motorcables to reduce the electromagnetic field:

I did not take so many pictures during assembly because I just wanted to get finished.
So I had no camera near me!

The obligatory maiden movie comes up soon.
