XY8 Coaxial Quad w/ Mikrokopter FC 2.5 and Mōvi M5

Bartman

Welcome to MultiRotorForums.com!!
Hi everyone,

This heli has been sitting for a while now and I've got some bills to pay so it's time it go to someone that will put it to work. I built this to be ready to work higher end video gigs starting in the Spring of 2014 but that's about when the FAA clamped down and I decided I had had enough. It's very low time, the Movi was used early on but even it is very low time also.

The build was documented in this thread;

http://multirotorforums.com/threads/multi-impossible-mōvi_m5-mk-build-and-review.18070/

The frame is my XY8, coaxial quadcopter design with carbon fiber frame plates, aluminum stand-offs, all stainless hardware, high quality carbon fiber telescoping arms and dual battery mounting spots (actually room for four batteries when Mōvi isn't attached. Standard fixed landing gear and mounting hardware can also be included.

The telescoping arms are meant to make it easier to transport but not meant to be extended and collapsed daily for an extended period of time, maybe it would take it, maybe not. The natural layout and size of the XY8 format means even a big heli like this can sit on the back seat of an average sedan for transport. I'll also include the travel clamps I made that lock the heli's arms to the frame of the Mōvi so the weight and strain of travel isn't placed on the gimbal's PAN motor. LED's are on the back arms only.

The mounting system for the Mōvi was custom designed and made for this helicopter build. All original parts that came with the Movi are included including the Spektrum DX8 transmitter. I can also include my trusty JR 9503 if you want it to be Ready-To-Fly

The GH4 in the photos isn't included although I suppose it could be.

The flight control system and motor controllers on the helicopter are all Mikrokopter; FC2.5, Navi 2.0, GPS 2.0, BL 3.x's. The motors are Tiger MN4012-11 (400kv), props are Xoar 15" and I'll include plenty of spares with the sale. The flight control stack also includes an I2c isolation board that breaks down the I2C stream into individual signals making wiring of the separate BL's easier. Everything is set up to run on two 6S flight packs (I used anywhere from dual 6000 to 11,000mah) except the Mōvi which uses it's own 4S packs (3 included).

I'm not even sure what to ask for this. If you're interested please post here or click my username to start a private conversation with me. I'm going to have to spend some time to update everything and to do a few test flights before selling it so this won't be a quick transaction unless you really know Mikrokopter and need it yesterday.

I'D REALLY PREFER TO SELL THIS TO SOMEONE WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY'RE GETTING INTO AND HOW TO OPERATE, MAINTAIN, AND REPAIR IT. I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO TEACH A BUYER EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT MIKROKOPTER ALTHOUGH A MOTIVATED SELF STARTER WILL BE ABLE TO FIGURE IT OUT.
