Very close to pulling the trigger on this one. Wanted to run the specs by you guys so I don't do something stupid.

-Carboncore 950 y6 frame
-Tarot 5008 340kv motors
-Hobbywing Flyfun 40A opto escs
-WKM
-tmotor 1861 props
-1 or 2 8000mah 6s lipos (preferably 2 for redundancy)
-I'll probably attach some rails to use with my 3 axis gimbal from rotorsandaerialmedia.com.
-auw maybe 19 lbs?

My calculations show that I should be able to lift 45 pounds for an hour and a half, but if I'm a little off then I'm hoping to get 19 pounds for 10 minutes.

What do you think?

Best,

Tom

Couldn't ever get the thing to fly - devoted a lot of time with several test flights. No crashes, but yaw was ridiculous.

Think it may have been the frame which was designed for flat 6 originally.

Moved on to a Tarot flat 6 which crashed in testing because its a crap frame

Finally broke down and bought a s1000. Absolutely amazing machine. I hate DJI as much as the next guy, but this thing is incredible.
