Heavy-Lift HexaCopter Fast Forward Flight With 4kg Payload

[andreluispaulo]

What is the battery used and time of flight with all this weight?

[noxnflame]

That is the coolest sound I have ever heard!

[cclayhammer]

DAYUM!! That motherfucka can outperform my Brookstone Parrot AR Drone. Where can I buy this version of the Hexacopter?

[Basketball4life383]

@cclayhammer Its designed to cary navy cameras into the air to get cool shots and they cost about $4000. I recommend sticking with the AR Drone.

[spacemanspiff2012]

whoa! That thing rocks!

[Paxmax]

plenty of power to spare too!

[hobrandy]

Perfekte Landung!

[acerkiwi]

Hmmmm, scaled up to full size turbo-electric.......

[acerkiwi]

you can build it for about $2k.

[reticulan5]

I love this but I hear it costs like 10,000 dollars.Is that right ?

[superjaykramer]

Very Cool, what sort of stabilization or control system are you using?

[brejso]

@superjaykramer He's using his own controller. KK is quite wellknown

Read his forum thread and you'll get all the specs

[MrLloyd54321]

Very nice.

[highlander99999]

nice drone

[mjkrader]

love the work youve done. really nice stuff. was wondering what part of the world you live in.

[ervinsilicvr]

Great work, please can you share specification: motors, props and which ESC. This looks like real aerial photo platform!

[Lithoushine]

if for some reason one of the motors died or you spun a prop off in mid flight, would you still be able to control it? that would be a really cool test

[brejso]

@Lithoushine The more motors you have - the less sensitive the copter gets.

A tricopter wpuldn't be flyable if one of the motors failed.

An octacopter would probably be flyable if two motors failed.

[matwelli]

very nice work

[kyrkbymannen]

That was amazing!! Both the payload, the vessel and piloting skills.. i love this!

[SvenOkonomi]

I bet that absolutely destroyed your flight time. :P Quite a bit of power there, nice!

[MadGilly]

That thing looks rock solid ! Hats off to your skills ;)

[chrisjdoran]

Wow i actually thought you were heading up for a flip :)

[gjferg]

Incredible!

When you going to build yourself an HD camera? :D

[Skydive4ever]

That's nuts man, cool :-)

[shaneeeeak]

[randyneighbour]

[RCNEWStv]

[tjtg]
