These have been out for a little while now and i recently got a kit thinking it will
be great fun to mount a cam and do some aerial vids at the field.

So thought i'd share a little run down of what was involved in the build.

Firstly the box. Must say it is packaged very nicely.







what's in the box







assemble landing gear is first step according to the destructions





then move onto each arm. There is a magnet to glue onto a bracket that ends up holdong the electronics cover on.


do X 4



now the central frame

these are tiny screws that hold the spacers



place each arm onto the cut out of the centre hub


screw the top on and you should get this



i realised after the super glue dried, that it leaves white stains on the black plastic. Regular CA didn't

now ready for the electronics. Feed the esc wiring for each motor through the arm and up the centre hub


4 X scorpions sII-2208-1050KV


mount onto end of arm and connect to esc wiring. Note: two wired colour for colour.. 2 wired for opposite rotation


again X4

I then added the prop adapters


mount the supply gyro unit. be mindfall of direction. Mount receiver and wire accordingly


pull the power feeds out the bottom frame and connect bullet terminal adapter


fit props and orientation ball. Note again: there are props A and B for the different rotation.




and then the finished product. You CA washers to the cover and the previously mentioned magnets hold it on quite well



I velcro'd a 3S 2200mah batt to the baseplae

program radio in airplane mode, teach the 4 esc's high/low throttle and have a ball

I'm using the radio at the moment to control hover and cruise mode and have the gear channel assigned to switch between the two

Wow... looks pretty cool. I saw one of them fly in Dayton a couple of weeks ago. I bet you have a blast with it!

Outstanding pictorial! Thank you so much for sharing!

Thanks Scott.

Seems pretty nifty already. Had a little muck around flight in the backyard with super wind happening and it handled it ok. Then today had a fiddle with a few settings and was quite impressed

I saw a You Tube video of one of them with a round "UFO" looking body on it, with lights all the way around it. It looked pretty unique. My grandson seems to think that "I" should have one of them, lol.

Now that sounds cool. Would be awesome at the field. Can see it already.
Take off from where no-ones looking and gently hover it into sight of the masses and have them gasp they saw a UFO.
