HEXACOPTER BUILD

Ive decided to build myself a Super HexaCopter using the Wookong board

after months of resarch ive came to the conclusion that it was best to build it myself  and so i will.

here i will post pictures and text of my progress

I bought 3 meters of 20 mm Carbon Tube and cut  6 booms of 41cm long
then ive bought the CenterPlate set(round plates in the middle) from the AD6 HL from droidworks so i would have all the right holes etc for aligning the booms.

If i would have wanted to use the clamps from Droidworx to mount the booms it would have cost me 6x 32 euros wich i thought was redicilous so ive bought these for 30 cents a pair :)

They are thicker and i had to modify some of em but they fit real snug and i can use em for my motor mounts too!...wich are also like 35 euros a piece if id buy em from Droidworks.

Center Plate

  

Think ill make Alu motormounts that are attached to the 4 screws with the motor sitting in the middle...

Im looking at the AXI 2826/12 motors spinning 15 or 14 inch props and i think i wanna use Castle Creations ESC's Ice 50  and a WooKong Board and a AV200 gimbal from photohigher...

i havnt gotten these things yet and iam still conentrating on the frame atm..but once done i will be posting my progress on the electronic side of it all

MOTORMOUNT UPDATE!!

recently i came accross these motor mounts!! these were the ones i acctually wanted but could not find...but yet i did find em...and they cost me like 9 euros each..to bad of the ones ive bought before...but they were only 30 cents a pair....so no harm done

Realy like these!!

I did have to make the booms a little bigger using take for the dia of my booms arre 20mm and the mount holes for the booms are 21.5mm but it wont be a problem for i just wrapped some tape arround the end of th booms to make em more thiker.

All my stuff has arrived! very exited!
will upload pictures soon!

here a glance at the motors ill be using

Here's how they look with the 14x5 wooden Xoar Props im gonna be Using

Here's a vid uptill now ...enjoy!

here are the new legs ive made together with a good friend who has a cnc macine and some cool 3d programs to design these kinda things

Finally my Cinestar Gimbal has arrived..this is sooo cool!...only there is allot of wind here in holland

so i cant really test out doors wich is very frustrating...There is no more nice weather here in holland and i think im gonna move within 2 years to a place were there is sun and little wind every day...
