haha, i saw that, its pretty neat little frame. too bad you can't 3d print the cameras =P

Reduced the weight and fixed all the electrical bugs (shorts, shorts everywhere). Had to take it apart to do so.

Also fine tuned the PID and rates. Now i feel confident in getting the fpv gear

Sweet!

I have no idea what's going on here. Will your presentation include all the technical details of howbthis works? That'd be awesome!

[zing321]

I can do that. How technical do you want me to get? As you can see up there I didn't code the controller so I can't go really in depth, but I can tell you how the software controls the quad. I can also tell you all the ins and outs of the hardware and how to build a multirotor.

Prepared to look retarded!

Unfortunately the rest of the FPV gear has to come in from Singapore so i wont have the FPV system working by the Presentation

Hey, you can submit this to http://hackaday.io/ and http://www.hackster.io/!

Especially when you have the FPV done :-D
