Greetings.


I had ambitious goals for this copter but I don't think I'm going to find the time to complete them. In light of this, I'm thinking of selling my arducopter if I can get the right price for it. First things first, this quad is already fully built and I've gotten a decent amount of the way through the tuning process. Controlled hover and flight is very stable and I've been working on the guided and loiter PID's lately. In loiter it locks into a location with about +/-5m accuracy although at times there has been some drift that I've been trying to tune out.


What this means is that you are getting a fully built and ready-to-fly copter. This guy has less than 10 hours on him and has never seen a crash. I am attaching the invoice of the parts I originally bought, all of them are going to be shipped with the quad if I sell it because I never needed any of them. RTF copters are going for $799 here: http://www.udrones.com/product_p/acrtf2.htm. I'm selling this for the same cost of the individual parts; keep in mind that if you buy these same parts from 3d robotics you'll be paying tax and shipping so this is considerably less than buying the parts new, but you get an already built copter! My price is $575. I will accept payment through paypal but will consider other methods. I am located in Anaheim, CA, so if you live in the LA Basin let me know and I may be able to meet with you to show you the copter in person.


This price will include one fully assembled copter minus the receiver and battery, 8 spare props and 1 set of replacement landing gear. At the bottom of this post is a pasted version of the original invoice from 3DR. Attached are some pictures of the copter (it's configured in '+' mode; the yellow zip ties indicate the 'front' arm).

For the cautious buyer, you can refer to my accounts on rcgroups, helifreak, runryder, and ebay. All of them are under the tag 'neonbjb'. On each of these I have selling history with RC gear and helis and can verify with a PM if you would like.
