UAVFrame or carbon Tube frame

Hi

My next hexacopter shlud be something professional. I wand an uavframe or a self made carbon tube frame.

The goal is to build a hexacopter to carry a camera like the canon g11. The diameter should be 80cm.

Uavframe: one peace carbon,700€, very stable, no work to do
Carbon tube frame: cheaper, not as stable, many work to do,

Can you please help me in deciding what is better?

very nice!

to you have detail fotos? how to you mount the motors on the tubes? or are they box shape carbon sticks?

For me the carbon tubes of the frame needs to be at least 15mm in diamter. So the question is if the uavFrame is worth the money?
