Hi Tumba, I really liked your Quadcopter project. I want to build a similar one, maybe with FPV.
I'm still a beginner in building, so I wonder if you have any plans for your project or if you could give me some tips.
cheers

Oh thank you.
What do you need:
- circuit diagram ?
- technical drawing ?
- software ?

Currently I build a similar copter (same design) with FPV and GPS and telemetry...
