This is the second flight of the Diydrones Hexcopter. I`m using two 3S-2250mah batties ganged together untill the new 3S-5000mah packs show up in the mail. Using a JR 11X and a Spektrum 9 channel receiver. I had to link up the mission planner on the desk top because the two older laptops would not work. I still have to figure it out.   I found that the hex is not too hard to fly, maybe because I have some experience with RC helis. I still have to add the different flight modes.    http://youtu.be/7TAIk5SqdAA  http://youtu.be/uiPbJueQ-Jk

Hurrah for a Carolina (to the North) Arducotper!

There are a few ACs around in South Carolina also.

There is nothing like a backyard for flight testing but.. watch out for that Crepe Myrtle.

I chopped up one of my Dogwood trees once. The tree always wins.
