Finally got around to taking pics of my two quads.

The first is my original unit. The frame is an X525 from a kit from GoodLuckBuy. The kit came with everything including a KK board, but I built it with the APM instead. I have since replaced the motors, landing gear, and ESCs. Current setup:

X-Quad

Exceed 1050KV motors

10 x 4.5 CF props

HobbyKing F20 ESCs flashed with SimonK firmware

APM 2.0 with on-board GPS disabled

External MediaTek GPS with backup battery board (JDrones)

3DR 915MHz telemetry

FrSky receiver with voltage monitor

An extremely classy stack cover from a CD tower

and a Ping pong ball "stinger" for orientation

Generally fly on 3S 2500 mAH battery for about 9 minutes flight, but can double up or go with 5000 for app. 15 minutes flight time.

My second one just got in the air today. Put together out of a broken, second hand CF (maybe fake?) BumbleBee frame which I repaired (handy to know how to work with composites).

Exceed 950KV motors

10 x 4.5 CF props

RCTimer 20A ESCs

APM 2.0 with no on-board GPS

External UBLOX Lea-6 GPS

3DR 915MHz telemetry

FrSky receiver with voltage monitor

Another extremely classy stack cover from a CD tower

and a dual Ping pong ball rear end for orientation

Flight times appear to be comparable with other quad so far.

Both fly pretty well, but have very different feels. I think the BumbleBee is going to get a gimbal and a GoPro some day as it appears to be the more stable unit.
