Arducopter Hexa

I was looking at the hexa frame beta here:http://store.fahpah.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=achxgrmv101Could anyone with experience with hexa setups tell me, is it possible to lift a DSLR such as a cannon 5D and maintain usable flight times with a setup like this?I was intending on using the standard motors etc. That come in the arducopter partial kit but have no idea about payload possibilities.Also, with the current code release, what benefits/problems does a hexa config present??

  • Norf is flying his hexa on the ArduPirates code.  Here is a video of his initial flight.  I think that the arms of the Arducopter are too light weight for heavy lifting.  There are plenty of hexa frame options available or you can DIY.

  • Can hexa still flyable if one prop fails?
