Hi guys I trolled the Russian site again and put the the numbers I could get in the comments on on vis astas 125 minute site blog I also got some other interesting information . Have a Great Day!
A quad has four motors.... Sorry, couldn't resist a straight line...
I use a hex over a quad for its lifting capacity, I plan to carry a camera and gimbal system. I also feel that the hex is a more stable and safe platform. I had a prop failure at 100ft and was able to control the craft back to the ground. If that happened to a quad, I would have a box of parts.

Further to this (with aerial photography in mind):
Are Hexa's more stable?
As good motors/ESC's/props are so reliable nowadays, is the redundancy of the two extra motors really that important in a hexacopter?
Will a quad using the same electrical power (watts) as a hexa have the same lifting power of a hexa?
Or if for the same lifting capablity are hexa's more efficient than quad's?
Any other reasons not to choose a hexa over a quad?
