Ive flown it quite a few times, you should really order at least 2 extra sets of landing skids though (or use the metal ones they offer instead) because until you get good with it, they break easy. Other then that I love it! I actually ordered 2 so id have a backup.....but it's proved indestructible! Today I thought it was toast! but no damage! I did drill a hole for the antenna, and made a stack to mount the APM and electronics.
Ill have to post some pics. I actually ordered the legs to mount on the motor mounts, but my camera would have hit the ground so I made some legs that mount on the outside so it doesnt have to land on the skids. It kept tipping over and breaking blades too. not a design flaw mind you, Im just not a good enough pilot to 1. not land too hard and break them, and 2. tip it over when taking off/landing.
ITs the best frame Ive ever used actually! That dome protects all the electronics. even my ESC's are under it, with wires to the motor routed through the tubes.
I just ordered one that i am waiting to arrive soon. once arrived i will fit my APM 2 and we start from there. in fact i like to excahnge some ideas together. Have you managed to fly it yet?. any success?
