X8 Conversion kit for 3DR quad

Good morning ppl. I am excited to see the release of the rtf x8. I have a question. Is there plans to release a conversion kit to make my 3dr quad an x8? If I could shell out the $1000 bucks for the rtf, I would. Since that isn't possible, upgrading my existing quad will be in my price range. If no kit is coming, is there a PDF file that exist to show me how to do it myself?

  • I suspect that you could build much of what is needed yourself, or hack it together, without too much trouble. 

    • I guess the parts would be available in hardware stores. Just need to find a replacement for the co-axial mounts.

  • Anyone know if 3dr will be releasing a X4 to X8 conversion kit not including the electronics? All you would need would be:

    8x Co-axial motor mounting plates

    16x 25 mm stainless steel bolts

    16x 19 mm hollow spacers

    8x 6 mm steel bolts

    16x Metal hex nuts

    Other than the electronics.

    If not does anyone know where we can get these parts to convert the X4 into a X8 in the future?
