    Although this post is a year old, I'll provide an update in case anyone stumbles across this..

    I did pick one of these up.   The frame was very well-made and documented, and is *very* sturdy.  Lots of space for electronics and FPV, although not suitable for a gimbal.

    I didn't end up sticking with it because my build didn't fly well, and was quite heavy.  I spent many many hours trying to tune it (This was before Autotune was available).   I think part of the problem is that the rotors are not positioned in an orientation directly supported by APM.   They are not equally spaced and equidistant from a center point.   This could probably be remedied with some source code adjustments, and honestly could probably be tuned out, but I was not interested in pursuing further.  There were other issues with my build, and I decided to start over with a different frame.

    If you're still interested in the answer you can contact a good friend of mine who knows the guys at RC Dudes. I have two of these that I'm building but I'm a newbie. Keith the owner of the youtube site is our resident drone expert and sold me one of the Skeeters I have. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiKvNvHry98nqznYFg1XDXg
