"Thank you for the post! It is great to see the vision.
My vote for most needed: architecture, sensor items
Most awesome upgrade: RTOS and ARM - come on Arduino, baby!!!
Neatest cool feature: heavier camera integration (scripted and otherwise) -…"

"Thanks for the extra info!"
"I read your build post, but the frame makers don't say much. Can you tell me the diameter of your center plate?"
"Bill: not sure how much falls in your "rc gear" or your background
You might add power distribution board and batteries, battery charger to your list.
Maybe camera gimbal, camera, sonar ... Laser beams, teleporter, time machine
Chris mentioned…"

"Thank you. This was helpful. I was trying to find the diameter of an octo power distribution board and you gave it to me. I am also trying to figure out what the minimum/normal/maximum diameter for an octo center plate would be for the…"
"Thanks Ellison. I was not aware of that ESC discussion taking place within this thought process. It is hard for me to keep track of all the discussions that have taken place in each forum. I posted it because I think it is a pertitent item to…"
"Cool stuff. I think the multicopter world needs the entry level "addiction copter". While awesome, I don't think APM as FCB or many frames fill that piece. I think that is where people go after the addiction bug has bit. I think you are showing an…"
"As I was doing more research on this item, I noticed that a lot of esc run at 50hz. So, I think the next bump would be a consistent 50hz or 20 Ms. Going faster probably wouldn't see any benefit because the esc could be the bottleneck. Just another…"
"Congrats! Like others, always interested in specs to go with video. Frame, motor, prop, esc, battery, etc. Thanks!"
"@Robero -- Thank you for the video post. Looks pretty solid. What is the cubic cm volume of this entire design? What is the weight? I saw that the dimensions are about 12.6. Do you have the exact motor to motor spacing (cm)? The unibody design…"
"You will have less vibrations with your motor prop setup which is good for video and some other things ... But I have seen those wobbles before ... It could be the pilot or partly the setup. You might want to try smaller props and change the pitch…"
"@Michael -- Wow. That is fantastic. Even when I looked at the picture, I didn't realize that the whole thing was 3d printed. That is great. Are you using ABS or PLA or something else for material? I have not worked with these 3d printed…"
"I was starting to draft designs for the whole thing but still undecided on where to send my files to get done and what rapid prototyping material/process (polyjet, etc.) to use. While I have some cool ideas on designs, I question the…"
Hi DIYDrones Community! I am looking to put together a comprehensive post with links to all subject matter (starting with very Newbie all the ways to very technical). The idea is NOT to give the answers in this post, but to link to great…
":) ... yeeeaaahhhhh :) ... I will do that. I will try to think of the best way to do each question to have it organized and be helpful to others. If I open a new thread (likely), I will make sure that I PM you the link so that I can get some…"
"Thank you Ellison! I am of the same understanding now. We agree that it is currently at 50ms. However, due to limited resources on the APM (CPU) we should not make it a shorter interval and it also seems sufficient for now. With APM 2.0 and the…"
