About Me:

Started building Quadcoppter in dec 2012. The first Q was a DJI 450 with NAZA. In june 2013 I started building a TBS Discovery with arduflyer and gps. Flying missions looks me great.


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

At this moment things are possible I dreamt about in my young years. Flying combined with filming and making missions.
