After Many weeks of designing, Cutting, testing then redesigning, recutting and retesting we are happy with what we have created....

We call it the Razor; a Quadcopter made entirely from 1,5mm GFK. We wanted to create something that caught the eye, something different but at the same time keeping all the key factors in mind. We have test flown it with Ardupilot mega 1 using the default PID settings and it is solid as a rock. ( Not that we was expecting anything less from Ardupilot mega) We have pre drilled holes for APM 1 and 2, Xbee kit, Sonar and the power distro board.

The hood on the top is removable by sliding it back, keeping the Electronics protected but still giving easy access.

  The frame is CNC cut by ourselves in germany.

Hey guys,

We have just been setting up and testing a APM with our Scorpion tricopter, Stabilise mode works very well and we have tested loiter with some sucsess, It needs a sonar sensor i think to get a more accurate altitude reading, it is also not very presice on the location, it will drift for quite a few meters. Also while testing auto mode it has a tendancy to lean backwards and slowly drift way. Any ideas?

More testing to come

Here is a video:

Any advice welcome :)
