    Thank you, we try to do it as best as we possibly can.. There are still many things to do and even from this frame parts are missing. Like said, limited beta frame production is already running and we have already received few pre-orders of them from our most loyal users. Beta frame shipments should start during next week. After that we wait few weeks to get replies back of design. If no any bigger changes. Next patch will be ordered quite soon.

    Software is already flyable but far from ready. Currently no official estimates on beta release on software but if this our current speed of development continues, I expect it to happen in next month or so. Currently we are developing common libraries and functions that can be used on all ArduXXXX platforms. Eg. ArduPIlot for fixed wings, ArduCopter, ArduHeli and so on. This is a big task for our library guys due everything depends on those and I can say that they are doing great job on it.

    Wiki/repository has already all needed libraries and firmwares for people who cannot wait.. But be careful with that software, I guarantee that there are bugs :P
  • Hi Jani! It looks nice! mine is very similar... when do you think that the beta version of the soft will be available?? :S

    That's looking good. You'll have a winner if you keep in this direction.

    Weight of that setup in picture is 162 grams. Ok it still misses some parts like motor mounts, protective dome but they are not heavy.
  • Looks nice and neat. Wonder, what is the total weight of it?
