hexacopter - only frame - : 2499 €, excl. vat
octocopter - only frame - 3199€ excl. vat.
It includes motor and pulp
Two achilles heels in monocoques (and yes we do sell one, so we do know): Thermal build up and radio absorption.
Yeah, I could see how what looks like the non CF top would be ok for GPS, but for RC, VTx and telemetry, antennas would somehow need to be placed on the outside. Possible problem also for the baro if there isn't any air pressure equalization ...
Very pretty hand laid CF multi copter frame.
There were some even more expensive similar frames introduced here (and elsewhere) a few years ago.
Probably makes sense for some pro uses, but mishaps are going to be very expensive and in spite of solid design, and clever removable arms, the central (expensive) pod still seems extremely vulnerable in the event of a crash.
And the comment about heat sinking the ESCs being secret is utter nonsense, especially when they are selling frame only and you will have to mount your own components anyway.
The fact is though a lot of commercial non-open products are introduced here and this is a novel and very well made design so I for one am very happy to see it here, it definitely kicks things up a notch.
Best regards,

Nonetheless, lovely looking frame. Price seems in line with the very exotic formed carbon fiber frame.
I am sorry some of the technical Details are our secret
Btw - how are you managing the thermal load of the 6 ESC's, FC, BEC's, VTX and battery? I can't see any heatsinks on yours (Ours are built into the leg mounts).
Eye watering ... And the detachable arms are a major plus ...
Would be nice if you could provide English subtitles in your youtube videos ... ;) and more details on the arms/center plate electrical connections.
yes, a lot of details, a lot high quality, and no cheap materials.
eveything rock solid. and a lot of excelent details.
but not for everyone, yes that is true !
EEK! Lovely, very lovely but yegods that's expensive. If you ever have a 95% sale let us know :)
