    Just been through 3 international flights with 2 4S 5000mah batteries in my carry-ons. There was one swabbing for illegal substances but otherwise had no problem. They have posters everywhere showing battery capacity limits for carryons but none actually checked them as long as you don't put them in check in baggage.

    Think you can break 30 m/s?

    I'm curious how long multirotors can keep up those speeds.

    As far as Y6 speed, they are faster than a quad because of the extra power. I think our limitation is software as of now, but that mainly effects Auto mode. We are working on testing the latest code, which allows for much higher speeds.

    I was very impressed to. I am really starting to come around to the Y6 concept, especially after hearing how much time they put into optimizing the motor propeller combination.

    They fold very well and have PLENTY of power to lift a camera and/or some extra batteries.

    How fast can they go?

    Someone else purchased it for me, but it appears to be a "Samsonite 1910" model.

    Awesomeness. Are you guys changing the centre plate as well to differ from the hex?

    If you look closely, you can see the new prototypes of our dedicated Y6 frames in my bag. We are putting on the finishing touches now. Stay tuned!

    Christiaan,

    It's not on the store yet, but soon!

    Why can't I buy the Y6 as a kit (maybe I am just not looking at the right place) all I can find is the upgrade kit from the hex.
