    Hello, My name is John and I have been building and flying multirotors for a couple of years now. Started with a phantom and then built a flame wheel 450, walkera turbo ace x 830 and then a Tarot Ironman 680. Trying to start a business and find that niche thing that people need a UAV for. Hope...
