Couldn't wait for the s1000 so we decided to build one using aluminum arms and some g10 frames.


On the left is my trustee fixed 1000mm octocopter which hauled zenmuse since late 2012. On the right is the fully folded octocopter.

Flight maiden was successful. Retracts will be the next phase, and then adapting a z15 gh3.

Cool stuff! What are your plans for the retracts??? Does s800's retracts handles that much weight on trustee fixed 1000mm(Considering your copter is fully loaded)?
