Purchased the CW6 with the small wire damper = http://www.uavframe.com/en/uav-mult...lticopter-carbon-fiber-hexa-copter-frame.html

I also purchased a battery tray and the WKM mounting and protection plate. First comment on the quality is WOW, I have had a few frames before and this is head and shoulder in strength and finish than anything i have seen before.

Currently I am waiting on a few parts (ESC's, Batteries and some minor pieces) but so far have completed the mounting and arrangement of the WKM IMU - although I will add more space between the IMU and the Andromeda (http://www.multiwiicopter.com/products/andromeda-v2r1-with-voltage-reg) before I mount on the Y6, and I have wired up the motors and mounted on the booms. I used some wire braid shroud from here http://www.hobbyunicorn.com.au/buy/1m-6mm-yellow-wire-mesh-braid-cable-guard/9556 and it works a treat with some additional heat shrink at each end.

I have an additional top plate coming from Killy to add more space for mounting the RC components and plan on keeping this as clean as I can, very happy so far and the trick is to take your time and double check everything - a very enjoyable process!

The build continues after Killy and multiwiicopter sent some extra parts I needed. Just finished calibrating the ESC's and will finish alignment of motors and finals tomorrow before her maiden flight, all exciting!

Sure looks cool now on the landing frame.
