I agree with @Spork its a very neat build. A review and a short video would be interesting to hear your thoughts.

Like the cable socks, but not ready to solder to PCBs yet. One day :)

Bookmarked this thread. Thanks.

I read about a frequency based targeted blasts. Although the laser beam did sound very James Bond :) Following a quick google, a frequency based option. https://www.droneshield.com/dronegun-tactical/

Nice design. Like it.

@mozquito1 Just trying to find more arms. :) I have an old computer fan I have designs on to clear the solder smoke. Thinking about mounting one back to front pointing into a flexible duct to act as an extractor fan. Then again an inline fan is not that expensive...

:) I was flying my toy drone today. Improving slowly but still having to think hard.

I agree with Torc. Good bars I have them on my pushbike.

LoL Missed that banter. I would use whatever colour you can see best in your area. Not crashing has to be the priority :) You still need to open the air vents on your green version. I use my green props as a reference.

? @RENOV8R Each joint has an individual heat shrink added and the yellow heat shrink over the top to tidy it up. Starting to realise why most builders use masking tape to hold the cables down.

I have these currently for my quad build and I would like to reuse them if possible in my Hex build to keep costs down. Either frame is only a small Hex so the I hope the motors I have would be ok with a couple added. Clearly flighttime would be lower but it would do to prove she can fly.

and finally off to a shaky start. Plumbing yesterday seemed easier. :) After all the prep, I started soldering at the wrong end of the drone! Hence the added notes so I can double check. I think I got lucky :) Worst case it could be soldering practice. Quite why it feels like rocket science...

Seems John Lewis in the UK have them due in. https://www.johnlewis.com/ryze-tello-drone-powered-by-dji/p3455403

Same problem on the east coast of the UK where we are giving in to the sea. Unless it is high value it is not considered cost effective to save. Easy to say I appreciate and not what you want to hear if you live on the coast. But unfortunately the only real practical option.

Welcome to the forum from me.

Thanks for the info @RENOV8R I will add those to the wish list. I think I had better finish drone 1, before I buy any more bits or I may get questions in the house ;) Oh for unlimited money and time. :)

I suspect it may fly lopsided. @Spork

Postman came today. £2.85 What's not to like Even if she never flys, it will be fun to dream.

Looks like an interesting drone for £42. I look forward to your thoughts when it arrives.

I am having a go at building to try to learn more about how the drones work. Rebuilding or modifing my drone is close to the same feeling for me. Fun and learning are close companions for me.
