Some may call me crazy, some pretentious, but I am and will always be a Star Trek fan. I have taken the idea of a quad or even an octocopter and designed a eight foot by four foot model of the USS Enterprise. What i need to know is, what motor/rotor combination do I need with using a 16,000 mAh Lipo battery. Keep in mind that this will weigh about 30 lbs. Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.IMAG0124_1.jpg IMAG0125.jpg IMAG0126.jpg IMAG0127.jpg
 
As a huge Trekker, I would LOVE to see this thing fly!! My only complaint is the use of the JJ-verse design instead of the classic. :)
 
True, and I agree but, the newer style gives me a larger surface area on the aft nacelles, whereas the older style is really narrow. That was my sole reason for choosing the newer style.
 
I was looking at putting four motor/rotors on the saucer and two on each aft nacelle. Making it an unconventional octo-copter. Anyone have any tips on motors and other equipment. The equipment I'm looking at is, (8) Phoenix-25 ESC, Graupner MZ-24 HoTT Transmitter, Graupner GR-24L HoTT Receiver, (2) Quadropower 16,000 mHa (6S) Lipo Battery, (8) T-Motor Heavy Lift Motor MN4012, DJI Naza-M Multirotor w/GPS (V2). If you guys see something that doesn't work, please let me know. I want all my ducks in a row before I order anything.
