1st flight after rasing the props on my homemade quadcopter.

Made a slight improvement in efficiency and now I don't have to worry about the props taking out a wire or hitting the frame.
 
I get about 11-12 minutes but when I built the thing I used carbon fiber sheets that were too thick. (the squares in the center) I plan on building another one soon using all I have learned from this, my first. How to hide another project from my wife :) I do love flying this thing but could have made it a lot lighter.
 
Each quad I build get more streamlined better wiring & generally faster.
Obviously yours is not built for speed but I bet it shifts. Your next flier will probably be a lot cheaper aswell. It still a learning process for me after 18months. I like building as much as flying.
My Mrs thought I was building a bomb at first with all the wire & pdb, esc's. Soldering iron. Battery alarms with digital clocks.
