Were you expecting the Tarantula X6 to be that big?
This guy has some vids on it.

I was expecting it to be bigger than the X5C-1 but I didn't know excatly how much bigger. The size differed depending on where you read it. As it turned out it's 349.25 mm blade center to blade center on opposing blades.
Thanks for the link, looks like some interesting video.

Nice, different. What's that under the motors?
Play Dough?
This is 3d printed plastic, like a few other parts on my quads.
But I will certainly consider your suggestion for next builds

Looks to me to be some sort of laminate to make things look good, and maybe add strength, but I could easily be wrong.

Ah. Sorry for confusion. The body, arms, and props are all made from carbon fiber creating a light weight and durable framework.
The tube that the carbon fiber is wrapped around is only used for vaccum forming the carbon fiber into the shape needed for the prop arms.
Here is a closeup on some of the carbon fiber parts along with one of his buddies...
