There are two options you have as beginner or fpv enthusiast. The easy way to go for an fpv rtf (read to fly) model like a DJI Phantom or the hard way for a custom made model with much more benefits. The hard way can bring you to hell for spending a few times more money like the rtf thing but can bring you more flight time and much more options in the end. For my opinion I want to go the custom way. This is not for everyone but with my future project everyone can benefit for the advantages of a lightweight and versatile FPV UAV. At the moment I am fghting with y new Xaircraft Stella gimbal which is the most conceived part for flying I ever had in my hands. Stay tuned there will be some photos here soon.

New Poject – The Tick (German: Zecke)
Because of the shape of the new hexa style copter. I gave it the name of an insect – The Tick.(EDIT – Comment from Ronny: ticks have 8 legs not 6 =accepted but the name is branded right now)
First parts arrived already. The flight control was ordered from second hand and is a DJI Naza V2.
The next parts should arrive Monday.
Its one of the latest and the lightest gimbal to purchase at the moment – a xaircraft stella gimbal, which will be modified to fit the UAV. Plans are ongoing to make everything the most lightweight and versatile hexacopter the world has seen until today 😉 .
To start everything from scratch I decided to go for a complete new setup. My old and heavy used Turnigy 9x transmitter has already some defects from all the travelling around the world so I am hunting for a Taranis X9D+ remote. (See the cable ties to hold it together)
The time will tell me where the journey will end but I think I am on the right way to bring „The Tick“ to life.

This is how to get to the japanese knifeshop in Koriyama 🙂 it is a nice small shop. The owner is very kind. I bought a knife from seki (gifu prefecture near osaka, this is where the best blacksmith are working, even the samurais katanas came from there since hundreds of years) there, including lifelong sharpening service at his shop. Whenever i don’t plan to come back soon ^^
