    Little by little it is getting closer to its first flight, that is if it will fly.

    Well, that was the idea originally but when I had trouble programming the ESC's I got frustrated and took the whole thing apart. It kept on flipping over on take off. All the motors were spinning the right way and the compass and GPS were calibrated correctly. Of course a couple days after taking the project the part I figured out where I had gone wrong. I am kind of kicking myself for giving up too quickly but I would not have trusted a real camera on that thing. Even without flying at the nuts and bolts kept on coming apart. I do however I plan on removing the booms and making a smaller quad without so many bolts. I will use resin epoxy to hold it together. But check out what I just got in the mail today .
