    I've been tinkering with this for ages and finally got around the flying it for the first time yesterday. The combination of 15inch carbon props, Avroto heavy lift motors, 60amp Mayech SimonK flashed ESC and DJI Wookong is brilliant, flies very smoothly and 2 6S 5000mah batteries.

    The 5D brushless gimbal was built by my friend Andy. It needs tuningĀ  a bit as it started wobbling about as soon as I got flying, but when I got it back to the office I realised the Alexmos board he'd used doesn't have a USB connection but uses a blue tooth adapter instead, which I don't have, so I'll have to wait to see Andy again to alter the gains. Otherwise it was perfect. I've put my Nex5 brushless gimbal back on in the meantime, will put some video up from that when I next fly it.

    Wow, it certainly looks very stable but also very power hungry! What sort of flight times do you get with the setup described?
