Hex Sex

At the first time I saw a photo of the Tomoquads Evo-H hexacopter, I fell in love with it.
So I did the unescapable and got a frame and build it...
Planning on painting the Foxeer camera purple and use green propellers, I decided not to that after all. My Tomoquads Trident stretched plus allready has that color scheme. I think it looks more playfull with the blue camera together with the yellow props. But maybe I will.
I did (later).
It flies so smooth and steering is very precise, a joy to fly.

I did some speedruns at 6:00

Makes me want to build one! Not that I can get even close to such a great job!

How does it feel compared to the quad? Any problems because it is a hex (sex 😂)?

It handles so good, just point it and it goes.
Building is a bitch, but if you take your time, the end result is very satisfiying.

Mar 04, 2021

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone!
