I started off piecing things together I knew I wanted to use, but do to various components being sold out here and there, I was going to end up ordering from multiple shops. So I ordered the Armattan Marmotte kit from Armattan directly (~$310), and actually saved some cash. The low deck caused me some problems with how I wanted to carry the batteries, right now it's setup for the power leads to go up/over the battery, their pigtail was too short for the Tattus. The way I did the wires, I can easily have them go along the side of the battery instead, should I change my mind.

There's more artistic freedom and..

With more efficient motors and frame designs it's now possible to push the envelope much further. This guide will walk you through the process of building a micro long range quad capable of flying 8-30 minutes and more than 4km. The build is moderately difficult, but with the right tools and steady hands..
