hi

i designed frame for Y6 hexacopter and i developed some techniques to cut carbon with dremel, you can see my basic dremel setup and tool that i used.

advantage of this design, foldable, lightweight ( 1.4kg frame include electric and battery 3s 6000mah)
flight time nex 5 with 3axis brushless gimbal 12min
flight time gopro 3+ with 3axis gimbal 20min

i use 15 x 5.2 propeller with 3S 6000mah but the best setup is 14 x 5.5 on 4S (more lift and more autonomy)

all parts are from hobbyking
bill of matereil:

6 x esc hobbyking blue serie 30A

hi and sorry for writing in french:
Je suppose que tu est français? j'adore ton installation avec le Dremel, j'en possède un moi aussi, mais je n'ai pas de colonne. quel model a tu acheter? le system de socle avec recuperation des poussière c'est du fait maison? j'aimerai bien en savoir car sa m'intéresse beaucoup ton system, et le y6 est magnifique... chapeau!

salut, la colonne de dremel tu peux la trouver sur Amazon sous le nom (Dremel 220-01 Rotary Tool Work Station) il coûte pas chere, et le socle c'est fais maison juste un morceau de foam que j'ai rendu étanche avec le socle de la dremel voir photo du petit schéma, si tu as d'autres questions n’hésite pas

Very nice Frame!
Any chance you are going to release the "schematics" so we can try to build one as well?

Merci! :-)
