Custom Designed 3D Printed Y6 Multirotor

Introducing my custom designed and 3D printed Y6 multirotor. After many hours of designing, printing, troubleshooting and test flying, I am finally showcasing my latest multirotor with the world. The frame base, motor holders, landing gear and 3-axis gimbal were printed 3D printed in ABS. The booms are carbon fiber tubes that are 330 mm long and 16 mm in diameter. Here are some additional specs:

• Motors: 6 X DT700 
• ESC: 6 x 30A Multistar
• 10x4.5 HQ props for the top motors
• 11x4.5 HQ props for the bottom motors
• DragonFly32 Pro Flight controller (Naze32 Pro clone)
• RC Receiver: FrSky X8R with an amp sensor and a voltage sensor
• 1 or 2 Multistar 5,200mah 3S LiPo for ~10 minutes or ~20 minutes of flight time respectively.
• Failed landing gear #1

It features a 3 axis gimbal that uses the following:

• 2 X brushless motors for yaw and pan
• 1 X brushless motor for tilt
• 32bit AlexMos controller
• GoPro Hero 4 Black Edition

Stay tuned for flight footage of the Y6 flying and gimbal stablilized footage from the GoPro / gimbal. Additional Pictures:
