Goctocopter

[mfish33]

This is my goctocopter if you are wondering what that is it is a ghetto octocopter.  Its not build in this fashion because i';m bad but i';m 14 and have no money.  All the parts can be bought for $300.  Camera is my friends it is a lumix gf2.  I had the gopro not in the price.  Also the fpv stuff is not included but can be bought for about $70.  The screen is from the google fpv headset did not realy like it and prefer it this way.  The blue motor mount was 3d printed by a froend becasue didn';t have the money to buy another frame.

Nice build for one your age, well done!!!!
Wiring could be tidier but if it all works that';s ok and can be remedied later.
Out of interest why did you go for such a big model?

Please re-look at your motor connections, you have taped up soldered connections that are unravelling close to each other and to conductive metal booms.  Any short here with vibration will down your multi, likely destroy it, and possibly anything under it at the time as its heavy!

Shrink wrap is very cheap and will save you heartache!!

Happy Flying.

Looks like he';s used heat shrink on some of the connectors, but it hard to tell because the wiring is so messy.

A little bit of attention tidying the wires up will help with diagnosing any problems, but good job on your first multi

I';m out of shrink wrap so the connections are taped fixes problem.  The reason why the wiring is nice one of my pet peives is that it breaks so often it would be annoying to constantly do it.  The reason i built this is that I have had smaller ones but could not lift a camera and I reused a bunch of parts to save money.  The wiring was better but pdb shat itself and made a breakout cable from speaker wire.
