Would like to carry a DSLR camera.
Have no suitable batteries so completely open on 4 or 6s

price or quality ? not sure the two are mutually exclusive in hobby electrics, have certainly had some expensive rubbish in my time

I can';t recommend as I have nothing to compare against but my "research" firmly pointed me at 6S to carrya Gimbal and  Sony A6000

I used these
Tarot 5008/340KV motors TL96020
Tarot 15" folding propellors TL100D01 TL100D02 TL100B16
Hobbywing XRotor 40A ESC';s

Are these better or worse than others in the same range... I don';t know
Do they work, yes they do
The ESC';s keep cool and fit nicely under the motor on the X6 mount, they required no programming and calibration was simple.
The motors have very short wires and I needed to make right angle connections to the bullets on the ESC

I referred to this to help with my motor choice

T motor u5 400kv motors and 15" props on a 6s setup, as for esc I would couple them with T motor 40amp

that above will be pretty expensive though as motors are £76 for 1 and props are £55ish and not sure on esc im trying to find some now

On big setup, i use mainly ZTW and Sunrise Opto ESC (30A is enough)

Priced this up, as I';ve been having similar thoughts and my quad (currently running iPower 880KV, 10", 4S) is not quite keeping up with what I want to hang off it, and you';re not kidding. With a Tattu 16Ah 6S battery, X6 frame, T-Motor 45A 600Hz ESCs, T-Motor U5 motors and 16" T-Motor CF props it comes to about £1250. Control electronics I';d just transfer from the quad. Dithering a bit over batteries - is 3S in series a more sensible prospect, or more hassle than it';s worth?

All of the above said it should be a much chunkier and more capable vehicle than, say, a DJI S900, which would be in the same price bracket.

We tested an x6 with 6s batts this weekend fitted with Emax 3515 motors and to be honest it was a tad overpowered and not as nice as the previous 4s setup !!! Please bear in mind though payload is only a gopro on a zenmuse so AUW is only about 3.75 kg.... Never thought i would here myself say somethin was overpowered LOL !!!

tarot motor are ok  and 6s or for expensive  and better go t motor , and do 15';'; setup a dslr you need over power....  in case, and an ok setup is not working , take a big drop with the dslr and try to stop it  ..... you need power..
