This Hexacopter is no toy, that’s for certain. Forget about your ideas of little flying models puttering around a field, peeps, this thing screams. The rate of ascent in ‘elevator mode’ is just amazing. Watch the video below. If you fancy your hand at making one of these, you’ll apparently need around $1500.00 and a good dash of soldering skills. You know who you are.
Compared to a quadrocopter with 4 rotors, an MK-Okto brings the following advantages:
* higher payload with up to 1kg (2.2 pounds)
* despite the higher payload no bigger (more dangerous) propellers or motors are being used
* redundancy: the Okto will still be able to fly with propeller damage or when it touches an obstacle.
