[OctoHoover] -- low cost FPV, aerial video octocopter ~100€ by spu

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

The OctoHoover is not only cheap, there is no glue used in the whole project, what makes it super easy to repair if you chrash!
Why choosing an octo for FPV and aerial videography? Eight rotors make the flight more stabil in comparison to quads, especially in autolevel mode. What is more, you can get flighttimes up to 20min with an 10000mAh 3s LiPo! (13min with 5000mAh)
The landing gear, which is holding the battery, and any other payload, can be changed by removing four screws. This 'module system' gives you the possibility to build several landing gears for different applications. (FPV, gimbal, battery only...)
Ultimalely, with a price of around 100€ (excluding battery and transmitter) I can not see any downsides of the Octohoover!
