Week - 6 working on the hexa

The old ESCs we have will not support high voltage batteries which we thing we need. So we ordered new ESCs and hopefully they will come in by the end of the week. After the new ESCs we will be able to run 5 or 6 cell batteries which the hexa needs since it has 5 motors.

After switching to taranis the hexa wouldn't even budge, at this point we were out of time and came to the conclusion it was cursed. These are pictures of the completed quad.
