    Hey Leo

    where in OZ did you get to shoot ?
    Were running a few Octa rigs out of Brisbane and Byron Bay with my Epic on it, some cool footage...that old racetrack is amazing.

    This is the prop arrangement you need for those micro rigs, its much more dynamically stable and very, very smooth. Also the rig allows the camera to look forward with out being obscured by the arms.

    We have tried something very similar in the beginning and its was very unstable comparison to 8 booms.... also lease correct me if I'm wrong but can't lift a PL mount Epic?

    Great looking footage there! What size Lipos are you flying with and how good flight times are you getting?

    Hi Dave
    Thanks for the Link to your site, I noticed that the airframe you are promoting is flying a Go-Pro, do you have a link to an Airframe that is lifting a Red Epic?
    Thanks

    hi Lauri
    We are running Li-PO's 10000's and averaging around 8mins flight time with an Epic or 11mins with the BMC (Black Magic Cam)

    Hi Leo,
