[build] GepRC AX4 light quad build project :)
Hi there RC people 
It can be a lot of fun to buy / order up a ready made RC, and go out & fly / drive it right away On the other hand great satisfaction can be found in selecting all components yourself and then build the craft
This allso gives you more insight into how things really work (and how they do Not work :P)
The objective in this project is to build a light / nimble FPV quadcopter. It is allso a bit of an experiment, so who knows.. it might not work out right away. That is O.K. though! As long as we learn something
This series will be quite a nr. of video's and I'll try to put as much info into the individual video's as possible. This allso means the project won't be ready in just a few days as well offcourse
Let's start the project with an overview of the components I've selected for it

Halloa people
Here is part 2 for my light / nimble quadcopter build! In this part I'll take a look at the GepRC GEP-AX4 (180mm) true-X frame (aka Airbus).. Are they well made? Fit & finish up on par?
Let's have a look
