MikroKopter Droidworx AD-6HL Hexacopter

Description

MikroKopter Droidworx AD-6HL Hexacopter
Hi RC friends,
I got this years ago now for an eye popping price (5 digits!) and after only flying it a few times and it sitting in storage for the rest of the time, my loss is your gain.
In summary, you should
only
consider this auction if you are experienced with MikroKopter components and setup.  This is not a rig for a beginner!
Please watch the video that I made for this auction:
https://vimeo.com/576539179
All the components in this auction are good to go, and I will guarantee ANY component from DOA or having issues.  I'm out to make sure you are satisfied!  That said, I am happy to sell any parts of this a la carte or as a bundle, particularly the Graupner HoTT 12 or the camera undercarriage (I can spin either off into a separate auction).
Please ask any and all questions, and I am happy to schedule a video conference / chat to get any of your questions answered.
In the images you see a lot of stuff:
- Droidworx AD-6HL "heavy lifter" chasis, 6 rotors, with MikroKopter FltCtrl, NavCtrl, and
GPS 2.0 boards.  Its (very similar) successor: https://drones.altigator.com/ad6hle-droidworx-heavy-lift-extended-v3-p-127.html
- Droidworx servo-elevating camera gimbal undercarriage (1 channel)
- Graupner mx-20 HoTT-12 (0 new!) https://www.live-hobby.de/en/1-sorto/Graupner-MX-20-COMPUTER-SYSTEM-HoTT-12-channels-Transmitter-33124-16.html   Please note that the plastic shroud on its antenna is cracked and a little flimsy but it does not affect operation and should not be an issue.  Also note that I replaced its crappy battery pack with a AA bank.
- Acer Atom laptop for diagnostics and live MikroKopter kopter tool in the field (its battery is mostly dead but is replaceable)
- Stinger / Yellowjacket 5ghz video transmitter and receiver for any live video feed (via 2.5mm video jack)
- Detachable and lightweight landing gear for easy transport
- 4' aluminum tripod tower I use for video rig and telemetry into the laptop.  If you don't care about having this tower, please let me know and I will credit you on shipping.
- 4 spare / replacement props
- The battery you see in the for-sale video is NOT fit for flight and I only use for diagnostics, etc.
- GoPro Hero2 is included along with 3 batteries and a bag of accessories -- but this is old and not interesting compared to more recent cameras
I got a new Xbee at one point but have not yet paired it.  If this is something that is important to you to be done (or demonstrated) before your bid, then I can try to make time to do that.  Again, I guarantee any component from DOA and I want you to be fully satisfied. The other Xbee you see in the video is the previous one and am including it in case you want to see its config (it has Tx issues).
The XBee and kopter settings are not currently set up since I assume the person getting this would presumably immediately do a full firmware upgrade of their choice.  In case it is not clear, if you bid in this auction, you consider yourself knowledgeable on doing a MikroKopter configuration and setup!
Again, happy to discuss and present details over the phone or do a showing.
