Hello all. English is not my native language (I am from EU - Czech Republic), so sorry for possible errors. You made one great professional drone, which i totally love. Unfortunatley, I am not working in bussiness which can use the drone and for simple fly-play this drone IS more expensive, I can afford to give. But I saw 3 potential points for future upgrades on Your drones. I hope, you will see that as CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, which is intended to (maybe) help you in your future bussiness/constructions. 1) On the first camera stabilisator (gimbal?) - It will do better when prolonged. When you check your video, there is one of your rotor/motors jumping in the screen, which should probably not to be seen on profi-stuff (and wich may deter your possible custommers). Or at least try to shoot new video with less wind and slower movement, with motors not to be seen. 1b) Also You should consider to check your concurents advertising, because your video is great for informations about the drone, but not so great (or pressuasive) to make anybody WANT to buy the product. Usual advertisement spot is shorther, have more music, more shots on the product and mentions advantages of buying the product over the concurences products. But that basically depends on your bussiness and marketing strategy and volume/quickness with which you can produce the drones. 2) On the connection/screw points during the assembly - For assembly time sake and for user friendlyness (or by other words to support natural "lazyness" of man), you may consider some quick connection locks permanently attached to the construction, instead of screws. Technically, it is almost as good (and firm) connection as the screws, but it is much quicker to use, easier to use and less likely to be screwed because of missing/lost screw. 3) On the coverage - Majority of the upper side have batteries, wires and other electrical mechanisms on the open. There ARE things like quick and strong rain out there and your (possible future) custommers, who can invest 6k to the product usually knows that there ARE. Also, non of your custommer wants to lose their investment in your product. You should consider to make some (in this point ANNY) cover to your drone, to protect it from rain, or even arieal moisture. From the practical point of view, even the trashbag of sufficient size and with rubber sawn in its edge may be enough to do the job, but from the bussiness point of view, it should look sleek and good. If you insist on the tech-like-look, the coverage may be see-throught, but there should be at least anny. As I mentioned above - it is a great drone and great video. Hope, that jibberish of mine will be of anny use to you. Best regards
A shame so many people spoil things by adding stupid, rude comments. The guy has made a big effort to show you something, try to be respectful. Good work Alishanmao, thanks
Good to see that you are passionate about your hobby. The price is coming down and the technology is getting better. Do you always ban people for bad comments. Its good to see that manufactures are sending out complete machine . The inspire 1 is price less.
Bravo, Ali Shan Mao! You have immortalized yourself well. You have given us good information regarding batteries, multi-rotor design and much more. The wave of enthusiasm for personal flying cameras is still growing. Your name is now part of a historic era; the era of personal remote flight. Many of us have forgotten that we want to fly. Here's to remembering! ;)
A major disadvantage of this setup for filming is that you have to tilt the gopro down quite considerably in order to get the arms of the copter out of shot. You need a rig which drops the gopro down to the level of the landing skids. The gopro should then be able to shoot wide angle in a horizontal position (natural looking horizons) without the rotors in shot.
I also have a rct 800 hex that I have been flying for awhile and it is not even half the quality of my 2 year old ofm x650 ali built for me. The x650 is an amazing machine he tuned to perfection and it is still that way after at least a 100 hours of flight time. I fly this bid at least 5 times a week and all over the world. I'm hoping to be able to step up to the 700 hex he has soon. Keep up the good work.
Sure bro, you will get special prices for this Hex. and you will be doing the review of Upcoming OFM Sparrow too. how about a Rigged up powerful MPQ V1 to fly a Sony NEX? :D I bet you are using your NEX a lot now. Quads are less costly.
Hi Ali I'm a big fan of your drones bud, I can't believe people are arguing over the price it's seems they forget it comes assembled in a nice light easy carry case with gimbles and receiver etc etc.. I'll be contacting you for one in a short while cheers from Australia.. Nothing wrong with paying for good craftsmanship
Everything there looks pretty awesome except for the Tamiya connectors. Why use the absolute highest resistance battery connector on such an awesome rig?
I find that the K-130 Octocopter is a much more appealing aircraft and is more steady,,more cleaner looking.. Yours got all these bolts,, loose wires,,crazy trying to find the right machine..
Wow Im loving this hexacopter, especially since it gives you a range of cameras to install. Btw can you tell me what type of mountain bikes were featured in the beginning of the video. I think it was a blue/green color.
WOW do you really own all of them ? I am considering to buy DJI for photography and your videos are super helpful. Great work. You remind me of someone I know from India.
hello, how do you turn on the go pro to take video during the flight? do you have hand held remote controller to turn on the video or do you turn the go pro first on the ground before you fly it?
Dude. Love your work, commitment and enthusiasm. You remind me so much of myself! I just got the X5C-1 and love it. I'm curious though, where can I get your basic fpv model and what does it cost? Please let me know man, I'm wanting to try it out! Thanks!
i wanna buy a good quadcopter/oqtocopter. with LONG range and LONG flight time and with LIVE video to the ground. what is the best i should buy????? price dont matter
Shame it's noisy but i suppose theres not much you can do, I wonder what it sounds like with a shotgun mic?? If it was stealthy it would capture nice sound too which would add a great ambience to footage. Any how nice Hex ;)
Hello sir I've been watching videos. Pretty amazing. I need your help I have an RCT S800 frame it's similar to a djiS800 evo frame... the frame recommends 4114kv motor but there is various type the 320kv and 340kv and 400kv. I don't know which one exactly to buy. I live in Belize Central America it's not that easy to this things I have to buy them through Amazon and mail it my brother and he spends it to me.it's a long process........ so can you help me plz sir
I can get you custom cases if you want. but minimum quantity is 20pcs sir in order to get good prices. if you need like only 5pcs it will be retail costs and ouch, shipping of these heavy big boxes is gonna be insane. so you better have a good shipper who can ship these by sea for you
Hi, really appreciate the great vids. I need to get going in the FPV FILM industry within a 6 weeks. I'm wondering if you could put a pro film package together for me? Something upgradable. I have a $5,000 budget per quad or hex. I prefer either. To me eights a crowd. Your obviously one of (THE MEN) when it comes to pro series. I want three in total over the next three months. I'll start with one for now. Is my budget reasonable. Do I need to spend more to be considered professional grade? Thanks. Keep the vids coming either way. Good job.
email me, we have professional Quads and Octas now with professional 3 axis brushless gimbals for Panasonic GH3 GH4, Canon EOS 5D Mk3 and RedEpic Cameras.
haha the kid behind you said he want one, and the dad said you need to learn very well otherwise you wouldnt know how to assemble the parts. haha makes me laugh
i have a gopro 3+ and am using the camera for filming avent so i need something with a flight time of at least 1.5 hours or more. can you help and what is the price of these mac machines.
I can get you max 30+ or 35+ minutes with GOPro and everything onboard. however, custom solutions like these won't come cheap. Contact me. my email is in video description
wouldnt you have better power to weight ratio and more lift capability if you used gasoline engines instead of electric? Granted they are harder to control andmessier, but for sheer power... you could carry a truely awesome payload if you scaled up
A gas machine in public... OH MY. Electric is smooth. He is selling to photographers who I am pretty sure dont want to smell like gas. A payload is for GI Joe. If he went to a six cell lipo, you would be impressed. MASSIVE POWER!

Shortest guy on the field, but always has the coolest toys.
could you tell me which motor are you using for this drone?
That really is a beautiful & capable machine. So much versatility!
That's awesome!! What a monster multi rotor!!! Too expensive for me but still a lot of fun to watch! Thumbs up, Ali!!!
Man, this guy has all of the coolest toys!
Bravo, Ali Shan Mao!

Another fantastic and sick OFM machine! The family is still growing up :D
You are without a doubt the coolest person on TH-cam!

You need a rig which drops the gopro down to the level of the landing skids.

I have to say I love you practical approach for your reviews. Thanks for taking your time and effort to give us a real idea of the products!
I also have a rct 800 hex that I have been flying for awhile and it is not even half the quality of my 2 year old ofm x650 ali built for me.

Still use the gopro alot and the Sony rx100
william welch Hmm Go For a Quad then. Wait till we release OFM Sparrow :D or Phantom killer? :D hehehe
I can't believe some people are just so priceless, like Kamal sameer that I just banned
Agree, sometimes a driverlicense for Internet would be useful.
Hello, were i can buy this one ? some help please.
gustavo carias check video description, for my email and email me
very heavy drones
Umpa lumpa?
Love the portability. Nice machine.
I hate it when people try and sell stuff as "Professional"
Its just ridiculous honestly
Hi Ali I'm a big fan of your drones bud, I can't believe people are arguing over the price it's seems they forget it comes assembled in a nice light easy carry case with gimbles and receiver etc etc.. I'll be contacting you for one in a short while cheers from Australia..
Nothing wrong with paying for good craftsmanship
wtf why so much hating on his vids? stuff looks amazing..am i missing something?
Everything there looks pretty awesome except for the Tamiya connectors. Why use the absolute highest resistance battery connector on such an awesome rig?
Very nice A, I think I found a new hobby.
Nice michine, does it come with a top cover to cover the electronics?
I wouldn't mind having a toy like that. Nice video
What gimbals are you using?
i think drones are great fun i lost a two foot one but was returned good as new good old face book.
Have you used a GPS and a motion sensor together with a Gopro?
how long can it fly ?
CRAZY stable
Looks sweet Ali. Cant wait for it to get here.
I find that the K-130 Octocopter is a much more appealing aircraft and is more steady,,more cleaner looking.. Yours got all these bolts,, loose wires,,crazy trying to find the right machine..
Dang I wish I had technical skills like you...
Really cool vid, man!especially the footage and ur circle flyin looks awesome!
I appreciate expetise when I see it.
I hope you can make a great living doing what you enjoy!!!
Do you have a video on how to connect the batteries on a Hexacopter/Quadcopter? I guess you need more than on bsttery
need something with 4x the fly time ... what can you come up with ?
Wow Im loving this hexacopter, especially since it gives you a range of cameras to install. Btw can you tell me what type of mountain bikes were featured in the beginning of the video. I think it was a blue/green color.
Hola, donde comprar este aparato?, equipado con el steady?
Your drone is amazing.
how would you compare this with the TAROT 680PRO?
Hello, What kind of motors does this have? Thanks.
Cobra motors?
WOW do you really own all of them ? I am considering to buy DJI for photography and your videos are super helpful. Great work. You remind me of someone I know from India.
What motors are these? They need a 40amp esc yet provide long flight times?
thx for this video, what does it cost all?
What kind of flight time are you getting with the big DSLR ?
hi ali
i want to know that four cell confriguration is dengerous for hexacopter
hello, how do you turn on the go pro to take video during the flight?
do you have hand held remote controller to turn on the video or do you
turn the go pro first on the ground before you fly it?
is good, canon 5d ?
The gimbal in the middle of the three that you show in the beginning of this video can also fit your nikon d40 in it?
I am very confused about ESC placement under loading pipes.
Every time the dslr jumps it might heat to the escs and damage it some day
Hi, Ali, how to control and take photo with DSLR via radio?
Hi, do you build drones for living?
If you run this hexacopter with 2 6s 20,000 mAh batteries, how much flight time do you estimate you would get, with the stella gimbal?
I like your Hexacopter, Way to go Alish! ^^
what motor do you recommend with this esc?Hobbywing XRotor 40A 2s 6s?SunnySky X2212 KV980 Brushless Motor?
how much the hexacopter cost? im planning to buy one
Dude. Love your work, commitment and enthusiasm. You remind me so much of myself! I just got the X5C-1 and love it. I'm curious though, where can I get your basic fpv model and what does it cost? Please let me know man, I'm wanting to try it out! Thanks!
Nice toy, be even better with a good microshell body round it to get rid of all the drag & make it look good too.
Those kids with the funny looking bikes just stole you gimbals! LOL ;-)
So Funny. but all my gimbals are still at home :D lol
That's good. I'm sure the big ones are very expensive.
i wanna buy a good quadcopter/oqtocopter. with LONG range and LONG flight time and with LIVE video to the ground.
what is the best i should buy????? price dont matter
+mike vk Build yourself one :) or hire us to build for you.
+alishanmao how much?
I 55 it on junk
DJI Inspire One or other DJI Products
whats the top speed on this bad boy?
Love our channel man, great informative videos! A+
Man I'm looking for a Travel case like that for my Tarot 650. Anyone have an idea where I can find one?
Great demo!
Ali ! Awsome skills, thank you for sharing.
i wanna make a quadcopter with the arms like yours that can flip out. ( 1:44) May i know how to make the system like that? Thanks before
Why would you want to record audio, if all you hear are the blades, motors and wind noise?
Amazing drone one of the best I seen yet he much it cost u?
#Awesome Thanks! a lot.
good demos ~ thanks for sharing ~ where were you Shanghai ?
MUY BUENO
TE MANDO UN GRAN SALUDO .
How much does that cost ? I want one.
HI, WHERE TO BUY SAME CASE AS THIS?
An awesome machine ......
Well done.
Where would I buy this Hex?
Very nice work!
This is so awesome Thanks for sharing.
Coolest Hexacopter I ever seen. I am really interested to build it. Can u help me to build it? :(
for how long the battery offers flight time with the Canon 5D?
possible to get 18 minutes or so depending upon what battery you use.
Can I use that Stella gimble for the newer gopros
possibly
how much approximately it cost?
how much does it cost?!
Shame it's noisy but i suppose theres not much you can do, I wonder what it sounds like with a shotgun mic?? If it was stealthy it would capture nice sound too which would add a great ambience to footage. Any how nice Hex ;)
Maybe it could drop a directional mic when hoovering still and pull it back up when done. lol
Really cool thanks for the vid and info
Great Vid Ali..
Your gadget is awesome man, but all that kids around worries me.
Hello sir I've been watching videos. Pretty amazing.

great video
haha the kid behind you said he want one, and the dad said you need to learn very well otherwise you wouldnt know how to assemble the parts. haha makes me laugh
Thank you for sharing your toys, I been considering to own one. will be looking for prices on your site found prices thanks .

I can get you max 30+ or 35+ minutes with GOPro and everything onboard. however, custom solutions like these won't come cheap. Contact me. my email is in video description
I will need you to build me a unit early next year.
If I would like to purchase this machine can I get electric retracts
yes but you will have to set them up yourself
wouldnt you have better power to weight ratio and more lift capability if you used gasoline engines instead of electric? Granted they are harder to control andmessier, but for sheer power... you could carry a truely awesome payload if you scaled up
A gas machine in public...
OH MY. Electric is smooth. He is selling to photographers who I am pretty sure dont want to smell like gas.
A payload is for GI Joe. If he went to a six cell lipo, you would be impressed. MASSIVE POWER!
I agree! to ThatHPI GUY! and OFM is not for professionnals, only hobbyist... not more
