MIKROKOPTER SETS BY MIKROKOPTERDE
Kopter Basic kit price
QuadroKopter L4-ME -gt payload 400g ~900euro
HexaKopter -gt payload 800g (my current setup) ~1300euro
OktoKopter -gt payload 1000g ~1500euro
XL-Kopter
QuadroKopterXL -gt payload 1000g ~1400euro
HexaKopterXL -gt payload 1500g ~1900euro
OktoKopterXL -gt payload 2000g ~2150euro
If you use higher payloads the components could be overloadedand damaged a propeller could break and the copter will crash
There are few other companies on the market which offer RTF sets mikrokopterde offers only kits for self assembly

SECURITY
A Mikrokopter is not a toy Responsibility patience
the willingness to read a lot of documentation and a
casualty insurance are required before taking off
Find some experienced people and ask them for
help if you donrsquot have any RC experience
Never start without a valid insurance
Make sure to apply to your local governmental rules
especially when flying near airports
Never fly above people
and stay away from children
