Bought a Q680 from Hobbyking? Daunted at the task of mounting stuff to it? Never fear, i've gone through the hassle so you don't have to. Included in this kit is: -Landing gear kit designed for 5.4mm (marked .210") Carbon fiber (Previous 8mm version tested, 5.4mm version untested) -Battery retainer kit for select batteries (Tested, functional) -Modified TBS Discovery brushless gopro Gimbal parts (STOCK parts are directly taken from NATHAN_'s design, some parts are modified to work with a 16mm motor) (UNTESTED) Check the instructions for specifics on the electronics setup I used and required parts. Instructions Required parts: Landing Gear: 5.4mm (marked .210") Carbon fiber or similar durable rod 4x leg joint, 2 normal, 2 mirrored 2x landing gear mount, 1x if using gimbal 1x landing gear gimbal mount if using gimbal. !Instructions coming soon!

If not, please do so) 1x motor plate (STOCK) 1x camera holder (12 or 16mm, take your pick) 1x gimbal arm (12 or 16mm, take your pick) !Instructions coming soon-ish! Don't have a Q680 yet?
