Hello, my name is Marcel from Germany.

Because I am so poor, I have build my own DJI Mavic clone from a 3D printer including home made Groundstation. Flight time is about 9 Minutes. FC is stripped down Naza V2.
See for yourself and tell me how you like it:

That's an impressive amount of engineering in the ground station and drone.

So many questions, but just start with one: What is the white servo arm in the top front right of the drone body?

It is for the 1-axis gimbal for the FPV camera.
 
Wow. Nice and compact with how it fits in the controller box. How's the GPS hold?
 
Great Job. You should continue work on it and make a second version that is even further refined. One of the large players may take you on and offer you a fat Job. I think GoPro could use a guy like you.

I think the doorbell will ring within a few weeks and DARPA is on your doorstep offering you a job.

It's all about smaller and more convenient to take with you. This is a concept of the MavicPro 3. Is it charging when in the case? Like the case itself is a charger with a battery inside?

Just wondering: I see in the screen on top of the controller "1080P/60 Wide", but I can't see the camera and a gimbal, if there is one. What camera did you use and have you managed to install a gimbal?

To many questions, but this you might be someone who can make some magic and fulfill the needs of some dronepilots.

Still deeply impressed!

Happy Flying

Edit: just read that there is a 1 axe gimbal.
 
Impressive job! Marcel, did it cross your mind to start a crowdfunding campaign for your hobby? I already see here a handful of future investors, me included!
