New H4 Alien 680 Quadcopter Build Progressing

This past weekend I started on an H4 Alien 680 quadcopter build.  This unit will be an FPV quadcopter capable of carrying a GoPro or small but high quality point and shoot camera like a Sony RX100, with gimbal.

The idea behind this one is a bigger and more stable platform than a small quad like a Phantom, but foldable and easy to put in a backpack and transport.  This H4 does just that.

Here are a few photos of the box opening and build states up to last night, where I got the GPS tower and on screen display installed for the MiniX flight controller.
