Introduction
My Name is Dammes Nienhuis and I was recently introduced to the mikrokopter phenomenon by WEP. I soon ordered most parts and at this moment I'm flying the ......OHOKOPTER (oho stands for Oranje Hof Oosterstraat, which is the alley next to my house where lots of projects start off )
Email: ohokopter@oosterstraat.net
At the moment the ohokopter looks like the picture below. I've teamed up with Wouter and Chris (wep800 and woody), they'd been at it for a while longer. We regularly meet for some flying and playing. Check out the videos at:

http://www.vimeo.com/user398112/videos wep800's videos

For now the ohokopter is equipped with fpv video, mm3 kompass module, bluetooth serial link to laptop, ixus cam gimbal, carbon full length rc receiver antenna and custom carbon landing gear.
on order are the new osd from range video US, a bunch of led lighting and lasers from Hong Kong, some lipos, also from Hong Kong and a 35MHz channel checker from the US. As all other enthusiastic MK builders I'm also anxiously waiting for H&I to make the navi board available for us mere mortals in the MK lower foodchain.
All info below the picture, still has to be updated so for now just check out the videos on vimeo.
