[General] multi-roter drones...

[Dan Hess]

Ok, as promised here's my spreadsheet on parts.  Since I'm building a mini
quad and a hex, I made another page that accounts for the minimal overlap
between the two.

I built this list while a few others were building theirs and came to the
realization that they were breaking more than they had hoped for and had to
wait on parts to get in and such.  So I've included a few extra of some of
the parts that seem to get broken.  They've been noted, so if you wish to
ignore them you can.

This whole thing does not include an actual frame since there are several
out there you can buy or print.  The hex, I did spec for a 550mm diagonal
from motor to motor.  If you go lower than that, you might touch blades and
bad things ensue.
