The prototype hub was assembled with just the mechanical components. (No batteries, controller or blades). It was decided that it'd be good to do a quick test to ensure that the assembly would hold together before proceeding further with the rest of the project. Therefore the hub was mounted onto the vehicle and a quick spin up test was performed.

The hub held together, so the next step will be adding the batteries and the controller board. I've also started making the first set of rotor blades, which I'll document in a future build log.
