Tarot X6 Hexacopter comes with new electric folding landing gears, umbrella folding machine arms and integrated PCB. The 6 rotors provide sufficient power to the aircraft. Even if one axis accidently stop working, the hexacopter still can fly in a stable state.
As per our flying test, by using 6S 10000mAh battery and with a payload of 7kg, the flight time of Tarot X6 is 24 minutes. The payload can be up to 10kg.

Here's a build manual of Tarot X6 Hexacopter for your rererence. If you are worrying about the build, you can also simply purchase the
Tarot X6 ARF RTF from fpvmodel.com.
Use cable ties to get through the motor board.
Cut the motor wires to a suitable length and make them get through motor board. Connect the motor wires with banana plug and solder them together. The total length after soldering is about 8cm~10cm.
Mount the ESC.
Get the power supply wire and signal wire of ESC through the arm tube.
And then solder them together with the ESC wires. The red positive pole of ESC’s power supply wire need to be soldered with red wire, black wire soldered with bare wire. The yellow signal wire of servo line soldered with white signal wire, and black wire soldered with black wire.
Finished with heat-shrink tubes after soldering.
Now one of the frame arms is successful assembled. We can assemble all the six arms in the same way.
Friendly reminder: When you are tightening the screw that as showed in the picture, please do not screw it over-tightened, or the red part may be damaged. Once there’s no obvious gap on the red part, the tightening need to be finished.
And then, get the accessories from inside the Tarot X6 frame.
Assemble them with the arm. (For the details, please refer to the frame manual)
Mount on the frame. Stuff the unnecessary wires into the arm tube and only keep a suitable length. The same, we can assemble all the 6 arms in this way.
If your battery is with XT60 connector, you can solder a converter line.
Then, install the landing gears.
Mount them onto the lower part of frame.
Insert the m1-m2 servo line into the servo, then adjust the connection between motor and ESC according to the motor’s CW and CCW.
Stuff the unnecessary wires into the motor board and mount the ESC with cable ties.
Use three XT60 male plugs to solder the power supply wires of flight controller, landing gears and 12V BEC separately. This is for the power supply of gimbal and A/V transmitter.
Please remove the screw on the frame and change to tighten the one that comes with the canopy when you are assembling the canopy.
If the red knob can not be easily rotated, please do not rotate it forcibly, or this part may be damaged. You can rotate it by loosing the screw with a screw driver and then tighten it before flying.
Install the battery board. You can mount the rubber ring on the frame before mounting the battery board.
Finally, the build for Tarot X6 is done.
