Thanks a lot for the trouble you took .
But you are using only zipties I don't see screws anywhere

I won't take such a risk. I ll post some pics how I ve zip tied . I need some aluminium booms do u ve any.

You can get it from Aluminum fabrication workers - I got this 4 peices of 40CM long for free from some local fabrication workshop (scrap cut peices)

okay thanks, I ll check out.

@soorajp. Use screws only to connect mounts and motor. Connect the whole thing with zip ties to arms like in previous pictures. Zip ties have more than 20kg shear strength. It's some other problem causing problems.

@miginstruments. U can buy aluminium tubes in sp road.

Don't know if you can check out or check in , in  these local workshops, I don't think of such a need. 
Just check it out in a workshop .
Ha ha, jus' joking........

@pravesh736  , I got it.....

thanks pravesh. thank sooraj

The zip ties will tear before the shafts bend, if your quad crashes. I use zip ties. There are two types of copper clad. You need to get the FR4 one. Usually the substrate has a greenish tinge to it and is translucent.

Ha ha, I was wondering how to embed the video - now learned it

That's a really nice quad  . Keep us updated on any upgrades (FPV, GPS?) and all the best!

everything is in plan - and will be updated along.
A multiwii flight controller with GPS  is currently being built .
Always in the look out for a cheaper deal in 5.8GHz 200mW FPV transceiver.

Now I am upgrading my frame to metal center plates, As I got my SMPS burned last week I will be using its box (hard, light weight ) for center plates, got it cut in to shape today.

Really nice. Your DIY skills are impressive. i wouldn't dare scratch build a frame for my first quad. This set looks good: http://www.quadkopters.com/product/fpv-kit-and-accessories/fpv-kit-5-8g-200mw-av-txrx-system-with-sony-ccd-420tvl-camera/
Sadly it's out of stock. 4950 is a good price since a similar set is 54 dollars on Hobbyking without the camera.

4950
haha , hey dude, my whole quad with radio costs only below 9500 !!
I am in look out for ebay deals - FPV transceiver costs around 35USD for buy it now. but I am waiting to get a even cheaper deal by bidding, as I don't have even that much money now
well, why I DIY ? , because, I can save some more bucks there

9500!! WOW! Only my kit with frame, motors, ESCs and kk 2.1 was that much. LiPo, transmitter, charger, and accessories were all extra! What is your complete setup?

well this 9500 is managed by getting transmitter, LiPo etc... second hand.

Here is the setup

motors : 4x XXD 2212 /13t 1000Kv with two pair 1045 props : 2000Rs
ESC     : 4x simonk 30A for 1800Rs.
Flysky radio and receiver FS-T6 for 3000Rs.
LiPo - 2200 mah 3S 30C : 700/-
KK 2.0 : 1300/-
some other h/w and stuff : 500.

well this even don't sum up 9500 - have other expenses too -
But I know altogether I spend around 10K .

Done some upgrades on the frame  - New Landing skids from plastic shirt hanger thanks akhil eattan, (Akhilzid) for this Idea .
New bottom plate with fiber glass PCB (the old plastic center plates bend easily
Stronger motor mounting
And new yellow props - thanks Arun eattan (Arun.sreelakam)
So today I made the first RC Air Show in our college - Proud of that !! (even though it was mainly hovering around the ground and inside our auditorium - No much acrobatics as I ain't an experienced drone flyer )

do u have a video of the show ? can u post it pls

May be tomorrow - As I had the Tx in hand couldn't take Video.
Some of my friends should have taken videos, so will upload tomorrow .

Here is few pics from college, videos soon.
Main attraction is Landing skid from Shirt hanger - Found out the versatility of these - can be used as prop guards too. Thanks Akhil eattan for this idea.

shirt hanger that's awesome
