have fun sharing our RC adventures!
I thought I'd share some control horns that can be used without the additional plate. I found that a simple slot, with 5 or 12 min epoxy, will...
Randy, Nice Job! You could definitely see that it was windy! Still, the video was very stable and it seems like you have the Tri dialed in. Time...
Here you go. This is one version of our tri-copter. John Attached files Tri_QSC_LITE - Advanced JDB Rev 0.2-1.skp (1.7 MB)Â Tri_QSC_LITE -...
Bob, Looks Great! Glad to hear that it's flying! See you at SEFF! John
Randy, Super! Thanks for the tips! If I make a waterproof adapter, I'll send you one. John
Yes, I saw it and I'm still shaking... Did you take your GoPro apart, or did you opt for cutting the lens guard (not what I'm going to do!). It...
Randy, Nice job! The lens looks like it got out the fisheye and seems like a great focal length. I'm getting up the courage to put mine in....
Shaun, The difference between the tri with just the gyros, and the tri with the active stabilization system is unbelievable. On my first flight,...
Take a look on AllThingsCrash in the Multi Rotors section. Mike did a detailed build on the airframe, and I did an overview on the hardwired...
Shaun, I got it to fly pretty good but not as stable as I would like it. It acted "funny" at times, intermittently. I did do the HK401 gyro mod...
Sorry I haven't contributed much to this thread lately. We've been busy reading, building and playing with these multi-rotor thingies. I thought...
Randy, You're right, the "Y" can be confusing. That's why I mounted the canopy up front to help me with the orientation. Using the Wii stuff,...
Thanks to all for the feedback! Crash and I are working out the builds and consolidating the vast amount of information on all the variants of...
Depends on how high I mount the camera. I get the props and canopy in the shot now. When I mounted it higher, I could get a clear shot. Remember,...
I will say that these Tri and Quad copters are a blast! I'm using a bit larger motors, and have no problem flying around with a fully loaded...
I didn't see any place in the setup screens that would allow slaving two axis together. I was specifically looking for this at one time in order...
Mark, I have the old ArduPilot I use for simple aircraft. The newer ArduPilotMega is the platform, in my opinion, that would give folks the...
I lost about 30-40% of the weight of each arm by machining the lightening/access openings. The thin-wall tubing is actually lighter than ply or...
I am building a spin on the tricopter. A bit bigger and will eventually replace the gyros with a full autopilot, or at least an active...
For folks with big hands, or just wanting an easier way to change bits, here is a quick tool to help loosen and tighten the chuck. Use any 1/4"...
