My Pixhawk Setup

Posted by Sean Whitney on June 17, 2014 at 3:26pm

I was able to get 5 flights in today mostly in loiter and it's pretty rock solid. I am curious what it will do with a little wind. 

Here are my params for a Trex 550 stretched to a 700 running 1500 RPMs. 3691129941?profile=original

Trex 3.1.5 001.param

      KDE motors are a must have for these helicopters they very reliable. 

      Yes I 3D printed the GPS mount. I also printed the plate that the Pixhawk sits on and the battery tray. I can send you the files if you want them?

      Sean,  I'm curious about what your motor spec's are.  Are your frame plates the stock 49mm apart?

      Regards,

        David,

        Yes my frames are the stock width. My motor is a little outdated but still works very well. I was running 2 7s 7800 MAH batteries and getting 30-35 minute flight times.

          Thanks for the reply.  great flight time.  I did not know of any low Kv motors that were that small in diameter.  Thinking of stretching my 550 to a 600. If I do my stock Align 1220Kv has got to go.

          Regards

    Great! 

    You must be a well experienced RC pilot.  Good job with the mountings.
