Hi all,

Anyone else flying a TBS Caipirinha with APM setup? I'd be interested to see how you set it up, what PIDs you are running and what layout you used.

I've got one that I'm still tuning (stabilisation is rubbish at the moment...) with

Not the best pic... but shows layout of various components

Hi All,

Just about to do the same thing with a Pixhawk and the standard TBS caipirinha motor and ESC.

Did you have to upgrade the motor with the extra weight? Did it fly OK? I was thinking of using a 2200mah 3s. Is that going to push the motor too hard?

Hi Alex,

I am looking into getting this Flying wing - did you ever get it flying properly? If so - i'm curious how it handles the APM and various supporting components (flight times, etc)

Thanks!

Dumb question...your APM's are all rotated 90'. I assume that's a simple config option in MP when you set the airframe?

Im thinking about jumping in and doing the same as what you have done, hows it flying?
