TPAC was flown this morning with thrust to spare, carrying a total payload of 5 LBS (2.27 KG). The payload consisted of six 12 ounce beverage containers, as shown below. Total weight was 12 LBS, including two 4350 mAh lipo batteries. Flight was carried out WITHOUT resorting to bigger motors. Estimated flight time with this payload is 4 minutes.
Please view the video at the TPAC project on Kickstarter.
I would be honored if you could take a look at my Kickstarter project:
It uses two Rimfire motors GPMG4700 (about 2HP each), two Castle Creations Phoenix edge 100 ESCs, and either the UDB4 or UDB5. The origin of the source is Matrixpilot 4.0, adapted to the hybrid differential thrust (pitch) and thrust vectoring (roll) 4-DOF control system.
Your comments and advise will be greatly appreciated!
Best regards,
Gert Lundgren
