"If I read it right, Josh has confirmed its done down wind and or down dip. The fastest we have done on a traditional BO style frame was 126km/hr with 4S 2204 kv1960 and HQ6045. This frame (ours) has ridiculously drag. Add a bit of wind and down dip…"
"Would love to know which props you are you using to get that speed? We have got to 154km/hr on 4S but the HQP5045BN NGF props we use explode under the stress.
Cheers

"Lovely renders. I like the aerodynamic arm supports. Quick question, in winds and multi mode, how do you think this will handle/effect performance. Particularly when the craft is at an angle continuously.

"Hi Leonard,
I am very exited about the board as well otherwise would not have posted. I make no suggestion that this board or any other is deficient. My comments reflect the pure fpv racer perspective, see final comment....I am sure there will be…"
"Great work Nick. A few general comments.
a) Pls keep it ultra simple. FPV racers are bare bone go carts. Keep all unnecessary sensors off the board, eg. baro. FPV racers need only the gyro and accel.
b) Some sort of wireless connectivity is useful…"
"Hi Gary,
Apologies, I missed the point re non mechanical mech tilt.
BTW, the aerodynamics of arms are less of an issue with the newer quads as the arms are around 14mm wide but thicker. They would be even less but for the escs being around 13mm…"
"Hi Guys,
Our experience is mostly with designing/building/selling racing quads although we are developing a mini tri at present because they are cool and fun!
Thought I would make some observations:
a) the popularity of mini tri frames has fallen in…"
"Hi Jimmy, thanks for posting. A couple of ignorant questions if you don't mind. How do these systems avoid entanglement with the props? Also, possible issues with deployment where the attitude is not ideal, eg. upside down or free wheeling?"
"Great, thanks for posting. How did you go with the vibration causing the load cell to oscillate unacceptably when using it as part of the structure to support the motor?
