Peter commented on Stefan Gofferje's blog post New huge multicopter motors from Hobby King
"Well. I tried to find the answer myself.
Consider 105 kv engine. 6S gives 22.2 V. There would be 2331 rpm at full power.
Suppose we have 26x5 2-blade propeller.
Then I used this site.
The result was 3.01 kg for standard propeller, and 3.28 kg for…"

On Saturday I launched my hexacopter another time. Things went as usual, while I was at STABILIZE mode and ACRO. When I had switched to ALT_HOLD the hexa suddenly stopped and fell down like a rock. I switched back to ACRO quickly and tried to catch…

Peter commented on vis.asta's blog post qadrocopter 125 min in the air
"Аста, тут вот в чем дело. Когда предъявляют такой результат, с одной стороны это круто, бесспорно, а с другой стороны, это как отличник пришел, похвастался какой он крутой, и молчит, на вопросы не отвечает, ничем не поделится. Поэтому такое вот…"

Peter commented on Christiaan van Vollenstee's blog post APM 2.5 Power Layout
"BatShare from Smart-Fly - the one for 29.95
Seems a bit overpriced for a bunch of wire, a LED, and some diodes. Well, may be, it could protect the second battery if the first caught internal short circuit, but I have never heard of the crash of that…"

I have an APM2.5 board and I am building my first hexacopter, so the first build seems harder.Now I am trying to understand the basics of powering of the APM board. At first, do I understood correct, that if JP1 jumper is not set, I should power…

Peter commented on Gareth Rens's blog post FrankenCopter build coming soon! 1 of 1 ;)
"Gareth, I choosed motors and controllers for my copter under the influence of your posts. My copter is not ready, and now I am collecting information that can be helpful. Would you be kind to give me an advice or two on G10 motors and Turnigy dlux…"
