"Sensefly has been bought by Parrot some time ago, so it was just a matter of time for them to go multirotor, and i guess this one was developed in cooperation with the Parrot ArDrone Team. I like the fact that i will have a thermal camera, apart…"
"Honestly i don't see this happen soon, maybe ten years from now, but right now there are lots of variables for it to fail.
I agree with Jesse, too much liability, thefts etc...
-What if i'm playing with my quadcopter at the backyard, how does…"
"RCTimer includes the slip ring with the motor, but if you want just the slip ring alone you can try here: http://www.adafruit.com/category/34 they have several to choose from."
I just spotted on RCTimer's new items page a new brushless motor for gimbals - GBM5208-SR.What's good about it is that instead of normal shaft it has a tube shaft with a 12.7mm hole, they include a Slip Ring of the same size with it, this makes it…
"Hi Gabriel,
Your Welcome ;)Crossed bridges would add more weight because of bigger part and screws, not a big difference but still some grams would be added. I did not intend to use the crossed bridges with the 4 holes, that would add 2 more rubber…"
"Hi Gabriel,
Thanks ;)
Unfortunately i dont sell the Kit, due to high cost of materials it's almost impossible to sell it for a reasonable price. I would really like to have some fleet of my own designs that i could sell, not only for profit but…"
"Hi Legot, i've not used this OSD for a while, but i remember that too much voltage was causing the issue, try powering the OSD with a 2S lipo i believe that should do the trick"
"Well done ;)
Just a question, how do you get 20-25 minutes with a single 5000mha Lipo?, I have built a hexa with similar characteristics as yours, same weight,14" props, same motors but the 600kv version, and with 2x 3300mha Lipos i hardly get 8~9…"
"- Yes the Gemfan props are very good, I'm happy with them. I bought them from flyduino.net.
- I can't predict right now when it will be available to sell, it's still a prototype and i want to do more changes to improve it.
- Obrigado Rui, sim, de…"
"Hi all, thanks ;)
- Yes, my plan is to sell the kits, but i'm still prototyping and learning from mistakes.
- For the frame i'm using 1.5mm and 2mm CF Sheet, 22mm CF booms, quadframe.com clamps. Ive also designed a clever and cheap vibration…"
Hi guys, i want to share my Hexacopter Project.I designed all the frame parts and cut them out of 2mm carbon fiber in a cnc machine, this is still a prototype, I need to fix a lot of mistakes in a second revision of the frame.
"Hi Matt,
All issues i had with the OSD where caused because i upgraded to the wrong firmware, you have to use the firmware provided by DIYDRONES on the OSD product page, you will also find the manual there.
Cheers!"
