"In fact, I do not understand why they put the GPS in the middle of the board. There is also heat which can cause problems.
The gps should always be put in such a way radio interference and leakage are minimized. The best is putting it outside the…"
I know that this is the place of diyers but I am trying to compare Ardu-based copter with other solutions. And by taking into account the conterless hours I spent with Arducopter I can say I am quite satisfied .This is a video of a friend of…
"Volevo segnalarvi anche questo sito che rivende pezzi di copter.
Lo ammetto: Io vi ho collaborato alla realizzazione e ho lavorato come consulente.
Non e' proprio per modellisti (vende anche cose strane), ma i prezzi come vi sembrano (sezione…"
"Thank you. If you look at the first arducopter frame you will notice that the aluminium arm are not joint, and that is the reason it was so weak. I can put a cross but in this way I have to re-design the body, because the internal space will…"
"I would like to print in 3D (shapeways) the parts you see in the figure. Maybe I have to split the main body, because it is too big for single shot printing.
For heating of motors, I think it is enough to make some holes around the motors mounting."
"Thank you Fab. I was trying to add the protection of the props...it is not so simple...because I want to print it in ShapeWays and they have strict rule about size.
I will try. However, I think it is better to protect the props with a circular ring…"
"Is it not enough to open holes on the sides?
I can assure to you that, as a newbie, when the quad crashes the first which gets broken is the motor ...maybe I have to fly it on the asphalt..."
"Did you ever tried to fly the copt in a field with grass? I alway found any sort of grasses inside the motor (plus terrain grains...)
It is not a problem the heat, because the upper part is still open.
See also other professional frames, like…"
I am trying to convince me that AC2 can fly better...So, in my spare time, I designed this new frame. I think to send in production (ponoko?) as soon as possible.The concept is that everything, especially motors, must be protected.I definitely must…
"Same here. If I move the roll stick to forward or backward the quad goes always forward. If I move the pitch to left/right the quad goes always to right.
This happens ONLY when the quad is in air. At the ground, I tested the radio and the motos spin…"
"Forget the second one from HobbyKing. The quad will not be stable at take off/landing, because the baricenter is too low.
I used once and changed it the day after."
