My first custom quad

[Herpderpwerp]

10x5.5? Those are plane type props probably, make sure the motors can handle them and that they won't stall out when you get a little high.

That is the only 10" carbon props that i can find, the other choice is 9x45 or plastic props

 

[GJH105775]

What motors are you using and, ESCs, battery? You may be able to use them, they'll provide plenty of lift. getting that pitch I'd suggest wood that is for electric, it is a little cheaper than CF and a will last a lot longer.

 

[Herpderpwerp]

The motor is suppo 28-14/6 1400KV, it has 400watts of power and 50amps esc. I use a 5400mah 3s 45C lippo battery

 

[GJH105775]

Battery supports 243amps, the motors around 32.5 amps, all checks out on ecalc too, grab some wooden 10x6.

Hahaha, it will take 3 weeks to order from hobbyking to my country, maybe i will look for another prop alternative, maybe some of the local hobbyshop have that 10x6 wooden prop, but are they available in cw and ccw configuration?

Bout all places that have props will have both, they may go for different names like normal rotation and reversed rotation.

A lot of my local hobbyshop only sells parts for plane and helis, but not for multirotor, so it's a bit difficult to find reversed props. But some of the online store have them, i just try my luck with the 10x55 carbon prop first heheheh.
Btw this is the new frame design

 

[GJH105775]

Looks like a great design. Is that a picture, or rendered?

Haha, I'd like to se you try to break that.

How much flex it have when you twist the arm?

That is a picture heheheh, yeah this one is much more stiffer than the first one, and the arm didn't flex at all

 

[GJH105775]

Did not think it would with that bracket tight and that CF tube in haha, weight?

 

[Herpderpwerp]

Didn't have time to measure the weight yet, but i estimate about 200-300grams, maybe less

Haha, I need this frame. I was gonna get some CF tube and sheeting to make frames with, but aluminium is just so easy to work in comparison.

If u want, i can email u the coreldraw files heheheh, feel free to tinker with it

 

[Herpderpwerp]

Just waiting for the props to arrive

 

[GJH105775]

Haha, looking great. Can't wait to see some videos.

 

[Herpderpwerp]

As soon as this baby fly, i'm gonna post some videos heheheh

 

[Herpderpwerp]

Have another crash today hahahahaha, not because a design flaw, but because of my clumsyness. Fly too close to a wall, and in a panic i flick the throtle. Snap one of the carbon tube arm....
But i know now that the design works. I guess i have to tune the throtle sensitivity, it hover just with 1/3 of power. Try to build a H design with the salvageable carbon tubes

Haha, that bad of a crash? You might consider aluminium, I have yet to have to replace parts, and I have had some pretty hard crashes, I usually can just bend things back into shape and replace a few bolts.

Yeah, it's bad hahahaha, its about from 30feet high, almost crash to my neigbour wall, still have't used to the controls

 

[GJH105775]

Haha, I have crashed from 100+ feet with my monster and not a scratch, but from 20 feet with a bit of forward momentum and Ican make it look like it were hit with a lawn mower.
