I have like 14 days left on kickstarter. Tonight I tried a simple mod. Made a plate to go on top. Cut longer studs and secured the battery connector to the frame. It's a tight fit for these 5030 props. Flew it and I'll have to admit with the mobius on there it flew really decent. No...

I guess I could add the handle. The stupid thing does get in the way when you want to add lights etc. I think this weekend if time allows, (may put up Christmas lights) I will make the two lights on top. I saw a quad with clipped props on it. It had some hefty motors on it, but they clipped...

These are good suggestions. I did email quadlugs, and asked him how sales where. He said its been hit and miss. He lives in my state. Flitetest have the market because of the testing they do. I can't put that much time into this business unless I get laid off. (Which is more of a reality...

I learn a lot from your suggestions. I have never heard of the pendulum effect. I always wondered why drones were not designed to lift from the bottom instead of the top. Could it be the same for co axial s? There the term used was called toilet bowl effect on the back rotor stabilizer. I...

Well my friends, I cannoblized my indoor to make this on Sunday morning. Here she is flying. The video will show the weight. I can see how squirrely these get once they get down in circular size. Seems the smaller class are the most fastest one. I need a beta pilot badly to test out how...

Turnigy 1806-2280kv Emax Motor Set Of 4 CW/CCW max thrust is 460g that is what I have on the indoor. The rpm is not too far off from the MultiStar & Afro Combo Pack - 2206 Baby Beast Motor and 12A Afro ESC Set of 4 CW/CCW (AR Warehouse) According to the Hk site they are replacing it with this...

You two guys are my best fans of this project. I'm glad I found you. And your the only ones who answer my questions. I really appreciate that. Can I use a 800kv on that small of a frame? I would have to cannibalize the one next to it too use its 2210 motors if not. The maximum prop distance...

Thanks guys. If I do get rich of this I won't forget this forum. :)

Hello fellow fliers. I want to take the time to share with you a project that is well underway and ready for orders. It is a folding drone, (deltarotor is what I am calling them), that will fit inside of a small suitcase for travelling. The deltarotor is made out of a material that is light as...

Moderators I really don't know where to put this. I think it is time to learn about Nav points, GPS, and programming by an interface instead of the display on the KK2.1 board. I would like to work my way up to more advanced things that these deltarotors can do. (Since the news I am calling...

I have owned nothing but the KK2.1 boards since they came out. Always flash it with this site. http://lazyzero.de/en/modellbau/kkmulticopterflashtool Since the last 1.9 version I don't ever have to change the P gain or I limit on anything with a 935kv motor. Or with a 430mm frame or bigger. I...

I found a material that is light as wood and strong as carbon fiber to make these drone designs out of. The CNC is lined up to cut these out. These will come with custom aluminum studs with brass knurled inserts that accept a 3mm screw. The lead out time for the production is 3 weeks before I...

oh to get my hands on a 3d printer. The sky would be the limit literally. As to fixed wings my very first balsa was a control line batwing. Anyone remember those? Foam is now the staple for fixed wings. Unless your using weed wacker motors. :) I see what the wood guy did was to mix printed...

Oak planned down to 1/4". Then I take an overhead drum sander from Performax and sand it down to 3/16". The top is Pine tooled the same way. I would like to get bigger motors, but my budget won't let me buy what I need. I have to use the 935kv because that is all I have laying around. I am...

The weight so far with just the frame and hardware is 367 grams. It should fold up with the props on. The wood when finished with laquer has proven to be pretty strong. The shaker pegs on the bottom are rubber coated. I'll post a picture tomorrow of it with the new legs on. Thanks for...

This is going to be called the Suitcase drone. (finally figured out why everyone calls them 250 class), Guess mine is a 304 mm class drone. I am calling it this because of the shaped of the handle on top. I have never made a folding drone before. I thought that by making it out of wood it...

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AHU2U7O?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00 I used this one and bought two of them. The remote gives some pretty awesome features. It does not turn off from the transmitter, but it does shut them off when not needed. I also suggest if you...

Is this a drone you bought out of the box or did you build it. If you built it I can tell you what "could" be the problem. I did a design not too long ago, I used a paint pen and labeled the esc 1,2,3,4 along with the motors 1,2,3,4 that I planed to use. I did this before going to bed that...

Hello everyone, I just recently got into flying drones and quad copters. I am hooked. I now own about five quads and have ventured into designing and building them from my workshop with regular shop tools. In my designs I am incorporating a two part system. The upper body is for the receiver...

If you can build you can fly it
