Hi Guys,
taking on my next AQ build. Had a little decision phase which FC to use but since i see the most feature on AQ the decision was easy.
Features of the new Build.
- Small X8
- Removable Arms plug and play
- Wire rope vibration isolation, between the center paltes.
- Nacelles for the booms. Not sure yet but willing to experiment if they bring any advantage.
- ESCs at the motors mounts for optimal cooling.
Goal in general.
- Carry a brushless gimbal, Gopro to NEX*
- Long flight times, Pack on a 8000 mAh or 10000 mAh 6s
- 14 to 15 inch props.
I am aware that this setup might lead to low rpms and less stability in wind or descends, but in times of brushless gimbals
its not that important anymore in my eyes.
More important it a vibration isolation and that it really works ! Only finding to expensive solution or companies that weren't willing to sell their products to me it came to the point that i made them myself.
So everything start up with designing the center plates around the wire rope vibration isolators. The wire rope isolators can be produced with a 3d printer standard home PLA ABS extruding model.
around this the rest was designed and created.
Wanted to have a clean distribution two cooper rings isloated by a 3d printed case.
Removable arms:

At the moment I am at this stage : 3D design is 2/3 finished, most parts are printed and vom acrylic plates are used at the moment instead of carbon that will come later.
Actual progress touchable
