Oh man, that is pretty Christof, the powerdistro ring is a great idea with the detachable arm connectors. Hope that Paul and Jussi one day would offer such detachable arm connectors for those that didn't enter the 3d printing era
Great job!!

Christoff:

very well done!!. I like the idea of full modularity of the arms. It´s plenty of advantages for building, mounting, transport, reparation, etc, etc.

Congratullation.

Yea Christof, that looks pretty darn sweet!

Excuse me while I go find a towel to mop up the puddle forming on my desk...

Menno,

Viacopter is already working on a similar concept. But we cant stand extrusion printing so we did an integrtated solution with quicklocks and pcb instead...

Sure, as soon as we are done with the testing and have it ready for production. If it was only up to me i would show it, but i qm working with 2 other guys on this project...

Cheers

Jussi

Is there anymore progress with this build? And what about the motor and prop combo

Sorry that I stopped posting on the progress. Yes, The build was finished 3 weeks ago and I crashed the new bird due to a compile and combination of untested components.

I decided to assemble a test hexa, sturdy, and with easy accessible component locations.
Today I made a successful maiden with R340.

I am not familiar yet with the new scaling in logviewer.
What are the upper/lower limits for the mots since its not PWM anymore.
What are the healty ranges and limits for MOT_PITCH, MOT_ROLL, MOT_YAW
I would need some input here.

The MSG.LOG seems to note some wrong info.

Set new reference heading for Heading-Free mode
Armed -> correct
Altitude Hold engaged
Home position set
Position Hold engaged -> I understand, that first PH has to be set.
Altitude Hold engaged -> here I just switched to manual. Guess thats not correct. Should it not read "manual"
Position Hold engaged -> missing switch back to manual

All parts are here (for the PCB's thanks to Joerg aka aBUGSworstnightmare) and I started the assembly of the new power dist. I decided to skip the PWM wiring and go with CAN only.

a few hours later:

Some more hours later

And the result
