QUAD monoblock 610 Retractable Legs

Postby afernan » Thu Jul 17, 2014 3:44 pm

I´m trying to build a "KISS" mid size copter ("Keep It Supper Simple" philosophy), easy to transport, cheap, gimbal capable and ... nice. AUW about 1.2 Kg (w/o gimbal), flight time about 25 min with 5000mA, 4S

Below some images of my new proposal, recovering all learnings from previous designs:

QUAD frame, 610 mm motor-to-motor
AQ 6 board, DIMU 1.1 & QUATOS
Retractable legs using RcTimer 15090 retractable motor system (as in my HEXA)
ESC: KISS 18Amps from flyduino mounted beside motor brackets
MOTOR: RcTimer HP4215, 420kv
Propellers: TMotor, wood (new product) 14x6
Available heigth for gymbal: 177mm

All brackets 3DPrinted in ABS - Carbon Fiber material

Hope you like

That's looking good. My new build is just about ready for some photos. I've scaled your monoblocks down to fit a 12mm arm tube, and I've modified your ESC32 brackets so that they can be stacked on top of each other. My frame is 500mm motor to motor, and the arms all fold back. It's running 10" props and 740kv motors. Also has a 3d printed 3 axis gimbal too. The only thing I'm missing is some 3d printed landing legs that will clip on to the 12mm tubes. Should be ready to maiden today.

Hi Glenn:

looking forgard to see your photos and results of your maiden flight. I tryed smaller tubes in a quad about yours without not too much success due to high frequency couplings between arms and motor exitation (I missed some calculations pre-design). I hope yours is out of this problem. Good luck
