I see power cables? Or overhead wires there, I think it is a hazardous choice of location you should be avoiding next time .....people suggest if I am saying incorrect!

hi iwincar
when i take pics it was not ready. later i stick all cables to upper wing with fiber. so no problem while flying.......... :) :) :)

Hi Rama Rao,

Nice build.  {:)} :hatsoff:

'iwincar' is trying say that the location you have chosen to fly the model (near electric cables) is dangerous.

Title: Re: My scratch built Mikey's FPV3 plane
Post by: ramarao on January 26, 2014, 01:11:39 PM
1200kv 800gm thrust motor and 30a esc . You can go low kv motor for high thrust

Cool bird! It was windy and you flew well!  {:)}

And what battery....whats the weight of your model including everyghing...I have used 10mm biofoam...what have you used..?

That looks pretty. Very good effort. {:)} {:)} {:)} :hatsoff:

Now, you should go ahead with a FPV flight with this bird. Agree with iwincar... Try choosing a location which is free of all these wires, etc...

Thank you Swapnil and all..

2200mah battery I used 2mm biofoam. Weight no idea I didn't checked . Ur model might be heavy because of 10mm biofoam.
Use low kv motor for more than 1kg thrust


What electronics you used for ur plane???

@ramarao if its your first plane!! if you flown a rc plane for the first time....just one word........ :bow: :bow: ......No words!!!

If in your first scratch build... you can fly it in such windy situation for the first time.... This is a huge achievment. Not an easy model, not an easy situation to fly. Keep building.... Keep flying.  :bow:

Hey Ramarao..sorry for late response.... was out for my sis wedding.... hey i finally figured out that my plane was too tail heavy... so it was stalling everytime i handlaunched it....I installed landing gear and tried a takeoff ...it flew for like 20 feet and bang.again...crashed... have chucked repairing it for the time being... working on a blue baby now
