He is saying that one of his motor always starts first ..... thats not a problem ... ones in flight it will be stable :) ;D ;D

Rahul i saw your video, you have to properly mount board on the frame first and then calibrate sensors by keeping your quad on the flat level surface before any test. If you put it on uneven surface it might not send pulse to all motors together. You have to set throttle range on each ESC individually and then together by connecting it to the KK2 if problem persists.

The two coloured arms are for helping know which is front of the quad, so I suggest put yellow arms in front and white in back rather than the cross you have done.

Thanks both. There is lack of space so confused :|
I will use colored props for that...no worries about the orientation. :)

@Dharmik sir- Yup understood that. Now searching for space to mount the electronics. literally no space is available.

Tried to use this material for making my landing gear as temporary but they are  just of no use.



Then came up with this.. and its super awesome.. really great.

for soft landing its cool . . . but for hard falls wont it be putting pressure on the frame ends ?

Rahulvyas

I will do soft landing :) haha, I mean I will try to land slowly if possible.. Actually I would be flying my first air vehicle(this quad).
What do you suggest to use? I really want to not exceed 150g weight for landing gear.

hahah first landing is never soft. even if you have alot of simulator practice, and this is your first so i suggest put vertical blocks of foam, so it does a soft land and doesn't come in between airflow. i have had my bad landings in beginning :p 2-3 times then you'll get a hold of it.
And most important, never turn off throttle directly :p i did that as i panicked as it just started ascending faster and i was testing in my room, but had foam in landing gear so not much of damage, just one broken pvc motor mount plate and a scratch on end of a prop :p

One of the more popular home brew landing gears are those squishy sponge balls (usually yellow with a smiley on them). Just push them on to the ends of the arms. For a lighter option you may use some sponge packing cases, the kind they ship most electronic items in. Glue them on to the ends.
It is the pervading law of all things organic and inorganic,
Of all things physical and metaphysical,
Of all things human and all things super-human,
Of all true manifestations of the head,
Of the heart, of the soul,
That the life is recognizable in its expression,
That form ever follows function. This is the law.

Rahulvyas

Glue sure? HOt glue you mean? Because I used hot glue gun with these wooden landings and then came off. couldnt even maiden it. :|
Any other option for holding it with the frame? Thanks..

Rahul nicely done.. :)
Please change the position of arms, The yellow must come together as well as white, How can you know which is the front part while flying.?
So Do correct that..
And Using sponge smilies as landing gear is also fine as Suggested by lastrites... It will look good also.  :) :)
All the best

Rahul hot glue is the best way, It may not work with wood.. But will work with these sponges...
Go for it....

I flied it to a height of about 10-15meters, but as I was in my home's garden, I couuldnt fly any longer and had to land..its toooo fast,cant handle it anyway!
What to do? a small stick throttle change makes it too difficult to handle.

Rahul it flies good,  {:)} {:)}
Be in mind that slow and steady wins the race... Hover it for several minutes first before taking up..
And also try to fly it low will make less damage while crash...
