A 250 is actually too small for fpv u should rather use 330
U would at least  see something in the air when it goes far away
A 250 is rather better at indoors

Why do you need to see it when on FPV.

 ^^ true,

On 250 only hardship is mounting items and weight sensitivity,but its doable because many are going for the small factor now-a-days with availability of parts specifically for that purpose. And you can carry it when your are holidaying/travelling or any other location to capture those shots which you would have never earlier or just have fun flying around.

And I am not much of a fan of absolutely gimbal stabilized video or very long flight times. 7-8 mins is about right for me, with some extra batteries if need be

See the pics how the tx,spare batteries,quad pack up inside a box, and it measures to the size of a 500size quad.

I wish to develop a tiny brushless gimble to these tiny beauties..... For super stabilised video

Well if you loose orentation and dont know where it is
U can look up in the sky instead of screen or goggles

Thanks to satya recd my mini carbon set today with CC3D and motors. Now I have to wait really long at the mercy of Malaysia n post i dont know for how long for the carbon props, ESC and Mobius. It was a breeze to assemble dry fit in just 15 Mins.  Quality of carbon fibre was very neat. Wonder if it's been cut at Satya ' s setup or sourced ex trade.

sundaram sir malaysia post takes 8-9 weeks after shipped status i ordered mine on 6th shipped on 12th july still not reached india.... very bad service and that too first time for me...

Last package through Malaysia post I recd after 3 plus months

Sundaram sir could you post a pic of the frame please.

Will do. This is from Sat ya ' s page

This frame is good. Exact blackout clone but 30mm larger so it can fit 6 inch props also. Even I got me one. Impressed with the quality. would have costed same to design and cut our own frame.
Frame size can be further reduced by putting arms one hole in and drilling new ones.
This frame is all over china and ebay.

Sir actually i was planning to get it cut on my machine but then the cost of CF sheets was very high and did not knew how to response would be hence i modified the design and gave to my supplier and he got it done for me.

@pravesh yes its all over the market now but just beware some of these sell same frame made using cheap carbon product. And some say carbon but send Glass Fiber.

Yes. That's why we bought it from u.
Couldn't take chances.

Exactly what I was hoping to hear Satya. Even I have heard a lot about the cheap Chinese clones with very poor carbon fiber.

I was pleasantly surprised to see your frame which looked Ex Trade quality cut but with the carbon fiber of amazing quality.

Thank you sir, I have been trying my best to get good quality products. These days you can find clone of every other product in china market. Its very hard to find good and trust worthy suppliers who would genuinely tell you whats clone and whats original.

Try my best

Satya, u have no need to worry, all are clones of an Australian blackout, but this clone is very good, maybe the best.

Plans were sent to Quadkopters.com for pricing. I chose carbon fiber for materiel and to my surprise the total cost worked out to below 1600/- delivered to my door.

Can I have the same plans cut on CF and delivered to hyderabad?

Hi 
i new into quad , after spending almost 4 months learning here invested into 2nd hand quad from rcindia itself
the following is already done
450 frame
hobby king 30amp esc. 
turnigy D2836 motors
10 x 5 props
2200mah 11.1 lipo

amp 2.5 (hextronix)
gps

avionics 7x

apm red and green light flickers

what should be done?

awaiting your help in taking off
thank you in advance.

Mine setup Fully and tested and hovers like a Charm in Attitude mode. Need to tweek the Rate mode for good flight.




PS : The Chinese Guy who assembled this CC3D board and accessories must have been colour blind to have interchanged the colours of wire of Positive and negative. because of which I ended up burning one receiver in the process of setup.



From the left the first lead was supposed to be negative/black and second lead from left was supposed to be red/positive.

The setup are as under

Frame Clone Backout mini
Flight controller CC3D (yet to add a GPS and OSD/telemetry). I can hardly find any more space to do so.
Receiver FrSky Tfr4 CPPM used.
Motors RCX 1804 2400KV.
Props 5x3 Carbon fibre (HK)
ESC Simonk 10 Amps Satya Gupta.
Mobius HD Cam
FPV Fatshark 600tvl min cam with 600mw 5.8Ghz tx and clover leaf.


Its a pain to plug a USB cable because of restricted space to tweek codes. I think I need to add the bluetooth module for the time being. Need to add tubes for the receiver aerial too.  God how i wish the USB port could have been to the sides.

AUW ?

530gms with1600mah lipo

A little heavy with that battery. Most people use 1300's, but I have found that the Wild scorpion 1500 weighs less than a turnigy 1300.
I realize now why people buy such expensive frames such as the Blackout, frame weight ultimately controls final AUW. 

Your presumption that its heavier is wrong Ashimda.  Please watch this video

Contrary to your belief the frame is lighter in comparison to some reputed brands. Without Mobious and Lipo some of them weigh up to 390 gms whereas this frame in same config weighs only 360 gms. Yes you are correct on that part that Turnigy nanotechs are heavier than some other brands. Lipo I have used is a Nanotech.

Thanks for pointing that out sir. That clone Bruce reviewed wasn't very strong as he proves in part 2 of that video. Hope to see some video footage of your mini, soon.
