Hi Subu, Hope u might like these.............. I just loved it        













Seems like there is a lot of experimentation going on in this subject..........
may u find SUCCESS............SOON!

The last one is really cool !

hey guys check out the newly updated website of the vtol here
and please comment

hey guys massive amount of work done on this last few days
on the latest model (completely new one)

it is ready for its first air mode flight (of the model) this sunday hopefully

the reason for increase in size was ofcourse increase in budget

the sunday test setup is as follows

2*turborix 222w bl motor (keep forgetting its name)
gyro gy401 to stabilise roll and piezo to stabilize pitch
tthe tilt mech is not installed as still waiting for brackets

control surface setup

ailerons act as elevator, flaps and ailerons all in one (took me 2hrs and 20mins to set up v-tail and programme and trim and center everything from tx )

and the normal elevator is beefed up by15%

and the dual rudders also beefed up

and the biggest mod is the wing itself

as the osprey wing is under const.

the wing used is e-starter with some sanding as it was more or less like the osprey wing other than a few adjustments to the airfoil and how i got the motors installed is still a big mystery to myself

the polyhedral in the wing is reshaped to fit motor in it

the big wing mods are

the ail-ele-flaperon system
the motor mount
and the airfoil and when the model was test glided i felt like it was the easystar gliding its way through
it was a it tail heavy but i had not put battery in there so it should be fine


please guys suggest on what you do before testing your scratch built/experimental plane.

ps the gyros will be turned of first then dialed in  

will try to put a pic today or tomorrow

I liked the second last and the last video..

subu waiting to see some of your latest mod pics man..so when is the deadline to finish it ?

all the best ! Am sure you will nail it..

cheers

try your local lathe machine operators, they usually keep aluminum rods and do the machining as well.

Or try these guys:

I can send you hollow aluminium beams for cheap prices.

Nice to see an old thread being resurrected after gaps of 53 months and 10 months.

Tanmay - what dimensions and what prices? That would help us comprehend 'cheap'.


Regards.

aaah my dream project

Actually i am working on this and by cheap i mean 50 rr for 4 feets

What are the dimensions of the beams? 4 feet or 48 inches is the length, what are the width and height?

It is 1cm x 1 cm beam i have to cut it.

I plan to do a 4-blade VTOL .. Later . But intelligent 4-blade

this project i built for students

and
not done FFF so far as working on cg.
using kk2.1 with OA vtol firmware
i enjoyed building this model then flying .

I had built it earlier.
.A failed attempt of mine

Hey subu did the project completed ?
