Now that does look strong...

How about making it so you can fold it .. looks like it would be fun getting it in and out of car

That`s really surprising how strong that is, I thought initially it didn't look very strong at all in all honesty

Question do I need 3CW and 3CCW props for Y6 or no ?
Planning to get those :.

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewitem.asp?idproduct=24278 (http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewitem.asp?idproduct=24278)

and what means R ? in this one ?

Post by: marcin on May 11, 2013, 02:47:14 PM
OK R means = right rotation !

Frame got legs...just need 15mm standoffs ,on picture are 30mm fitted..bit wide ,but that's how it will look like.

Nice frame Marcin.

Yes 3x CW and 3x CCW

All three on top go CW and all three underneath go CCW, or visa versa.
Title: Re: Y6 for extreme power setup. COST TO BUILD AROUND 50£
Post by: Jake Bullit on May 11, 2013, 05:33:16 PM
Some put smaller props on the top because of the reduced efficiency.
My Y6 has the same top and bottom though, never got round to testing the theory.

Waiting for parts etc:. I'm going slowly with my imagination.
This is how it will look on legs.
There are missing parts in that render ,but all it's measured etc:.
For is all I can do as HK and others China shops killing my project and I have to play waiting game with them ,but thing is good as I got time to improve and catch all bugs...I hope.
