Sounds interesting!

Nice one Andy, sounds like you'll easily meet your target!

What do you say though Brucey, a 15 second time penalty for using a pussy launcher?

By soon, you mean this weekend don't you ;D

Cant wait to see some footage :)

S*d. Found I had a bent prop shaft from yesterday. Decided to see if could straighten it with pliers and sheared it off :laugh: Think I might shelve this project for a while and get on with Solius!

I vote you turn your attention to making your Falcon fly at a respectable pace. You missed out on all the fun on Saturday!

Really like the work you have done on your 'hub'.

Is it just going to be a circuit passive board or will you add anything to it? Eg. 12v and 5v regulator and lc filtering on board so it powers all the equipment?

Perhaps it could also contain a video switch with multiple video inputs?

There could definitely be a product that I would buy which I could plug in-between all my RC/Video/AutoPilot system to aid integration, if done right should allow easy swapping of your individual components and allow for fast reliable builds.

I'll fly it! ;D

Brucey · June 17, 2014, 03:33:24 PM

Nope, fly back this weekend :-( does the FPV gear work on it? My los flying sucks

Brucey · June 17, 2014, 03:41:27 PM

Cool, you've managed to cram a lot in there! Hopefully the weather the weekend after is ok, but don't wait for me, you can do it!

I'll fly it! ;D

I'll land it! :D

If you're around at the weekend I'll spot for you Andy. The Barn Field is huge with a decent mowed landing strip so would be a great place to maiden it.

Brucey · June 17, 2014, 10:36:26 PM

You'll be fine!

Brucey · June 23, 2014, 06:36:23 PM

Rather than hack it up, did you reduce the throws? Just thinking my wing has huge elevons, but tiny throws.

Flyboysee · June 23, 2014, 07:28:20 PM

Bren must have told you about the time trials comp at Mad Dogs. Are you coming? :)

That's astounding!
