MCPX proto with microbeast

[fury118]

My new wiring is much more clean, it's not so hard

[fury118]

All is connected, but i have still the same problem. The receiver cut.
I'll try another receiver

How is the power getting reg'd to 3.3V?

Perhaps under load the voltage is dropping out of the rx's range or the servos, mb or wire are starving it for current.

I'd be testing it with a largish 1s too or parallel a couple just to eliminate the lipo for now.

I change yesterday my receiver, and it work better.
I think my receiver had a problem.
I made my first fly this morning. The bird is shaking a lot.
My anti rotation guide moved, my receiver is hanging. I will prepare my receiver and re re wire

A question. Can you easily set 6 degrees of cyclic pitch to the J point of the MB setup?

[fury118]

I use 2 middle servo connecting point to have a symetruc pitch in positiv and negativ.
At about 6° (it's not so easy to mesure) the led is blue.
It's not optimal but good enough.

To mesure the 6° I took my xtreme pitch gauge, i try not to touch the blade, put the gauge frame horizontal and the clip the balde in the gauge. The weight of the gauge make easily move the value from few °.

I will change the motor and the esc. All the elec on a 1s batterie is to much.

Anyone interested in a HP08S 16500KV + XP-12 + prog card ?

[fury118]

So i will go on a 3s liftbag version to avoid all my elec problem.
i am designing a new frame to balance the 22gr of batterie.
i'll probably put the main motor in the back, in fact i'll invert all the 3 servo and the motor.

[fury118]

All is order !!

Just have to wait..

[davidvm3]

sounds like something out of a frankenstein movie! Looking forward to seeing the results!

[fury118]

not bad for a name,

I am on my new frame, which will be a bit lighter than the old one.

I had a small calculation today, after few PM with lifbag.


Heli / Rotor RPM / Rotor Diameter / Blade speed

X7
Goblin 2200 1600mm 650Km/h
T-rex 500 3200 980mm 590Km/h
T-rex 450 3800 710mm 510km/h
t-rex 250 4700 460mm 400km/h

MCPX liftbag 7400 240mm 334km/h

It seems to be not bad.

It make a beautifull linear curve

I can't wait to see how this thing flies, Nice work!!

[flixdachef]

Some of you guys have seen this video but it's a good one. Stay motivated. We want to see this thing fly!

Edit for super fail on embeding youtube video LOL

[Griff1]

The project will come in handy when the 130x modding starts, im looking forward to your progress.

I am looking to have a flying heli ready for the 19-20 mai for the 3D cup in france

The CAD is ready, i will make the frame before next week, i am waiting all my orders and will build it fast. Wait and see.

I want to give the heli to test to good 3d pilot to see what they think about it.

Hey...I'm a good 3D pilot!!!!
Well, not really.

I crash so hard I need to put three Ds in THUDDD!
Does that count?
