Fly In My Soup Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) Three conversions planned here Front prop puller, Edf pusher / pitcheron soarer, and just for fun....a converted drone plane! First up (as I'm waiting for parts on the old rowing boat) is the drone plane conversion Seen peter sripol's paper plane flier made from a nano drone and thought sack it, why not try scale it up This is currently using the carbon boom and rear v wing which should hopefully provide extra stability.parts donated from a syma x8 drone, extra wing tips epoxied on, cavity hollowed, finally sorted longe range antenna on tx etc etc. this may not even work with a glider, let alone one this large, I've just bench tested it and of 'runs' so time will tell.... The idea is to take two back motors (1A & 1B) and lose the front two, keep the gyro, everything's mixed and ran off one sole stick ! (Left) Bit of fun whilst Amari plastics deliver the chassis for plastic fantastic build. If it doesn't work, this will be a dedicated front prop pusher. Here it is being field tested for glide capability with front motor setup earlier today Edited June 7, 2018 by Fly In My Soup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
