Hey wayne ! I'm building a drone from a storm 8 and implementing 16 motors in the design, but one set up on down on the ends, how did he use the naza flight controller for this, I'm using the same flight controller and am working on how to have the one input go to both motor by splicing the wire before the esc's, how did he do it ? thanks !
In this case, al the blades are up and we just set the ESCs up in parallel using a Y connector. You should be able to do the same thing, just reverse the rotation direction on the bottom motors so they turn the same direction as the top motors. you will also make sure all props pushing up.
@@waynemia07tx Thanks for taking the time to respond. And Thank for the info, its going well, at this point making sure the motors will work together, and start experimenting with morning. Thanks ! by the way tell your friend i said cool bro, hope he had fun, I'm having a blast !
Not at all. It has a 20cc gas engine up front. Servos were moved to the tail to help with the balance and get rid of the wood pusy rods. Oversize tires also contribute to weight balance. There is no extra weight added to the plane for balance. Only the battery position is used to tweak the balance.
Very helpful, thanks. Quick question, the spring coil which goes between the spark plug and the connector, is that really required? My metal spark plug connector does not seem to fit tightly onto the spark plug if the spring coil is in.
It should be there. If not, you could have intermittent connection. Make sure you press it on completely. May take considerable pressure. Also, correct plug?
They still make this kit although another company purchased the rights to it. Carolina Custom Kits is the name of the company. Don't know why Hobby Lobby quit selling stuff like this. I took a trip in there this past weekend looking for R/C airplanes, rockets and helicopters. They had NONE and only a few models as well. This came out in 1967 from what I have been told.
I bought an Enya SS45BB Ring from my LHS for 30 bucks still with the original box, paperwork. Inside it, from 1989, was an invoice. The engine was purchased at a Hobby Lobby that no longer exists located about an hour and a half from where I live now.
Wow! I've got a Evolution 20GX that I bought cheap with no ignition module. Can I ask how well it ran in the model? Full power was smooth? Transition from idle to full throttle worked OK using the petrol carb? I might have to try this!
Hi , what a good job you made with this aircraft . I am just in the process of fitting an asp 91 4 stroke to my corsair. Do I need to put any side or down thrust on the engine when I fit it. The manual offers no help at all with this. Did you put any down or side thrust to your engine when you put it in? Many thanks John
Yes, All conventional prop aircraft typically require down, right thrust.This has to do with the slip stream and the rotating prop. The plane manufacturer should have recommended the amount of thrust change. If not, you can start with about 1 degree down, 1 degree right. Then when you start flying, you can go through a sequence of flight tests to determine if you have the CG, engine incidence, and other factor set correctly. Goof luck.
I prefer to use the stick as in the video. I have electric starters though. If an engine is tuned well, it will start easily with just a flip or two with the stick.
Hi Wayne, can you tell me if the tail wing incidence is same as the main wing, I'm rebuilding one that someone tore the tail off of, I don't know where to set the tail wing, in drawings on the internet it looks like the tail is higher on the trailing edge. Can you help, Thanks.
I am using an OS Max glow plug instead of a spark plug and ignition. It lets me eliminate the ingnition and sage weight. It is still gas but it is on a glow plug.
I had a .91surpas on a blue one.. don't ask what happened to it , cuz I won't admit to nothing.. Now I have the same engine on a red one , it is not finished.. I like the way yours looks.. No cowl , taildragger and solid color.. Did you have to reinforce the main wing?
The axle needs to make contact with the support for 1/2 of the rotation. This provides a magnetic attraction when the poles are opposite. So the current in the loop switched on and off during each rotation. The insulation on the wire breaks the circuit but the coil continues to rotate until the current turns on again.
do you have the schematic of the control circuit? im making a DIY servo but im using a L293d IC and a 20K Potentiometer but im struggling to get the 3 wires(power, ground and signal) coming out to control the servo.
Your plane looks like a 2 man operation. The Buffalo FX-29 is too large for my local park, though it's smaller than your wing, and I could launch it by myself. This video was helpful in the respect that I have the little sister of this plane, the Wide Glide. I've had problems getting the thing to fly, now I can see i have the motor too far back.
The Illusion, the next size down from the Mothership is on order. It's going to be a light build. I want to power it with one very large 2S battery and a light motor. I did watch your build videos and got some good ideas. Thanks for posting those Wayne.
@@waynemia07tx When you say "use the same channel" If you google an image of the Naza-M face label, it's marked M1-M6 & F1&F2 where the ESCs are connected. Do both ESCs on the same arm connect to the same terminal? I am building a 16 motor drone and can't find info and I don't want to burn up any electronics. Thanks
