I've been trying to learn about consumer drone "engineering" but it's starting to seem like there's really no such thing. There's component engineering and component assembly, which means it's really no different than building a PC or RC car or any other device with standardized interfaces between control logic an actuation. Is that right or am I missing something important before I start selecting the right combinations of frame, control circuit boards, motors, etc?
Good video but at 12:21 in the video the special clamps for the landing gear on leg 6 & 3 are not in place. I assume they are still in the box. The only way to get them in is to take the frame apart again. At 14:05 they are there and you attach the landing gear. You should have left that in so people will know....
Never bukket plug your battery leads to plug into your vehicle. In a crash the leads can pull out from the vehicle socket and short together. Everyone knows what happens when you short a lipo. Solder your battery connetion lead on the the vhicle directly to the power distribution board.
nice video! , but i strongly believe you could have managed the power distribution without that many cables, theres a little power distribution board you conect all positive and negative and comes with an rx60 plug :D
Checked the library for the song but couldnt find it can you share the title with us? Please dont the same thing as you did for 3 or 4 others that asked.
Thanks for great video I want to build a drone to use my Panasonic GH4 camera, which frame and tools do you recommend? could please your recommendation? Thanks
hey Nice video .Can you suggest me am a bit of confused. My HMF Hexacopter 550mm AUW is 2500gm. What motors and props can I use so that I get enough power at around 75% throttle??
My 2 cents I have built the Tarot 650 good product good Quad Tarot 680 pro good product good hex Tarot T960 sane as the T810 just longer arms. I don't like it. I have replaced 3 locking clamps. I just don't think well designed.. the folding system is better on there smaller versions. One other thought I want to point out. you need to decide the end mission before you select and would only select this if the mission was to carry much more than a go pro. Another thought. The landing gear is in the way and there are 2 solution. mount the camera way out in front as they did or add a retract system but that adds cost and weight. there are better solution but not in any I have mentioned. As for stability it is more complex than just size and I believe my T650 is just as stable and I can carry the go pro and enough batteries to stay in the Air 45 minutes no problem. Yes of course you can carry more batteries on the T810
OK HeliPal... You need to edit your video a bit... Where you add the landing gear... If you are using the kit indicated in the video which I think is stock... LOOK AT THE INSTALL FIRST... BEFORE mating the two central frame pieces together for the hex... What a pain in the rear to take apart the two stationary boom mounts and near disassemble the central frame to get the 2 gear pieces in. Other than that this was a great instructional video!!!
Christopher Payne Thanks again for your support and you advice is very valuable to us. We found that it was not perfect either and we will further improve it in the coming video. Many thanks
The hexacopter in this video is a T810 but it's out of stock now. You can find other available hexcopter here: www.helipal.com/multi-rotors_frame-set.html
HeliPal Thanks for reply. They are only frame sets. I asked for all ESC, FPV, rotors and other things you used particularly in this projrct? Thanks a lot again.
