ZOHD screwed that servo issue up. Glad to know to buy the PNP not the kit. How do manufacturers not realize this. Bad move on their part!

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Would be simple to include a link to the right tail servos, or an option to buy the kit with them

@IanF-FPV Месяц назад

@@AndrewNewtonAlmost makes the kit seem like a crash kit for the pnp. Now I need to order a set of their servo before I finish this build.😢

@Bellairvideo Месяц назад

Wonderful indeed #1. Very well explained & flown on such a lovely spot.

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Thanks mate.

@DavidTaghehchian Месяц назад

Looks like this plane has grrat potential. Looking forward to your bench top discussion video.

@jimross898 Месяц назад

Good tip on the PNP vs Kit tail server gear issue. It would make me very sad to find out after the fact as I doubt I'd have servos that worked. A weird quirk of design. And what an awesome flying spot!

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

👍🏻

@AerialWaviator Месяц назад

Very nice first look and first flights. Was had to tell difference between manual and auto/cruise as video for both seemed smooth. Lots of great info. (both in video and the description) In past ZOHD has made available servos, esc and motor available as spare parts, but that inventory dried up with logistics challenges of past couple years.

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Yes everyone is out of stock here in Aus

@TheCatFather01 Месяц назад

Really helpfull tip in regards to tail servos, thank you🙏🏽

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

No problem 👍

@northernfpv9562 Месяц назад

I noticed the stall on my maiden too. It recovers very quickly but it stalls at a higher speed than I’d expect. I flew it on cg with a 4s 3600 Lipo. You can’t glide in - power has to be kept on the whole time. I also noticed that it wants to pitch up as you add power. It wasn’t the perfect maiden, but with some time and tuning I’m sure it’ll be fine. Launch was zero drama with no fc.

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Oh, good to get your confirmation about the wing dip.

@rjung_ch Месяц назад

Thanks Andrew 👍💪✌

@dronepilot260rc Месяц назад

I’m liking it! Thanks for the info! 🎉

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Glad to hear it!

@AdrianoCasemiro Месяц назад

As always, some beautiful flying, right? Also, nice model for fpv. I wonder if it could take a full fledge gopro onboard while flying this nice.

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Yes, space designed for it, but maybe not the latest larger GoPros

@pilotmiami1 Месяц назад

Yes.yes.bravo.thenks

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

😃

@peterross9541 Месяц назад

"so fresh" and again..nothing forgotten to explane, and to talk about. A question for the VTOL-Version : Is there enough place in the front for placing the lipo more forward, to beware the right CG again..?❤

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Good question. Might need more weight forward

@peterross9541 Месяц назад

@@AndrewNewton YES.. more wheigt in the nose, cause of the YawMotor in VTOL-VERSION..

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

@@peterross9541 But more weight forward from the tilt mechanisms, so it may balance out.

@gazalazzz6989 Месяц назад

Beautiful👍. It seems smooth and steady. Because of the good tune of PID parameter of the flight controller, or the performance of the plane itself?🤔

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Stable by itself. Good design

@evilredd Месяц назад

Hi Andrew I’m having some issues with my SB405Mini…I’m on analog and at launch (38amp) my OSD completely disappears. I noticed in your video you only pulled 7amps and it’s a digital system which shouldn’t change anything I believe. I’m almost leaning towards the FC not handling the amps as I have been trying other bits from other models with no luck. I normally use Matek and this power setup is from on another air frame using the Matek FC without issues.

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Vv is unfiltered so at that high throttle there is probably too much interference getting in to the FPV circuit. I would add an LC filter to the VTx power line.

@BrainDeadEngineering Месяц назад

I want one. Its Amazing it fly's so well with Anhedral ! you think Didedral would just be a natural thing to do !

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Forward sweep, not anhedral

@Sebas-lk3jv Месяц назад

how about the new fixed wind tail plane from atomrc called theer. hope to see you test it soon. Getting the altus soon.

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

👍🏻

@dronepilot260rc Месяц назад

Wondering if it would do well with some 6042 Gemfan flash props ? 🎉

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

Yes I must buy some

@OZSCQUADS Месяц назад

very nice. would love to know how you got OSD in your video. Or is that a avatar thing?

@smithe68 Месяц назад

If you are using INAV you can have OSD with a few different systems, I’ve got it on DJI O3 and Caddx vistas. There are options for analog and Avatar as well.

@AndrewNewton Месяц назад

WTFOS hack to make all the INAV OSD elements available, and the WTFOS web interface has an app to overlay the OSD on your video
