20 minute quad copter

24gram motors, Quadcopter, scratch build Comments Off on 20 minute quad copter

Made a new frame from carbon only 16 Grams

Crash at the end of the flight was intentional so I didn't hit the student that walked past as the crooked frame and wind was pushing it toward the library building.

Built while diner was cooking a bit of old wood from the garden and some hot glue.

+Quad config
AUW 354 Grams without camera
340 between prop centers

Some sustatined flight frame is not too straight so it tended to wander also pretty gusty wind
