TriCopter - QuadCopter - Project

OH I LIKE THAT. very tempted to get you to make one of me. very nice design there.

Witch one… ?

I don’t cut them yet… still my Texas friend… LOL

I like the design of the last. Supposed to be a Y6 or a Y4.
Six motor setup 3 on top and 3 botom

Four motor setup 3 on each top arm and one on the tail witch is under.

The Y6. but i do like the idea of the Y4. very interesting.

its made me think of a design that looks like the Chinook heli but with two other rotor sets underneath. could that work. with 4 rotors in total.

Y4 is interesting since you have less hardware to buy. 2 motors and 2 esc… :wink:

There is something about a 2 rotor that is implemented in the Multiwii software:

You need to have tilt motor on each. Just like the “avatar” movie

Mostly final design…

The hexacopter is done for the design part…
Should be cut tomorrow if everything go as plan…!

I am working on a PCB to light thing on my Bird.
Mostly for the little Quad and Y6. But can be use on others.
It will be driven by the same Arduino that control the bird itself… :wink:

The PCB file are sent to be made… !

Hi Eric,

Would these work for a Y6?

rcecho.com/aeo-model-1550kv- … motor.html

I want a big Y-6! :smiley:

Jim,

Yes you can look at that thread (post in particular)
rcgroups.com/forums/showpost.php?p=19603759&postcount=20727

I don’t know if it’s the better way to do it.
You don’t have much space between the blades and that can cause turbulence.

Here are some motors of the same type at HobbyKing

If you want to go “BIG” why don’t you buy 6 of those:

Mouhaha…!

My HEXorcism is Cut and should be there soon… :wink:

Whoa! Not that big! lol

Hihi… !
Sad… i would have like to see it… :wink:

Me too!

Dude,

That thing is massive! Check out this youtube vid. They have to put a huge amount of weight in there to keep the prop setup in place. Cool!

Should build one of these:

HaHa… something to kill someone… :wink:

First flight of the Y6 setup of my G10 Quad frame… :wink:

DiaLFonZo LED-Ring is Alive…!!!

Hi DiaLFonZo,

I’d just like to say, awesome work with your copters! That Y6 looks so cool, makes me want to build one myself!

Maybe after you’ve done the Hexacoptor i saw photo’s of you should make this.
