Cheers to your maiden flight! What kind of ESCs and power distribution board are you using? Are those the 420 or 490 kV U7s?
I disagree that 3515-400's with 11kg is too much. I had more then a year and a half with them on two machines both carrying Epic and trimmings. Now with U's its really a non issue, but you could easily run 3515's with that weight without problems. I did and would pick U7's now but back in their time the 3515-400's worked wonderfully.
hi i have an cinestar 8 with mt3520 400kv t motor cf15 and 60a tmotor esc also running wkm my booms are 500 can i have 12kg totall weight with the above combo?
Ebad Using a typical elevation of 2500 feet above sea level and 1 10000mah battery I'm calculating 68% throttle at hover with 15X5.4 Tiger props. If you went with bigger booms you could run 16X5.4 props and be able to reduce the hover throttle of 58%. Your actual location where you fly in respect to elevation can have a big effect on these numbers though so they might not be accurate. Where do you fly?
I am trying to find the postings on the analysis of a Cinestar 8 c/w Tiger U5 motors.......here..... on Freefly Forums.... can someone point me towards the right postings....... there are so many to dig thru...... search tools are helping somewhat... but still looking..... not sure of the AUW but the design is for a 2 axis BGC system carrying a GH3 or GH4 I think.
I have documented my U5 build pretty good here http://forum.freeflysystems.com/index.php?threads/my-new-mk-heavy-lift-copter-project.3091/
