Re: 95 inch depron Loco build thread
Get it from aircraft-world.com It takes about a week to get them, but no problems when it comes to additional costs like tax etc.

Re: 95 inch depron Loco build thread
Hi guys I am still alive but had absolutely no time for this project lately. During weekends I am often travelling to various indoor events around Switzerland.
Anyway good news about the Phx 85HV, in collaboration with flyingwings.ch we now import them directly form the US! I am thinking about the wing retention system. I will probably use flying wires like on the small Loco (see attached image) and make the wires detachable at the fuselage. This would have two beneficiary effects: easy and durable wing retention system and avoid torsion of the wing. As wire I would use Spectra kite line. I will try to get the Monster flying for the one year anniversary of this thread! That would be the 24th December! |

Re: 95 inch depron Loco build thread
Here go a few more pics...
It came out much heavier than I had hoped: Fuselage is 2028g, wings are 745g and two 5s 3300mAh packs plus a 3s 910mAh pack for the servos are 945g... Doing the sum you get 3718g I'm converting the video in this moment

Re: 95 inch depron Loco build thread
Edit: here is the definitive video
I'll have to change rudder and elevator servos, notice in the video when I put it in knife edge... I accelerated and had no control over elevator and rudder anymore! Last edited by fdix; 12-27-2007 at 03:09 PM. |
