My fleet

This page lists my fleet.

SK450 (Dead cat mode from HobbyKing)

• Motors - NTM 28-30s 800kV
• Propellers - 10x45 plastic
• ESC - Turnigy Multistar 30A with BEC, stock FW, tried SimoK, but they got overheated...
• Flight controller - APM 2.5.2 clone from RC Timer
• Battery - 3S 3300mAh or 5000mAh. Both of them give about 10-11 minutes if flight.

This is my testing rig. I have small VGA camera and video transmitter on it. Learning to fly.

1. Initial setup

• Motors - Multistar 3508 650kV
• Propellers - 12x47 plastic

This bird is for carry camera. Not designing for anything bigger than GoPro. And since it's more expensive, I'm using Loiter (GPS) mode to fly it.

• Propellers - 15x55 CF
