Whoops, my tricopter turned into a Y6!

Y6 Build update

Weighs in at 1254 grams with no camera or video transmitter systems on it.

Tiger Motors MT2212-16 750 KV

Props: APC SF 11×4.7

Battery: 3DR 5100mah 3s 8C

ESCs: Turnigy Plush 10a BLHeli flashed

Reciever: FrSky x8r-ii

Flight Controller: the evil DJI Naza M V2

hovers for 18 minutes

 

In the next week am planning to add better landing gear, OSD, Gopro, 3 axis gimbal system, video switchter, fixed flight camera, and a 2nd 5100 mah battery.  It should be a great FPV system.

    Looks great @Rotorblade! What are you using for motor mounts?

    I’m going to be using QuadFrame mounts and boom blocks with rcexplorer arms:

    Hi David
    Really got inspired by tricopter simplicity

    Can you advise my setup please
    for nex 5 or anything on this weight as 600-800 gramm camera on gimbal

    Planing to use beams/boom of alum 6mm 1mm thick round
    motor with HL W42-25 610kv as it is known for super efficiency and high trust on sf 14 3pitch

    is anything like that possible, or what direction to look
