The use of an individual programmable channel, per each one of the 10 installed Servos, alleviates the need for fine mechanical trimming and centering. Can be used in staggered delay operation to reduce inrush current Symmetrical servo bay printed in wings requires a reversed signal for each.ĢxCH: Right Elevator & Left Elevator - Y Cable cable can’t be used, servo arrangement in fuselage requires reversed signal for each.ĢxCH: Right Flap & Left Flaps - Y Cable on single channel can’t be used, symmetrical servo bay printed in wings requires reversed signal on one side.ĢxCH: Right & Left Air Brakes - same problem: Servo arrangement in fuselage requires signal to be reversed on one servo.ģxCH: Nose and Wing retracts: Programmed on 3 individual cloned channels to avoid the clutter of a 3-way splitter cable. Programming Setup - 14 Channels used as follows:ĢxCH: Right Aileron & Left Aileron - Y Cable on single channel can’t be used. * Frsky FLVSS Battery sensor connected via SmartPort * Full range FrSky X8R 2.4G 16CH SBUS Smart Port Full Duplex Telemetry Receiver Coupled via SBUS to FrSky XM+ Mini Receiver for redundancy. * Flown with improvised 7S 3300mAh (3S, 5800mAh in series with 4S, 3300mAh) * Initial Battery: 6S, 5800mAh ( 2 Series 3S packs) - Tested and failed to take off. Remained in model to maintain optimal CG, acting as 160g tail weight.
* Tried and failed System battery: 2S2P 2Ah custom Li-ion pack (4 x 18650 cells) located inside the fuselage tail section, behind airbrake bays. * Final System Battery: 3S, 850mAh with Hobbyking 8A BEC located at front
More information can be found in builder/user guide document linked below: “Model Plan” or Printing files can be purchased here: * Actual Build time Estimate: 80+ work hours. * Combined Printing time Estimate: 400+ hours - Can be accomplished in a month of overnight print runs. * Project Duration: 2 Winters (November 2018 to last Thursday) This was a collaborative project taken by Carlos (Co-printer/builder), Jeff (test Pilot), and myself. So here is a single post summary about the build project and a bit about the model itself. With the 7 days grieving period over, I was contemplating posting a retroactive build log for this model, however going through the photos and videos was too painful.
