Sorry for my late reply! Looking real good! Wow... I wish my builds would have that kind of precision ;-) Paper building on 2d and 3d printing have one in common: Pretty rad rapid prototyping! I guess my printer problems are about to be solved (great support from the company)... Got to...

Hehe, thanks. Right now seperating the base material is giving me headaches, but I am sure I can sort it out with help of the community and the comapany's support. ...or get smaller servos :D Kidding. I am sure you'll manage to cram it all in. Im sure the tissue paper will work ;-) On...

Hehe, you can never have enough motors ;-) But there are some real monster brushless motors out there, oh boy... Yeah, it is impressive what a 30$ Rx can do, even though it is a bit of different then the radio systems with built-in screen (and good manual) :-) But with those chineese...

Hehe :) Your next project should be a GIANT version using 6mm depron instead of paper :-)

Awesome progress! I wish you the best for the maiden flight :D Though a word of advice :-) First flights tend to end in mayhem ^_^ Well, sometimes. On other notice, my printer allready reached the country, but customs are slowing down delivery... :(

Yeah, inrunner have some advantages... but comming from big planes and quadrocopters, inrunners just never seemed the right thing for me... High kV, great for Jets and such... but usualy outrunners have good pull and are good for some relaxed flying :-) Of course in the "micro cosmos" everything...

Sounds like the complicated programming payed out then! :-) I am sure it'll work, else there's allways the 5g bl to turn it into a rocket :mrgreen:

Wow fancy! I allways ment to build one, but the internet provides most info I need and for bigger models I just attach a pull-scale ;-) I am sure it will work, especially if the wing/weight ratio is good on that little plane :-) Well, it's model building, not flying, isn't it? :-)

That's what youtube is for, hehe. Back when we had our public station TV show, it was allways hard to find a free/cheap webspace to host videos... seems so long ago. Sounds like the little motor really has power! Great! As you probably do not want to go vertical, I am sure the little thing...

I downgraded to 2 Mbit and at the family there's only 1 MBit available, so I am used to "slow" broadband, but even with 16 mbit or more, usualy the problem is clogged servers. Flip the prop? Won't do any good :D While Hobbyking claims 36g thrust on 1s, 16 gram stock, 19g balanced, or 20g...

Should be identical/similar? http://www.rcmodelpart.com/photo/CT6A_English_manual.pdf

Sure, water and snow are the enemy of electronics, but if it's all covered up, little can happen- usualy... Mount it and test the little motor ;-) Nothing can go wrong. At those dimensions and power rates, not much can happen. Probably stings when holding your finger into the prop, but not as...

No real need to cycle lipo batterys in, as it was with nicd... They will have more power after a few cycles, but just using them out of the box is fine :-) Or just charge it up again. LiPos have (almost) no memory effect. The only things not good for them is too high discharge rates...

Nope, no worries! The only problem is determing which direction it will turn, but just try before soldering and no load... even though it does look nice with prop installed ;-) Perhaps use a bit of tape to better see the moving direction. Or hold+run slow.

ITM (Insanely Tiny Mount) :mrgreen: Motors have no signal cable? The ESC powers the coils to cause the motor to spin. Here a three pin example diagram: http://www.southernsoaringclub.org.za/BM-3-LRK%20Winding%20Diagram1.jpg So ->Red-Blue-Green-> would cause a clockwise spin. If you...

Thanks! Heh. I am sure we will. It will most certainly fly earlier then my new stuff, if I continue at this pace. Brushless motors: Trial and error ;-) If it runs the wrong way, change two wires- done. Beer cam: Hehe. I used to make macro vidos through a kid's magifying glass... If it...

Happy new year! Sounds like you're back on track... I know real life has some detours once in a while :-) Yes, the micro stuff allways looks simple on paper. Weight adds up so easily though. I'm still waiting for my 3d printer, I am sure I can use it for some neat custom parts... The...

Looks well planned, I wish my builds would look as tidy :-) What kind of camera is it btw?

Good news :) As for the 16 bit applications, will the Compatibility Mode perhaps solve the issues?

Whoops, did not notice my forum reply notification mail :p Computer problems suck. But even more, if you're the one knowing how to solve them... Spent the whole morning doing computer related stuff from fixing a wifi network setting to buying new hardware. Where did my day go? Good you can...
