Oh, snap! I just figured out I can use the same Bluetooth module from my K-Bar if I make an adapter cable. :D
..... the GUI (software) for Brain took a little getting used to after using Vstabi for 9 months.
First flight with Ikon shows smoother cyclic response, but cyclic gain might still be a little low to start with. Tail stops from piro are solid...
So far, from running setup and a few no-blade spool-ups, the thing seems to have stronger gyro feedback to the servos with more movement than the...
That was the first thing I looked at. All I have to do now is put it in place of the K-Bar, download the setup software, and finish it up. :D
Woo-hoo! :D[ATTACH]
Now that actually looks like fun!!
It came in with a broken connecting rod and a bent valve..... problem solved. :D [MEDIA]
The The static spark- it might have just been incidental when I was rubbing my finger on the belt.... of course its going to generate some static...
Woo hoo! Trigger pulled..... Ikon ordered. :D
Gone full FBL with K-Bar...... temporarily. Bird flies nice despite the K-Bar. I have it dialed in with moderate agility for now, but it's...

That would be my only real complaint about the Protos so far..... lack of adequate space under the battery tray and around the motor for ESC/Motor...
A few nights ago, I observed belt static as I run my finger along the belt while the Protos was spooled up (no blades) and was generating 4mm...
Today was the first day I've been able to make it to the park, despite the prevailing wind that's been blowing for the last few days. Up to today,...
Here ya go: [ATTACH] From what I understand of the wildlife in Australia, it must be like "Darwin's Deathtrap" down there!
That's what I thought. Thanks. .... so confirming the need for me to delve further into governor setups.
Thinking out loud here. Toying with the math for 6S: (1300Kv x 22.2v) / (8:1 ratio 15t/120t) = 3607.5 HS That's intimidating given the plastic...
1300Kv motor arrived...... one step closer to 6S. :D
Maiden was a success. With gear ratio set at a more docile 12:1, I went with my usual conservative 2S setup for trim flight..... easy enough....
