RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Today's FPV test. The entire flight was made with the video goggles. Didn't even break anything :)

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Here are a few pics of the completed UAVP5 frame, including a couple camera configurations. I REALLY like this frame, so much that I don't think there's going to be a UAVP6. I've crash tested this...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Here's what I did with your tail booms Nick [8D]

I finished the rev-5 frame today, and am pretty darn pleased with it.

Anyway, as you can see from the pics, the total weight is 8.6 oz,...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Meters would be more impressive, but it was feet, and that was about as high as I'd want to fly one of these.

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

I ordered some of these tail booms, and they're great. Thanks for all the info. The UAVP3 frame (sq CF tubing with holes drilled in it) is starting to split and have problems, so I'll be building a...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Hi Nick,

What threw me off on the arms was the color. Are they carbon fiber or aluminum?

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Hi Nick,

It's alway interesting to see how other people assemble frames. It just seems like there's an unlimited way to do it, and they all seem to work just fine. What are those rods made out...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Thanks. I saw your new "discrete" board on the UAVP forum, and can't wait to hear how it works out. If you are so inclined, I'd bet you can sell a number of these to folks who don't want to mess...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Rev-4 has flown, along with rev-4a :) The new frame is about 6 oz heavier, but it's so much superior to the rev-3 construction that it's well worth the weight. I think I can take some weight off...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Me or the UAVP :)

I've done the semi-official max lift test, where I put the model on a scale, weigh it down so it can't fly, then read the scale with zero and 100% throttle. I measured 81 oz...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Here's the rev-3 frame that I'm currently testing. It's smaller, at only 18.5" from rotor to rotor, but the flying weight is only 25.8 oz with a 2000 mah 3S lipo battery [8D]

Cheers,
Rusty

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Greetings,

Since this was my thread originally, I guess I'll use it for UAVP updates.

I decided to go with standard PPM ESCs, and built my first UAVP with 3- ADXRS300 gyros, an LIS3LV02DQ...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Thanks Dutchie. I just ordered two pre-populated UAVP boards and PICs last night, so I guess I'll give them a try. The sensors come from a place in the US, and are much cheaper to buy here than to...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Hi Nick,

Thanks for the comments. I think I might just try the UAVP with standard ESCs for now. Best I can tell, I can change to the I2C version later if I need to. There are some extra mods...

RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Hi Mike,

I really like the open design of the UAVP, because it's much easier to tinker with. At this point in time, the software doesn't support the pressure sensor, or GPS, but the hardware...

Anyone here building a UAVP?

Greetings,

The subject pretty much says it all. I'm thinking hard about ordering a couple UAVP boards to play with, and wondered if anyone else has one. My biggest question is about the ESC. ...
