TRICOPTER LR - Long Range FPV, 1h+ Flight time, Foldable multirotor - Build Video. David Windestal 2019-05-07 | GET YOUR Tricopter LR from: https://rcexplorer.se/shop/Dronin setup video: youtube.com/watch?v=uZQvEJu7vG4This is the Tricopter LR (Long Range). Efficient, nimble, transportable and with long flight time, those were the goals when designing this copter. The low drag and long flight time make this copter very well suited for long range explorative flying.There are few things more exhilarating than flying high and far. Navigating by landmarks, flying above the clouds at sunset, diving down mountains and exploring the surroundings is the name of the game. The thrill of knowing it’s only your own navigation skills that will get your copter back is very addictive, not to mention the incredible views you get to experience.The Tricopter LR ticks all the boxes when it comes to this type of flying. The frame is lightweight, allowing for more battery capacity to be carried at the same final weight. It also swings up to 8″ propellers, which give close to double the prop area compared to a 5″ quad and almost the same disk area as 7″ quad! With only 3 arms, less lift is wasted, due to less air-blocking arm area. The LR also uses narrower (but thicker) arms to reduce that drag even more, without sacrificing stiffness.QUIET!Not a fan of the screaming 5″ quads? The tricopter LR is very quiet compared to smaller crafts. The larger, slower spinning propellers generate a lot less noise. They are also more efficient, generating the same amount of lift at a lower RPM. Instead of that 5″ high pitched screaming, which draws attention and disturb others, the LR makes a low tone “wosh” sound that doesn’t carry far and is much less annoying to be around.LightweightThanks to the slimmed down design, the tricopter LR frame only weighs 112 grams. That is almost half of the already lightweight Tricopter V4! Less weight means more battery carrying capacity, which means longer flight times!The kit includes a tilt mechanism made from fiberglass reinforced black Nylon which was forged in the fires of Mt. Doom (ok, maybe not), making it almost indestructible. It’s the same plastic used by high-end propeller manufacturers! This tilt mechanism is designed to give minimum air resistance and be as simple, precise, light (only 10.6g) and durable as possible. The design features a spline directly integrated into the part. The recommended servo simply slides right in and gets tightened down by the same screw that is used as the pivot point. Simple, strong, and easy to assemble.Easy to transportDespite having large 8″ props the Tricopter LR is easily transported. If you pull on the front arms they fold back making the whole copter super compact! Small enough to fit in a backpack with plenty of room left over for all your other gear. The best part is that no tools are needed for folding and unfolding! This makes transportation easier, and it also helps prevent damage in a crash. The arms can simply fold back and absorb some of the energy on impact.Plenty of spaceThere is extra space in the frame for all kinds of electronics. Mounting a large video TX, GPS, full-size receiver, and such is possible without the frustration and Tetris playing associated with many other builds.Video capabilitiesCapturing beautiful imagery is a huge part of flying long range. That is why we went to great lengths to make sure that no props are visible in the image (when using the recommended setup). This was no small feat on a copter swinging 8″ propellers on a compact frame but we did manage it! Now you can share gorgeous HD video without distracting props or obstructions. The LR is designed to carry both the smaller GoPro session cube style cameras as well as full-size GoPros even without a 3D printed housing.Long flight timeThanks to the recent advances in motor technology we now have smaller, lightweight, more powerful and efficient brushless motors. The 6S battery trend on mini quads has lead manufacturers to make lower kV motors in the same small form factor. The Tricopter LR is designed to take full advantage of this, using 3S (for long flight time) or 4S (for bonkers flying). The recommended 1600kV 2207 motors weigh less than half of the motors previously used on the Tricopter V4, yet they are more efficient. That is even more weight saved that can go towards battery capacity, which together with the higher efficiency of the motors equals more flight time. We have put together a super efficient electronics pack for the Tricopter LR that, with the right battery and a light build, makes it possible to achieve over an hour of hovering flight time!Specifications:Empty frame weight: 112 gramsMotor to Motor distance: 350/310mmSize unfolded: W380 x L290 x H54mmSize folded: W65 x L290 x H54mm (not counting propellers)Recommended all up weight: 650-1100 gramsFlight time hovering: ~40 minutes (3s 5200mAh)RCExplorer.se - Exploring the RC world, one crash at a time.

The BICOPTER - TERMINATOR inspired RC Copter - only 2 motors? David Windestal 2018-09-29 | Get your Bicopter here: https://rcexplorer.se/product/bicopter-kit/Electronics kit: https://rcexplorer.se/product/bicopter-electronics-kit/Build video: youtube.com/watch?v=Ot3Em2lI9y8Sorry about the Audio :/Join the forums: https://rcexplorer.se/forums/Cameraman: Terje LarsenEditor: Christian KapperMusic by Mitch soundcloud.com/daataaSay hello to the RCExplorer Bicopter. Yes, Bi as in 2! This copter only uses 2 motors and 2 propellers to generate lift.Pretty cool eh? But you don’t get much control with just 2 motors, you need something more; Servos! Pitch and yaw are controlled by tilting the motors in either the same or opposite direction.This makes the RCExplorer Bicopter look freaking fantastic flying around. In full forward flight with the motors at full tilt, it’s reminiscent of the V22 Osprey.The RCExplorer Bicopter is designed to look as badass as possible, and I think we succeeded. The frame is entirely made from high-quality 3k twill weave matte finish carbon fiber. This makes the RCExplorer Bicopter frame lightweight, durable and worth drooling over.Just picture yourself rolling up your flying buddies and pulling this thing out. Guaranteed instant +10 to street cred and coolness (guarantee not guaranteed).The sharp-looking backend not only looks like a formidable stabbing weapon, it also makes the copter fly better. The weight is distributed more evenly and the leverage arm is longer, which should make the pitch axis more stable.Get yours here: https://rcexplorer.se/product-category/everything-bicopter/RCExplorer.se - Exploring the RC world, one crash at a time.

The weight is distributed more evenly and the leverage arm is longer, which should make the pitch axis more stable.This thing is not like a crazy locked in quadcopter that obeys your every command. No, you have to fly this the way it wants to be flown. It is not easy and it will take some getting used to. Tuning is tricky, fiddly and might vary greatly depending on the electronics used (Pre-tuned starting PID’s available for the recommended electronics kit.). You can get yourself into weird situations very quickly and it currently doesn’t like flying backwards.What it does like is forward flight (both slow and flat out), lazy turns and hovering (as long as it’s not drifting backwards). You can do tricks as well, but be ready for some fun recovery manoeuvres. It is a very different flying experience compared to most other crafts.Building the RCExplorer Bicopter is also a bit of a challenge. Designed to be as cool looking as possible lead to some awkward spaces. Cable management skills will for sure make things easier, but you will probably still want to curse us a couple of times during the build.RCExplorer.se - Exploring the RC world, one crash at a time.

FPV - Chernobyl/Pripyat & the Antonov 225 (worlds largest airplane) - RCExplorer.se David Windestal 2018-04-17 | Get your Tricopter V4 here: https://rcexplorer.se/product/tricopter-v3-kit/2016 I got to join the Rotor Riot on a trip to Ukraine. The trip was truly amazing. The guys from UADR (Team Ukraine) were the best hosts you could wish for.We got to go in to the exclusion zone in Chernobyl and visit the ghost town Pripyat that was evacuated during the nuclear melt down.We had permission to fly wherever we wanted within the town and we all got great footage. It was amazing to explore this place and drink in the history and scale of this disaster.The UADR also hooked us up with a once in a life time opportunity. To fly around the Antonov 225 and AN 22! The worlds largest jet airplane and the largest propeller aircraft in the world!Being an airplane nerd this really was crazy. Why the heck would they allow us to fly around this uniq aircrafts? There is literally only 1 in existence! Well it's built like a tank for sure. They even allowed us to climb on top of of both the 225 and AN 22! And I don't mean like be careful only step here one at a time thing. Noooo they let everyone that felt like being up there be there at the same time! Probably had 30 people walking around on the top of that plane at one time. Mind blowing.Easily the best trip I've ever been on!When I got back home it turns out that I lost all footage from inside Pripyat :(. Took me quite a while to get over this (hence why I'm posting now)Huge thank you to Chad Nowak (FinalGlideAUS) for allowing me to use your follow footage.

Why you SHOULDNT wear a RING when working with BATTERIES David Windestal 2018-03-18 | Watch the anodizing video Giaco and I made here: youtu.be/rNjV6Jn1v_8This is a PSA. You should never wear a ring while working with batteries. Especially LiPo / LiFe / Li-Ion batteries. If two terminals touch the ring you will burn your finger. Even 18650 batteries can toast your fingers. The severity of the damage can range from a hot ring to the ring getting burned stuck to your bone.All that makes sense right? But is it really that bad? Lets connect a battery to a ring and stick it on a sausage.

RECREATING the MYTHBUSTERS ROCKET CAR (with a RC CAR!) David Windestal 2017-09-28 | David, Henrik, Johanna and Sylvia try to recreate the epic Mythbusters episodes where Adam and Jamie convert a full size Chevy Impala to RC, strap some rockets on it and try to get the car going so fast that it becomes airborne.We don't quite have that kind of budget so we settled for a 1:10 scale HobbyKing Desert Fox RC car. The rocket used is the same as in the Rocket knife series. Providing 54kg (120lbs) of thrust for 0.4 seconds.The car weighs about 2kg so you can imagine the results.After the first failure David mixes a slower burning charge which makes the car controllable under rocket power!In the end I think we came pretty close to recreating the original Mythbusters episodes. Enjoy!Link to the HobbyKing Desert Fox RC car used in the episode:hobbyking.com/en_us/h-king-desert-fox-1-10-4wd-desert-truck-rtr.htmlWatch how the rocket was made:youtube.com/watch?v=ACZhodrJhs4&index=2&list=PL_UNjO94bqmVbS92S5j_t7i_TtpA6U53wMusic used in this episode:Delicate Space by Neilcross - From Audiomicro.com
