Title: My new Quadcopter has successfully flown Post by: avigyan.chatterjee on February 23, 2015, 11:35:05 PM Dear friends,
Yesterday I have successfully flown my first home made Quadcopter. I have purchased the parts from Quadkopters.com . Here I have used 4 brushless motors of Angel A2212-13, 980kV 4 SimonK ESCs of 30A X525 Quad frame HK kk2.1 flight controller HK T6A 6Channel Tx-Rx 1 QK LiPo battery of 11.1V/2200mAh 4 Propellers of 10/4.5 4 foam balls etc. It has give a very stable flight. I would like to give Thanks to Satyada (Mr. Satya Gupta of Quadkopters.com) for his support. I am given the Youtube attachment of the flight vedio. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uYjbkRKPkI (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uYjbkRKPkI) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqPetRpgCzY (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqPetRpgCzY) Title: Re: My new Quadcopter has successfully flown Post by: sooraj.palakkad on February 24, 2015, 06:06:32 PM Congrats, and wish you safe landings :)

I also need suggestions from other members for better flight. Title: Re: My new Quadcopter has successfully flown Post by: SK1701 on February 24, 2015, 07:21:21 PM Nicely done :thumbsup: The first flight always feels great.
Have you done the PID tuning? That is very important for stable flight. Is this a + mode quadcopter? Title: Re: My new Quadcopter has successfully flown Post by: ashimda on February 24, 2015, 07:25:32 PM Congrats on the maiden. Please dont take off with so much throttle. These quads are dangerous and many people have been hit by their own quads.
As SK1701 has mentioned, tune the pids and try to hover in one place. Where in Bhadreswar do you live? Title: Re: My new Quadcopter has successfully flown Post by: SK1701 on February 24, 2015, 07:46:28 PM That's a very good point. You need to ease up on the throttle. Try hovering and complete the PID tuning before trying such flying. Has self level been set up your kk 2.1?
Title: Re: My new Quadcopter has successfully flown Post by: avigyan.chatterjee on February 24, 2015, 11:45:12 PM The PI gain and limit that I have used are given bellow:
Aileron Elevator Rudder P Gain 50 50 40 P limit 100 100 20 I Gain 40 40 0 I Limit 20 20 10 Self Level Setting: P gain 20 P Limit 10 Acc trim roll 0 Acc trim pitch 0 But till now I never exit of turn off the self level mode and I feel that in this mode no roll, pitch or yaw is working properly except the throttle. Is there any requirement to exit from the self level mode? if yes how? Title: Re: My new Quadcopter has successfully flown Post by: avigyan.chatterjee on February 26, 2015, 10:35:10 PM Dear Ashimda,

Title: Re: My new Quadcopter has successfully flown Post by: avigyan.chatterjee on February 27, 2015, 06:36:26 PM Dear friends,
First of all thanks for your appreciation. I have bought all the parts from Quadkopters.com . You can contact Mr. Satya Gupta. I can give you the URL http://www.quadkopters.com/product/arf-kit-rtf-kit-and-frames/arf-525-kit-with-kk-2-1-controller/ (http://www.quadkopters.com/product/arf-kit-rtf-kit-and-frames/arf-525-kit-with-kk-2-1-controller/) I think if you can purchase it, it will be the most cost effective and very easy to built and fly. I have used my old HK T6A 6channel Tx-Rx. Though I am a beginner , if any kind of information u need feel free to contact me.

Title: Re: My new Quadcopter has successfully flown Post by: avigyan.chatterjee on February 27, 2015, 10:33:21 PM Dear Sahil
will u plz tell me what do u mean by "fail-safe setup". How should I do this? If u kindly suggest me the safety measures that should I take during the next flight it will be really helpful for me. Is there any video about this matter? I have already posted the PI gain tuning data that I have done in my kk2.1 board. Is it correct?
