Title: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on April 30, 2015, 11:07:51 PM Multiplex twinstar ii build
I recently ordered a twinstar ii from rcd and will be starting the work on it soon , as of now iam in the middle of getting all the parts . I will be receiving my kit tomorrow (hopefully) and my setup will be as follow - 2*emax 2210/13 2*turnigy 30A plush esc 2*haiyin 3s 1300mah batteries (not to sure yet) 2*master airscrew 8*6 three blade props Or 2*master airscrew 8.5*4 two blade props 1*futaba r2008 receiver My motor on the two blade props should not go above 15A , since i'll be extending the battery to esc lead I want to keep this margin . The build will go rather slowly as i have orderer the medium and thick CA from tower hobbies and it will come only by 12-15 of this month .

Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 01, 2015, 10:42:57 PM I got my kit today and it was a bit scattered around , i have seen multiplex kits before they usually are neatly packed in individual bags , in my kit all the parts were packed inside the fuse , iam yet to take a part count but i hope everything is there . I am yet to receive my servos (hs-81) and the medium and thick ca aftger which build will proceed. All the rest of my stuff has been gathered up and is on the table.
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 02, 2015, 05:38:09 PM Got my servos today , never knew a shop named as sumeet instruments sells hitec servos in india , great shop with equally good service , the other two servos came in from rcforall and the packaging box was beaten up (yet to test them) but i hope they are fine . I removed the extra elapor from around the nacelles, also i dont want to overload this thing with stickers , please let me know is this wing design looks fine .
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 02, 2015, 05:49:11 PM The wing design let me know as to how it looks .
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 03, 2015, 02:25:35 PM Did a wee bit of more work , added the elevator and rudder outer and inner snake sleaves and the push rods , also statted adding the decals. Will complete the hatch assembly today itself . I will also have to cut and grind the spar covers to fit the servo and battery leads , will do that today itself .
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 03, 2015, 07:51:38 PM Just hating how slow this thing is going , joint the wing retainer screw parts together , they have a clip system so you push until they lock up and then pour the ca . Completed the canopy locking system , they are a tight fight you need a bit of strength to take it out . Added a few more decals .
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 04, 2015, 02:01:04 AM Since i was extending my battery to esc wires i went a size big (16awg-14awg) for the extension wire , the higher gauge wire would just not fit , after a bit of digging and cutting it finally did . Not the neatest but it works for sure . Will be adding the servo and the servo wires tomorrow.

Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 05, 2015, 04:45:16 PM Got to love RCD problem solved :hatsoff:
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 05, 2015, 10:23:17 PM Did some motor testing , iam pulling 175w at15A constant with a 3s 2200 mah battery . I would probably use 8*4 or 7*6 props later on as of now 8.5*4 is for the maiden.
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 07, 2015, 06:05:30 PM Did some more work , installed the wing and elevator servo , cant instal the rudder servo as its giving me some problem . Have added a bit of more details to the wing .
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: sahilkit on May 07, 2015, 09:55:51 PM details to the wings look good
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 08, 2015, 02:30:36 PM Thanks bro
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 12, 2015, 08:30:28 PM Glued the fuse together , glue the spar covers . Will be done with the tail feathers in a short time .
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 15, 2015, 02:23:06 PM Done with every thing , the space in the fuse is a bit cramped. Will maiden it by this sunday.
Title: Re: Multiplex twinstar ii build log Post by: Rcjabalpur on May 17, 2015, 06:55:59 PM Had three nice flights at my farm , but this thing puts it nose up after 30% of power . I will probably have to change the motor thrust angles .
