Title: Consultation for quadcopter Post by: STAVAN on January 20, 2014, 03:33:28 PM hello
this is stavan desai from gujarat. I needed your help as my final year project in engineering is based on quadcopter. We have finalised a list of products that would assemble up to form a quad but we are not sure if this is going to work rather will fly. Can you suggest us few things if we are incorrect anywhere? Here is a list of products we are enfolding. This is an incomplete list.We are going to add up the transmitter-receiver combo but if any other thing is to be added kindly guide us. Hoping for a quick reponse from you. Thanking you.

i think you should go for any battery above 35 c discharge... good luck with your project......and show us some pics too.... :thumbsup: Title: Re: Consultation for quadcopter Post by: lastRites on January 21, 2014, 08:59:08 AM Some points to keep in mind while buying parts for a quad:
:The total thrust of the motors should be atleast double of the final targeted weight of the quad. :The total discharge rate of the battery (C rating * mAh/1000) should be more than the max amp draw of the motors put together. :Buy atleast one spare motor and esc pair. You might also look at the multistar multirotor escs and the afro escs.
