Testing, Flying and Crashing!

I just finished with the build of my FPV Tricopter Grin, its body has been copied from the frame made by David Windestal.I always wanted a multicopter for fpv since I started flying FPV, they consume lesser power than a quadcopter and the viewing angle is increased in the front if you would want to use a GoPro or other wide angle cameras! After about 4 hours of build time and 2 days of trimming( Tongue) I was able to control it and it fly's very stable and takes off on about 15-20% throttle on a 3s and about 10 % throttle on the 4s. I will add my FPV setup as soon as I can fly it easily and smoothly! Thumbs Up My setup is :

Flight control board : KK 2.0

ESCs used: HK Afro 30A Multicopter escs

Motors: HK Multistar 2216 800kv Brushless motors

Props: 10x4.5 CW/CCW SF props

Servo for the tail: MG90S Metal gear servo

Ubec: 3A with Noise reduction

OSD(for fpv) : G-OSD V3

Batteries used: 3S 2200mAh 25C Turnigy Nano-Tech
                      4S 2200mAh 25C Wolfpack
