Fly High




I was planning something which is very exotic for a few days and ordered some parts, So it will be boring till They reach me and mean while decided to make a T-copter, Was having some motors and esc..
T-copter is my favorate among multirotors.. Gone through many threads and all  to collect some datas and tips on making one.
And here is the build log not yet finished but almost finished the body part...
And of-course it will be putting in the sweeps  Wink Wink

And Some more pics of testing the electronics after the flashing of KK board..
Done lot of experiments and reference To make the motors to start atleast Giggle..
Then the next problem occurred that uneven response from motors, Fixed that by calibrating the esc's individually..
and the time is 10.30pm.. Grin
