Title: My first quadrotor! Post by: Ganeshram on December 23, 2012, 12:07:22 AM Hey folks,
Let me introduce myself, I am Ganeshram doing Research on Robotics(Parallel manipulators) in Robotics Laboratory, Engineering Design, IIT Madras. I got into this hobby recently and wanted to start with Multirotors. I will keep you posted on this! Help me improve :) :) Check my channel to know more http://www.youtube.com/user/gan3ram4scientist/videos?view=0 Title: Re: My first quadrotor! Post by: satyagupta on December 23, 2012, 09:37:37 AM Very nice stuff, video looks nice too. Can you share the build details, like motors, ESC controllers etc. And there was very low freq oscillation and you can hear the oscillation sound from motor as well. But i think you can remove that using tuninig your quad. But still its very nice fly and build :thumbsup:

Had a nice time flying this in Chennai Air Show! This is my combo, Flight Avionics:HK Multiwii Propellers: 10x6 3-Blade propellers (Sai -Rcforall) BLDC- 880kv from (Vasu-AEW) Frame- X2-450 Quad Copter Frame (Vasu-AEW) ESC: 30 Amp (Vasu-AEW) The best part is the frame which doesn't break so easily. http://aeroworks.co.in/store/index.php?id_product=7&controller=product I initially started with KK board with Nandhakumar(The ornithopter expert!) and evolved quickly to KK2.0. It is an excellent board to start with! It is easy for a beginner to quickly put things together using kk2.0. Multiwii pro is slightly tricky but manageable! Title: Re: My first quadrotor!

Somebody has built this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N64KOQkbyiI take a look if it interests you. Title: Re: My first quadrotor! Post by: Ganeshram on March 17, 2013, 05:12:10 PM This is where it started....
I have changed my PHD guide as he was not interested in helping me pursue my dreams... Got seriously addicted to this hobby :) Now my research is going to be on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles / Aerial Robotics. My hobby is going to be my research now !!! Title: Re: My first quadrotor!
