Hi Srinivas, I'm sure you'll find someone in Bangalore. Try ashok baijal and/or bmblb. If all else fails, I'm always available (for a Re 1 fee!) Airfare from/to Indore will probably be too much for your college to bear! Anyway, I'd be happy to hear details (if and when you can share them) Regards Title: Re: Experienced RC Pilot Required in Bangalore (April 14th-15th) Post by: topalle on March 31, 2017, 10:39:29 PM Haha, thanks a lot sir,
Nikhil (Spitfire) has offered to help us. Regarding details, our team from BMSCE was placed second in the virtual round behind the hosts SIT Tumkur, where we had to present the design in front of a panel. Flight round is going to be held on 14th and 15th. College is not sponsoring :P, we ourselves are pooling in money :banghead: Title: Re: Experienced RC Pilot Required in Bangalore (April 14th-15th) Post by: sinGN on April 10, 2017, 04:21:09 PM I will share this message with my friends.
Title: Re: Experienced RC Pilot Required in Bangalore (April 14th-15th) Post by: topalle on April 12, 2017, 11:07:39 PM Still Looking for someone. Competition is on this Friday and Saturday. Please help! :help:

I'm not sure if he is on this forum, but Mr. Emil Paul, Thanks a lot for flying our plane. We won the Best Innovation Award in the competition, for our use of additive manufacturing in the plane. Overall ranking's aren't out yet, but I believe we are 4th in the competition.

I'll share the design and pictures too! Title: Re: Experienced RC Pilot Required in Bangalore (April 14th-15th) Post by: topalle on April 16, 2017, 08:33:50 PM Some of the pics
Title: Re: Experienced RC Pilot Required in Bangalore (April 14th-15th) Post by: Swapnil on April 16, 2017, 08:35:34 PM Just saw the video. Awesome work!
Which particular components were made using additive manufacturing? Title: Re: Experienced RC Pilot Required in Bangalore (April 14th-15th) Post by: topalle on April 16, 2017, 08:36:21 PM Some more.
Title: Re: Experienced RC Pilot Required in Bangalore (April 14th-15th) Post by: topalle on April 16, 2017, 08:39:05 PM Just saw the video. Awesome work! Which particular components were made using additive manufacturing? We used a carbon fiber boom, which can be adjusted in length to vary cg before and after loading. For that, we made 3D printed parts to attach tail with boom , and boom with fuselage. I've attached a picture of them.

Can you point out the mistakes we made? we want to improve our plane.Title: Re: Experienced RC Pilot Required in Bangalore (April 14th-15th) Post by: emilpaul on April 17, 2017, 03:22:31 PM Your plane was fine, but the horizontal and vertical stabilizers which was glued to the fuselage was not stable. Your payload was fine and thrust required was also fine.
I had the opportunity to fly a similar designed plane where the elevator servo could not handle the load and gave way which resulted in a nose dive. Regards, Emil |
