Title: Hi, Myself Susavan from Coochbehar.
Post by: Susavan on December 05, 2019, 11:55:24 PM
Hi,
I am Susavan from Coochbehar, West Bengal. First of all I am really very excited to be a part of this amazing community. I have learned electronics & mechanics at a very early age when used to tinker in my father's electronics shop. Also my habit of experimenting with applied physics (experimented with high voltage multiplier, tesla coil, pulse motor, HHO generator and other small micro controller projects etc) lead me to buy small brushless motor which eventually got me into this hobby. I have slowly accumulated all the part needed & build my first model plane in 2017, which flew but eventually crashed into foam pile. Later successfully build & flown flitetest models & quadcopters. Currently I have following scratch built models-
FT Tiny Trainer built with depron & modified to pusher configuration 
FT Old Fogey
FT Mini Arrow (Still learning to fly this proficiently)
F450 size quadcopter using Multiwii (Arduino nano+mpu6050)My first scratch built quad flown successfully in initial period.
Another F450 with APM 2.8
250 size quad with INAV+GPS & all FPV equipment.
A Civil Engineer by profession I do not get much time but whenever I get I enjoy building & flying. Currently I am accumulating parts for building sub 250 gram endurance quad & plane .

Regards
Susavan

Thank you. Yes that's a wonderful hobby & addictive too.
I would love to share all my builds pictures, I have started uploading on youtube recently so videos will be scarce. The non-rc projects are dates back 2005.

Thank you sir,
Gone through your builds which are truly amazing & inspirational.
I have so far made (not so perfect) the following flitetest models.
Ft Old Fogey,Made with clear packing tape covered depron & hot glue.Didn't had the long pushrods that time so installed the servos on the rear of the fuse.Motor is common 2212 1400kv & with 3s 1000mah lipo its perfectly balanced on this CG point.
Ft Tiny Trainer modified to pusher configuration, used 2204 2300 motor,extended the front of the fuselage with foam & mount the battery to balance on CG .Attached some pictures.

Made a 450 size quadcopter with arduino nano & mpu6050 as FC & used Multiwii 2.4 at aound 2017. it has been installed with silicone rubber grommets found on cd rom drive of pc , the quad was extremely stable.
My previous Ft mini arrow has been destroyed now made a new one probably going to install a flight stabilizer.

Later upgraded the 450 size quad with APM 2.8 with M8N GPS which installed traditionally with mast. Later faced that strong wind does effect the FC so covered all this with the plastic bowl and put the GPS on top of that which also made the quad easy to transport. The underside of the bowl is shielded. I have powered the APM from BEC of the ESC no power module used.
