Title: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: Imperial fire on November 29, 2017, 07:13:32 PM So I made it a couple of days ago.
Flew it thrice everyday...had to get rid of servo for another project so made a final video on it. One of my cheapest builds ( excluding the price of the 2.5g servos!!!.. >:( ) https://youtu.be/PGtVJuAR5OI Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: Imperial fire on November 29, 2017, 07:14:14 PM Flight video.

Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: Imperial fire on November 29, 2017, 10:54:25 PM Well firstly u need a sharp almost new blade...
Anything less than sharp will not cut thermocol properly... Then use zero number sand paper to round off the leading edge very gently...patiently.... If you can find some other foam to make that's better....in my town only thermocol is available..so had to make do Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: sanjayrai55 on November 30, 2017, 04:44:09 AM {:)} {:)} Congratulations :thumbsup:
Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: SI74 on November 30, 2017, 06:20:47 PM Congrats! Which motor and prop did you use?
Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: Imperial fire on November 30, 2017, 08:39:31 PM Its a avionic motor... 2226 2500 kv....weighs 25 grams..if u use a 6*4 prop u get 290g thrust on 2s and 520g thrust on 3s...
I didn't use s.f prop...just normal E prop... I am using a 12A ESC...20A would have been better..👍 Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: PRANAVK09 on November 30, 2017, 08:42:15 PM Beautiful nice plane {:)}
Planning to make something cheap like this. :thumbsup: Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: raghul nambi on November 30, 2017, 08:43:38 PM Whats the cost of the electronics used?
Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: Imperial fire on November 30, 2017, 08:56:34 PM Motor 630
Servos 350*3 ESC around 600 And some c.f worth maybe 150... Servo too expensive....you can use 9,,gram servos...but they are heavy compared to 2.5 gram servos.... Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: raghul nambi on November 30, 2017, 08:58:18 PM What battery do u use?
Title: Re: 3d rc airplane using thermocol Post by: Imperial fire on November 30, 2017, 09:00:21 PM Its a 2s 300mah... By orange( sold on robu.in)
It was a 3s ..but I got rid of one cell coz I just had a 12 A ESC and not a 20A ESC... Airplane weighs around ,190 gram or so..can hover vertical at around 70% throttle..... |
