Title: Sectro : Small coro wonder
Post by: rcforall on October 28, 2011, 09:54:46 AM
After a long time I  just thought  of building a plane for the heck of it without any plans .
Just draw and cut  :giggle:  no planning . Pure simple joy  of building and flying  
So revisited the MOSS concept .
The result is SECTRO :

Wing Span  : 600 mm
Fuse length : 600 mm
Wing Root cord : 225 mm
Tip Cord : 75 mm
Channel : 4 channel
Motor : RCFORALL 2805/1400 kv
Battery : RCFORALL Purple power 7.4V 1300 mah ( 800 or 850 mah should be good enough as well )
Prop : GWS 9050
Servos : RCFORALL 9 gms x 4
AUW : 350 gms
Aero foil KFM 1

The name sectro is because all the coro components as a sector of a circle in some way.

BTW : she easily carried around 120 gms of payload without any issue I think she could push to around 50 % of here AUW  to carry additional payload.

Here is a Photo.

Will try to upload a video some time soon.

Sai uncle thanks for testing with coro.
We are waiting for the next level model after Mr. Moss.

Kalyan don't know what you mean I have been doing coro for the past 4 years if I remember right .  :headscratch:
In fact my profile shows I am into SPAD's ( SPADAHOLIC ) :giggle:

There are many options for those wanting to go beyond MOSS now a days .

But yes SECTRO is a step above MOSS its a  4 Channel and can do all basic aerobatics and being 2' x 2' possibly could fit into a largish laptop  bag  ;) ;D ( but you might have to take extra efforts to fit it in though ).

Actually what inspired me to try it out was again the IIT Tech fest Mumbai problem statement of Max lift with Max 600 mm dimensions.

Venkat wont be able to go to sp4mm3r this year due to being in 12 std , but thought why not give the problem a shot as I found it interesting since we are doing FPV as well and it it is very relevant from a UAV perspective .
