RC AIRCRAFT BUILDS Electric Powered Sky Climber II – a rebuild story Reply To: Sky Climber II – a rebuild story

#3746

As flying @ “The Field” was cancelled today I spent some more time on the Sky Climber rebuild.

Motor has been refitted along with the 40A Turnigy Plush ESC. Reset MAX power (something I usually forget) and all tests OK. I remembered to leave the prop off this time after nearly decapitating the dog when testing Kermits Radian glider (the whole nosecone & motor fell off).

Also designed & 3D printed a new Gimbal & GPS antenna mount.

 

 

The pitot tube for the AirSpeed sensor has also been fitted

The pan/tilt gimbal has been repaired & fitted to the new mount

      

Not far to go now
