This is a very nice setup. Would it be possible to modify it to include the bell housing of the motor?

What are you using for the shaft? I have a similar setup using foam blocks and 2 razor blades but never had a decent shaft so I used a drill bit.

If you look below blade, you will see a hole for bearing.
Just make some sketch, and I can make changes in no time.

Here I used shaft from HK prop balancer, but you can use CF rod or anything straight.

Seems to me, that would be the way to go, that is, balancing the Blade with the motor bell housing attached.

Here's a short of my Tri, sorry about the bad quality.

Wow, That was an amazing smooth flight. What motors are you using?

I know what you mean, But here is little problem, if propeller is not in same position, it will be all unbalanced. Tomorrow I will show you pictures of new prop balancer. (Here is local time 20:37)

What motors are you using?

Good Motor in my opinion.

Its got 8 motors but do you think it works like a tricopter or Quad?

A quad, no motor tilt servos. The Mikrokopter and UAVX can be set up this way too.

Of course, was just looking at the V like setup. Although the two rear motors could both be angled out so to yaw with motor differential...

Oh no, Gary Mortimer will be here in a minute enthusing about that ugly thing. He seems to have bought one.

Some one posted (from youtube) an Octocopter. To me, the more you put on the more the cost. The tricopter is a poor mans wonderful toy.
