So 433mhz radio, 1.2ghz fpv great, looks good for miles and miles. But a twin edf and a 5200mah pack for sub 10 minute flights
You said in the video you broke the prop. Did you mean the motor mount? If so have a look here: http://smallpartscnc.com/index.php?r...product_id=226 FX-61 is the same as the FX-79 mount. |

Also in black!
Just spent 2 nights laminating this. |

Its HobbyKing film - very easy to work with - much better at shrinking than solarfilm I have found, so easier to remove wrinkles. Also you can place layers over each other and after ironing not even notice its not a single piece - its a lot cheaper than solarfilm too - I have clear solarfilm on the underside covering the doodles (although that photo was before I did the clear film).

I've been putting in some work on my FX-61 build and it's coming along. My plan is to use this primarily for night flying missions. At first I was planning on using my old RVOSD in it but then I had an Eagletree Vector available so I was going to use that. But now I'm most likely going to use a Pitlab FC in this wing - it really is the best option for night flying as I can land in near total darkness with the Pitlab ILS system.
I'm using a SunnySky x2820 920kv for this build as I had a spare one lying around. It's a bit bigger than I would normally go but I've seen some people using very similar sized motors on long range missions. I was also going to use a 60A Finwing ESC but I am going to try out one of those Hobbywing Flyfun V5 ESC's with the active freewheeling. I wanted to use MarkQ's brilliant FC mount for this build but the Pitlab is too long to fit. I'll either have to whip something up out of light plywood or see if there's another 3D printed part I can have made. Endurance is going to be important for my FX-61 as two of the missions I'm thinking about are going to be getting images of upper atmospheric lightning and meteors. |

Looks like a good start to your build! My FX-61 has been a long-running workhorse. |

Finishing off my new fx61 build. Scratching my head with where to mount the runcam split camera. Current thoughts are in the camera hole, although arranging it to not point down so much as the cut-out tries to make it. Just trying to get it as tidy a build as possible. Suggestions?

I did that with my Runcam HD, and some one in this thread did it with a Moebius: |

At the moment I have that similar, but actually such a tower construction is an absurd thing ... The plane mutates into a barn gate and the possible flying time is practically halved.

My original fx61 (still flying) has a Runcam Eagle in the nose (cut away foam in front of the canopy fastner), plus a Runcam HD 2 slid into its bracket fitted to the lid. These two on a camera switcher built into the OSD board. But on this new build I want to make it as clean as possible with the Runcam Split 2S as the only camera. I would have really have liked to put a longer cable on the runcam split to better locate the circuit board part within the fuselage, but the 2S model doesn't have a longer cable available (new cable type). As it stands, the circuit will have to go directly behind the camera. My plan is for an upper deck to hold the LiPo, so loads of space underneath for Flight controller and Runcam split (and whatever else I decide to put in there). Looks something like this just now: Motor: NTM 35-48 900kv ESC: Hobbywing FlyFun v5 60A FC: Matek F405 Wing running Ardupilot Plane (latest dev ChibiOS firmware) VTx: Matek HV 600mA VTx Cam: RunCam Split 2S GPS: Matek M8N (with mag) Control/telemetry: Ultimate LRS Bee board (self built) 1W bi-directional with 19.2k bi-directional Mavlink telemetry One last question if you will - on my original FX-61 I have the servo linkage at full 1:1 (outside holes on both servo/control horns). Wondering if I may have been better with lower throws, so linkage closer in on servo horns. Wondering what you guys have for your linkages? Cheers, Paul Airspeed sensor - I may possibly add one but not so far |
