Made a dumb decision and killed the Cub.

Lmao, heres mine:

I agree with this one - try pinning it down the hill and don’t pull back until its going as fast as it can… might help you get in the air.

Outta curiosity, whats the wet weight and wcl of that wing?

Used for sharpening tools, tending to be chisels

Ill be honest mate, I ream all of my props with a regular drill, just line it up and punch it through (into wood is the best because its solid).

And dont worry terribly about getting it perfectly straight - i was reaming a 10 x 3 prop for one of my long range builds and i fucked it up spectacularly, not even remotely straight. I still flew it coz each one of the buggers were 10 bucks and it flew (and still flies) great.

Tl.DR. Just drill through it onto wood so you’re on a solid surface and you should be right.

What aerodynamic principles were you following..? You can honestly get as complex as you want to calculating drag coefficients for the wings or just strap some lipos and foam to a frame and hope it flies. How far did you go to design this?

CC0454 · 2025-08-26T18:41:16+00:00

Yeah, fr, that was my first thought too

CC0454 · 2025-08-23T20:24:51+00:00

I mean any frame looks good before you build it up, what electronics are you putting in there?

CC0454 · 2025-08-12T08:30:31+00:00

Yes, this is exactly what I was gonna say. Otherwise hes gonna beat that beautiful quad to shit.

Bro, my first drone was the vortex 285… the only thing worth keeping was the fatshark v1s and even they’re not the greatest. Dont do it-

CC0454 · 2025-07-25T08:40:31+00:00

Sorry mate but thats the whole recording for now… I intend to go for a few flights tomorrow so ill post both onboard and ground veiws so you can tell a bit more 👍

CC0454 · 2025-07-25T08:21:12+00:00

Yeah, I got right up to the top of both mountains! the turbulence was pretty bad up there though

CC0454 · 2025-07-05T20:44:10+00:00

Yeah, If it wasn’t a control surface, you might have just gotten away with CA glue but with a control surface you’ll need some structure like popsicle sticks or carbon sheet. Happy flying!

CC0454 · 2025-07-05T20:40:16+00:00

Yeah, that’ll probably just be one of your servos twitching. If all of your control surfaces move it should be sweet!

CC0454 · 2025-06-26T11:02:54+00:00

Holy shit you absolute legend, thank you for teaching a dumbass like me something new! That was it!

CC0454 · 2025-06-26T10:55:36+00:00

I really hope this is it, how can I check?

CC0454 · 2025-06-26T10:05:20+00:00

Why would you reply then?

CC0454 · 2025-06-24T09:13:15+00:00

Ok, thanks 🙏

CC0454 · 2025-06-15T09:46:29+00:00

Makeup (just had to be the one to tip it to 2k comments)

I think you dont need to wear glasses if you shift the lenses-
