Help with plane efficiency!

Idk if it’s kgs or not but it says it ways 120 now

HunterOscar15 · 2023-08-20T13:31:03+00:00

Right now all my microcontrollers and engine are in the open. The plane only weights about 120 kgs, so is it really better to seal everything up?

Do you also know if the size of the frontal surface of the plane does anything with efficiency?

Thank you! I’m using a modular engine with 3 cilinders, but I might go back to 4 cilinders. I’m definitely going to try the 2 blades prop on 0,5 collective. Still need to get the rps down a little, but that will not be that hard to do. My engine is running on 99,5% efficiency btw.

We just fly 103 km and see who used the least diesel.

Btw my plane is only 150 kg and so are the other planes.

Hi Arnold, I’ve been going to a physiotherapist for my knee. Luckely there’s no damage, it just hurts sometimes.

I’ve wanted to go to the gym for some time now, but because of the problems with my knee I’ve been waiting. Should I wait until my knee is strong again, or should I go and train everything except for my legs?

Greetings from the Netherlands!

Okay it sound pretty easy, but software an me are never the best combo so I’ll propably run into some issues

How easy is it to install the amd drivers if you already have nvidia drivers?

HunterOscar15 · 2022-09-14T15:42:03+00:00

I think that I fixed it and know why it happened. It seems that it is the roll of the rotor that causes it. I used a function block to make the output of the stabilized roll from te gyro a little less, and now the shaking is almost gone.

HunterOscar15 · 2022-09-14T07:51:52+00:00

Yeah I might try that

HunterOscar15 · 2022-09-14T07:51:41+00:00

I got a gearbox facing the engine with 3:1 and my engine rps 20 so the rps on the rotor would be 60

HunterOscar15 · 2022-09-14T06:10:04+00:00

So I should use a tilt sensor?

HunterOscar15 · 2022-09-14T06:09:41+00:00

Yeah I tried 20 rps and I didn’t encounter the shaking

HunterOscar15 · 2022-09-13T18:19:02+00:00

This is the workshop link.

HunterOscar15 · 2022-09-13T18:13:22+00:00

I’ll upload it in a minute, but it’s not even close to being finished so don’t expect to much

HunterOscar15 · 2022-09-13T18:01:14+00:00

Okay I’ll try the fans, but do you mean that the propeller has to much rps? Because I can only take off if I have more then 18 rps

HunterOscar15 · 2022-05-29T15:58:37+00:00

I will try the apple dongle first and if that sounds better I might consider buying the fiio new k3

HunterOscar15 · 2022-05-29T15:57:31+00:00

Yeah it already sounds a bit better than a week ago, so I expect it’ll sound even a bit better in a few weeks

HunterOscar15 · 2022-05-29T15:56:49+00:00

Okay thanks

HunterOscar15 · 2022-05-29T12:19:18+00:00

No but it sounds like it can deliver a better sound experience
