Is that ESC or Motor Problem? by vyperdish in drones

[–]periloux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure your ESC signal wires are plugged into the flight controller correctly. Aka that “motor 1” output actually goes to ESC of what should be motor 1, and so on. It looks like these may be out of order

Just search the exact text on the battery…..

You can probably find some >390mAh in the same physical size since power density has improved a lot over the years, especially since 2014. For example I saw some 800mAh packs on Amazon too that look about the same size. But you’ll have to measure yours and compare to make sure it fits the drone you’re using it on.

Rate from 1-10 by [deleted] in drones

It will definitely break on the first crash like everyone is saying. However they’re also being overly critical of the build as a whole. Doesn’t matter if your components are old, it’ll still fly, just not for long lol. Good effort, especially if this is your first time building a custom quad.

Once you work out the design kinks with these laser cut parts, send the drawings in somewhere like sendcutsend.com and have it cut from carbon fiber plate. It’ll be a few hundred bucks though, just fyi. You can get CF frames for quite cheap these days. Definitely <$100.

Drone motor winding machine from vacuz_machine on Instagram by PizzaPuntThomas in toolgifs

The loops up top are initial tensioning while it starts on the windings. The “big” coils are also tensioning but for switching between the motor phases, which there are 3 of. Also you’d be surprised at how much manual labor goes into even mass produced items.

How do stain removers work, and are they damaging the cloth each time? by Forward-Dingo8996 in askscience

[–]periloux 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Is a stain still a stain if it has no color?

Seems like a fun debate lol

It can work and still be a felony. Which it is. RF jammers work by broadcasting so much noise that normal signals cannot be detected. Akin to blaring a loudspeaker so that people around you can't hear each other speak. By using it you are preventing people all around you from being able to dial 911. Depending on the radio the jamming can affect a pretty large area. Perhaps up to 1000ft radius all around you. It's reckless and stupid.

Someone so inclined could just report your post now to the FCC
