Hey, What size are those boom clamps? I could probably produce some to your spec for pretty cheap.

That one use some already availible clamp. (For that customer)
I have my own which i make 3D print but they are a bit on the high price.. so people don't want them.

Here is two model





And an assembly on my Spyder FPV QUad



Which material you have in mind ?
Cause i tried delrin and it's the worst material .. to slipery

I was thinking microballon filled polyurethane. Very light and definitely stronger than a 3d print. I could probably make them for around a buck a piece(?) . Ill check it out. And they'd definitely be much grippier than delrin.

My last little baby..
DiaLFonZo-Copter MiniVTail ..
Fresh from the new cnc ... !!!

Assembled quickly to confirm the fit of parts.. then packaged

Beautiful design! Ever consider incorporating small wings and pivoting props ~the V22?

Thanks..

Well, i am kind of limited to what the controller can handle.

1) What's the weight of the frame for the 500mm version?
2) What battery do you use (voltage & capacity) and how long does the copter last under average conditions?
3) Which controller? Ardupilot? (my apologies if you said what it was in a previous post).

Weight of the frame without any electronics on it (sorry for my oh-so-nice scale...)





I have not fly the frame a lot myself.. just no time.
There are many sold and they are putting info on the RCGroups thread (http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthre ... st21161449)

Battery would be around 3000mah 3S LiPo (or similar depend on which motor you put on there)
500mm is for 10" size prop and 400mm is for 8" size.

The most popular controler would be a Multiwii based controller or a KK board.
I have see both in nice flight on the thread.

One person did it with a DJI Wookong and custom setting to get the VTail setup.

Pretty cool looking. You have been busy up on the RCGroups with over 5000 posts! May have to try one some days...

Kurt

Yes i am more active on RCgroups than here.
Mostly because i am better at making Copter frames than i am at programming robots.. LOL

But throw me any design oriented project and i can do it for you..

I would stay away from a VTail quadcopter for the first copter.
This thing have a LOT of yaw authority.. And it's a bit tricky to dial the PID value to have a good flight.

But here what it look like in a PRO hands...
