ET-3462

Fire damage

Introduction:

Rebuilding the old Egg-3056 with a better board and canopy.

Components

  • ET-125 frame with Betafpv canopy
  • LDARC 1304 6200kv motors
  • Frsky D8 receiver
  • Eachine TX06 AIO camera
  • Skystars Kramam 15a AIO board

Conclusion

At 75g dry, it didn't save too much weight over the original. The board should be a lot better though, so we'll see how it holds up.

Update 2/18/20 - So it flies surprisingly well on 2s. Battery life was actually on par with AK-475 (2.5-3mins). It also has enough power on 2s to catch itself on dives as well even though it's a fair bit heavier. However, it really comes to life on 3s and really performs well there. These are just great motors and matches well with those props. I'll need to switch props as time permits to see if the HQ 3020s or GF 3018s perform any better. My guess is that it needs 3 blades esp. on 2s.

Update 4/8/20 - This burned up in a crash. Flew it in the playground and after a particularly had crash, the receiver shifted on impact, touched the FC and sparked a fire.
