w30462

Introduction:

I reused the parts from w475 and rebuilt it with a 1302 6200kv motor.

Components:

  • Dollar tree foam board

  • Turnigy Plush 2-4s 10a esc with 5v2a BEC

  • DSM receiver

  • 2x 5g servos powered by a separate 2a bec

  • LDARC 1304 6200kv

  • Eachine tx02 200mw aio camera

Conclusion:

83g dry with FPV gear. This was built to be lightweight and not so strong since it uses smaller motors. The original 1104 7500kv was too high in kv even for the 3016 props. The last 3rd of the throttle was useless. I decided to go with the 1304s instead. The last time I used it, I had 4" props on it which proved too much for 3s. I decided to go with the 3016 props instead this time.

Update 6/26/20 - So the motor is too much for the 3016 props. I will be putting hq 3020 props on it instead. Otherwise, it flew pretty well. The extra wing width got rid of the stalls. It flies well on both 2s and 3s. I still need to find the proper props for it though.

Update 6/27/20 - It seems the HQ3020 props had the same issue as the 3016s. I'll need to keep testing more props.

Update 7/6/20 - I added a AIO camera to it and settled with the HQ 3x3x2 props. The fpv maiden went well and it flies even better than I expected with fpv.
