3D printed radio-controlled HD FPV plane!
zhlédnutí 3,9KPřed měsícem
In this video, I show how I designed, built, and flew a 3D-printed radio controlled plane with a high definition FPV (first-person view) system. I was shooting for 250g but came out a little over that at 270g. It uses the Walksnail Avatar Nano FPV system. The design was done mostly in FreeCAD with a little bit of help from Moment of Inspiration for some of the complex curved parts. I use a grou...

I took some aerial photos of a row of posts in the Chesapeake Bay with my kite with the KAP rig in vertical orientation. In the end, I couldn't get quite as close to them as I wanted (and I had to crop quite a bit), but the pictures still turned out nicely.

FXT FX508 FPV Monitor First Test - Uncut
Question for you: Why have you kept the tail surfaces out of the line of the prop wash? I feel like you'd have improved tail authority if the control surfaces were directly behind the prop.
The inverted V is simpler (just two pieces and two control surfaces) and has more than enough control authority.
A bit more retraction might help with those strings. Otherwise really cool design. I happen to also use an AnyCubic printer and Polymaker Lightweight PLA. Looking forward to building this after I catch up on all my other projects. So ... 10 years or so lol.
Beautiful design and awesome maiden flight! Great job!!
How hard was it to cover? I tried covering a 3D printed horizontal stabilizer I made and it was a disaster. I used conventional covering for balsa and couldn't get it to stick well enough to the plastic parts. Then I ended up melting/warping the plastic. I tried vinyl for cars but it is too thick. I ended up covering it with tuck tape (like packing tape) and it looks awful.
@@billjonesnation definitely trickier than wood. I also found that it doesn't stick well to the PLA, so I made sure the covering was always wrapping around and sticking to other covering prior to shrinking. I also had to be very gentle with the iron to not soften the plastic. I had a couple small areas that ended up slightly warped, but nothing too bad. Also, using extremely light covering is important. This is Aerolite from StevensAero, which I think is about as light as it gets.
If any other material you'd like to try for the fpv frame? Such as Nylon? Would love to sponsor if needed! (PCBWay zoey)
Light weight is the name of the game with these. If I were to make another one I'd probably try the foaming LW-PLA. I appreciate the offer though!
@@montagdp Sounds a good point! Do you think is there any chance we can have a further talk about potential collab? We're open to supplying free services including custom PCBs, 3DP/CNC with different material options, for more your project possibilities!
@@zoeyzhang9866 maybe at some point in the future. I have done custom PCBs before, but honestly I don't have a lot of time for projects these days. I'll keep it in mind though in case the opportunity arises.
please share the LW-PLA profile
There are print settings in the thingiverse link in the description. Let me know if there's anything missing that you need.
Did it survive the landing? How important do you think the weight savings of the LW-PLA were versus using something like Nylon that'd be more durable?
@@theroburrito it did survive the landing, but I've decided to catch it from now on because the prop (attached with a prop saver) tends to strike the fuselage and cut the covering on belly landings. Regarding the material, I prefer making it as light as possible.
Nice Job!
That’s awsome, I’m also trying to build a twin boom v tail rc plain
Hey, that was nice plane. can you share the STL?
Glad you liked it. I put a link to the design on thingiverse in the video description.
Hello! Would you be able to upload just the piano recording that we can use for Sunday school kids sing along? It will be a great blessing. Thank you so much!
How do you know the right direction to follow? Are you using autopilot?
Great work! Superb aerial images. Very nice detail. This definitely deserves a lot more views.
Thanks!
Awesome. Well done good sir!:)
Very good project and demonstration ,I am making one nowadays, with a different design ,what you can do which I am doing with my robot is adding Hc05 Bluetooth module to the arduino so you control the robot via app using your smartphone, take care
what software you using pleae
Hello. I just saw your work on low reynolds airfoils using transition model and i could really use your help on my research. How can i contact you?
what is this an isosurface of?
Really neat. How does it compare with Xfoil? In terms of CL CD?
Fantastic. Now it would be interesting to compute a mean CL and a mean CD and compare them with other CFD models or with real data.
Hello, I am very interested in this kind of simulation. I would be very grateful if you could give me some tips so that I can acquire how the basic functioning is.
What is your background and what in particular are you trying to simulate? Do you need unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) CFD or will a simpler aerodynamic model do? The kite itself is modeled as rigid here. The aerodynamics of the kite is simulated using unsteady RANS. The kite string and tail are modeled with a catenary simulation - each cable is divided uniformly into 30-100 segments, and Newton's 2nd law is solved simultaneously for all segments, with gravity, tension, and aerodynamics being the applied forces. The motion of the kite applies the boundary conditions at the ends of the cables connected to it, and the cables apply forces to the kite to affect how it moves. The kite's motion is simulated using a 6-degree-of-freedom rigid body motion solver.
@@montagdp Hello, thank you very much for your quick reply! I study mechanical engineering and try to simulate the following problem: To tow a lure sideways on a boat, a otter board is to be used. This otter board represents the lateral distance from the boat, which should be variable at the end. Now it is so that I have already carried out steady state simulations of the bait. This means that I know all the forces acting on the shear board in the direction of flow. Now I have to ask myself how I have to dimension the area of the otter board in order to be able to guarantee the lateral distance at all and which angles are realistic in the end (otter board in relation to the ship). I would like to clarify these questions by a simulation and this problem seems to me very similar to a single line kite simulation. Since the shear board floats exclusively on the surface, it is ( a bit simplified) a 2D problem. There are already solutions from the fishing industry. I would like to list one here to better understand the problem. For example there is the "Ghost Sideplaner" from "ghost - products de".
Kinda yes but no
Hmmm, no
thats cavitation? a destructive vacuum bubble eroding way your propeller
Nice project. I am rigth now developing my TTR controlled by an APP. Thanks for share. Innovative implementation.
Ho could you explain, what is the significance of this ??
@@montagdp thanks buddy...keep up the good work....you do amazing CFD work 👍👍
Where can these types of kites be purchased?
@@montagdp thank you.
Dear, I noticed this video is quite old. but I am wondering if you still have the interest and if you know how to do such a study on ansys, How can I make a plunging and pitching motion? Thanks in advance!
Sorry, but I haven't done anything with ANSYS or Fluent in over a decade, so my knowledge is probably completely out of date. What I do remember is that at the time I needed to make a User-Defined function to prescribe the motion and then compile it within Fluent. I think there was a dialog for that. I used mesh deformation to handle the motion in the model. Hope that helps somewhat!
@@montagdp already helped, appreciated !
this cannot be..
What is this
how interesting
Awesome video! Thank you!
Hello, what does such seperation mean? How does it form? I know stall occurs when the airflow over the top of the wing seperates, but this is interesting. Does it occur in everyday flight?
looks good! what is this software ?
It's one that requires you to work for the US DoD or a DoD contractor, unfortunately.
I want to know what the fuck the algorithm is smoking.
age of attraction=0? you sure that this is ok?
Awesome project!
great device
bro if u are from europe or america can u make and give me a gmail account, it will really help me soo much
I already have an idea to do a 3D printed one. If I do, maybe I'll make the design available. But it will be a while, because I don't even have a 3D printer yet.
FWIW: That feature of having the camera frame be repositionable to go from portrait to landscape format is a good idea.
So what's this used for? Like rockets and craft?
Rockets, airplanes, UAVs, cars, anything where aerodynamics matters.
yoler
as they say in Dune, the air must flow 🤣
Congrats for another video with pretty water, thanks for sharing, hopefully u enjoy my video too, have a good day my friend :)
