i want to get a new controller board for my quad copter. one that does more of the thinking for me. Not sure which one yet. I'm looking for one that doesnt require me to know which way is front. Any recommendations?

i am also interested. is the class focused on planning a pcb, or creating it, and if creating it, by milling or chemical? interested all the same, just curious

desiccant is usually silica gel crystals if im not mistaken, i would expect crystal kitty litter to work for this purpose. further research is encouraged however.

here are the motors: 2200kV PM19M-2400: http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p259/svaroh/motor1.jpg 2800kV PM19S-2800: http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p259/svaroh/motor2.jpg and the motor from my 550mm kit: http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p259/svaroh/mymotor.jpg looks to me like i need a 2200kV ...

i dont know if the 400mm frame motors are the same as the 550mm frame motors, but it's the 550mm frame i have and require a new motor for

these are the parts i need to cut, modeled in Sketchup. they fit within a 20"x40" envelope with about an inch margin.

thoughts?

like this, still building the tops

Thanks Icars,
I stopped by the space today and Saxmachine dug a couple out of the box for me. im all set that way now.

Query,
the 2 pin header on the PDU board, is that power for the receiver? does it need to be regulated down to 5v for the HK 6a v2 receiver I have?

Thanks

Where are you guys getting the 3 pin female to female cables for connecting the receiver to the control board? I had a look at Hobbyworld, all they had were extensions.

sweet!

so excited

thanks for putting this together
