Official Skynetic 1000mm Havok Racer Thread

I found better prop then stock.

Well had a no fly weekend again AAARRRGGHHH !!! So did a little more playing on TinkerCad.
I have been bothered by all the dead grass my Havok scoops up with the Lower Air Duct on ever landing. Darn thing acts like a shovel where I fly.
Always having to shake or rake it back out.
I designed a Duct Shield/Screen. It should still let plenty of air through, but not the grass.
Still need to clean up the holes a little more... The design will use one spot off CA to hold in place on the center bottom of the duct.
Have not got a chance to fly with it yet, but looks promising...

I have registered to be notified when the new Havoks arrive. I wondered if there was an estimated time of arrival.
Thanks

micronracer Thanks for posting! The Skynetic Havok sold out much faster than we had anticipated, which I suppose is a good problem to have! More Havoks are on the way; the best way to be notified as soon as they are in stock and ready to ship is to enter your email address in the "Notify Me" field:

I would like to order a Havoc. When are they expected to be back in stock.

James if you are coming to the Frosty Dog, how about printing these for me before you come?? :pray: (I'll paypal you whatever I owe for them!)

[Alpha]

TaSaJaRa Thanks for sharing your design! I'm going to print out a pair of these today for my Havok. Luckily I just received more white PLA.

[TaSaJaRa]

Well got them printed, turned out pretty good. I will put them on Thingiverse if anyone would like to try them out.
I think I will use this Scotch Double Sided tape, it seems strong enough and it is very thin.(PIC Below)
You cave get the covers HERE: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4084704

They look awesome TaSaJaRa! Can you extend the sides so they fully cover the black on the servo?

Thanks....
Sure I can adjust it a bit...Printing the 3rd design now. Made the crown slightly thicker and added 11mm to width...With a thicker center you will need a support
Will see how it turns out this time.

Weather wasn't good for flying today , So I designed some servo control arm covers. Turned out pretty good... I will have to check all the clearances Monday to see if they really came out with enough room.
Printed in Esun PLA+, 100% infill, .2 layer height.

All stock with an APC 7x7E prop. I don’t think it’s the prop causing the left roll. It’s the speed. I was able to get the left roll in a power dive on 4s. I’m going stiffen the fuse laterally and square up the wing saddle. May do gap seals on the ailerons, one of my aileron servos has some play in the gears so that might be causing the roll.
Anyway my roll isn’t so bad that it can’t be controlled and might help in a pylon race. Like a NASCAR racer always wants to turn left on the straights. Moving a foamy through the air above 140, bad things could happen...

[Giddyuperic66]

Good morning people. Can you tell me where you are getting these props please ? I got a 8x8 em apc from them. And to run the six cell setup what. ESC are you running ? Please let me know thanks giddyuperic@gmail.com

[Alpha]

I'd also like to know which prop was used. I don't think EMP makes one, and APC's 7x7 is what was torquing your bird.

[JamesonC]

Time for a repaint and decals from Callie. Need to massage the wing saddle to square up the airframe.. 144 mph on a level radar pass. 7x7 on 6s.

Which 7x7 did you use? I have not found a prop yet for 6s that has the speed I'm looking for but that doesn't cause a pretty harsh left roll at WOT.

[Alpha]

Merlinfan Thanks for finally posting, 7x7 on 6s for 144mph level is a nice result! I've never reached those speeds in this bird... yet.

I'm eager to see your finished rework with those graphics!
