Please keep your gimbals in your pants!

[xviper]

Are those gimbals in your pants or are you just happy to see me?

[desertdrifter7]

Well, it's D-Day. And I am wondering if the delivery is going to be on time or late. Personally, I am hoping the plane will arrive early. I am looking forward t flying it on our grass field.

[Rcfiddy1]

Me waiting for shipping notice.

[boomer108]

Is the ship any closer to the coast?

[Alpha]

Certainly closer today than it was yesterday, my friends

So far, so good!

[MikeT]

LOL

[Gilatrout]

You're making my gimbals itch again

I'm worried. Maybe "boat sink"? Sure hope not!

sinister! 😀

Got a question for you. Since you said you run the batteries in parallel to where both motors are drawing from them, did you pull the red wire to one of the BECs?

[Evan D]

No need, separate BEC.

[OV10]

Cobra1365 As Evan D has correctly stated. The ESC's are opto's and the starboard motor is already prewired with the 5A UBEC.

[Evan D]

Any idea of the specs of the ESCs or BEC? 6S capable (for another project)

Evan D Specs are clearly listed on the product page...………… 30A ESC on 4S.
The UBEC (not a BEC) is not stated but is what I stated in prior post.
6S capable
Seriously Evan, have you ever seen a 6S system on 30A

[Evan D]

Sorry if I amuse you. I am trying to decide what to do with my Bronc when I get it. It will get bigger motors and trying to decide if I’m staying 4S with appropriate kV and bigger props (something similar to the P-38’s system) or go lower kV, 6S and probably about the same size props. Either way the power system will change. The question was really to ask if the BEC could be used if I went 6S.

[Guinness0424]

Would have been great if they had also offered a primer only version. So many great schemes. Also, hopefully one of you 3d jocks can design a long nose version for the nose.

[Guinness0424]

Something like the one I have?

[Gilatrout]

So who is going to be first with a parajumper exiting from the utility bay?
