Building Log: Tucan Solution

UPDATE: 2/2019 - Baubericht bei der Tucan ausführlicher beschrieben!

Bei meiner Suche nach einer gscheiten FPV Plattform kam ich zu Mike Evans tollen Fliegern.
Er hat brav seine Pläne und viele Details zum Bau in die RCGroups-Foren gestellt. Für die Faulen gibts die Bauteile auch teilweise vorgefertigt.

Ich hab dem Flieger den Beinamen "Tucan" gegeben - warum wohl?

REGLER: MULTICONT BL-40 S-BEC MULTIPLEX
SERVOS: 2x Hitec HS55
Prop: APC 11X10 (first I used 11x4.7 but that was to slow)

Gesamtgewicht: 2200g (mit 3200er 3zeller und 150g Ballast)
Schwerpunkt: 13,2cm von der Vorderkante des Flügels
Stallspeed ist ca 24-28km/h!!! - und man kann dieses Ding wirklich sehr langsam landen!




After my search for the best FPV platform I came to Mike Evans great designed Beasts, Crawlers and the "Solution".
He is so kind to put up full plans of his planes and there is a great forum where many builders discuss the plane (I got nearly all my info there)

My setup/used components:
MOTOR: AXI 2820/14
ESC: MULTICONT BL-40 S-BEC MULTIPLEX
SERVOS: 2x Hitec HS55
Prop: APC 11X10 (first I used 11x4.7 but that was to slow)
RX: ACT DSL8
TX: Graupner MX16s
All up weight: 2088g (with 3200mah battery and 150g dead ballast to obtain CG)
my CG (should be): 13,2cm from leading edge of the wing
my stall speed should be at 24km/h!!!


See this picasa album for detailed pics of the building process - it was great fun to build this plane - and I'm not so fond of building planes (or things in general :-)

The plane is called the "Solution" - I added "Tucan" to it - see if you can guess why :-)
