[quote][i]Originally posted by Steve[/i] Finally got round to doing some more work on the Quad First up I made up my custom GPS mast, that lowers it a tad and makes is sit central on the Quad, apparently it works best when in a central position, who knows but the mast looks a funky colour anyway. To do this I ordered some 4mm OD, acrylic rod, then I cut a bit off to practice bending it, I used a heat gun to heat it up then it became easily bendable. Heres the original piece next to a piece id practiced bending on [img]https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/905606_172984969523460_1679218206_o.jpg[/img] Then fitted on the GPS unit and the new mast [img]https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/905632_172987266189897_951207416_o.jpg[/img] Nice and central [img]https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/903065_172987226189901_1445524822_o.jpg[/img] Then altered all the values in the Naza assistant for the new location. Once I had that made up I set about sorting the new motors out, firstly I had to chop the looms right down as they were very long, then soldered new bullet connectors on the ends, heres one next to an unmodified one [img]https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/906910_172985082856782_1366941528_o.jpg[/img] And next to the stock DJI motor [img]https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/902265_172984889523468_717937260_o.jpg[/img] Then fitted the motors up to the Quad, and tested, some images showing the new motors on the Quad and the new gps mast in flight [img]https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/903296_172986349523322_1546744037_o.jpg[/img] [img]https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/902060_172987182856572_1047416848_o.jpg[/img] These new motors already feel far smoother than the DJI ones in flight, I have not yet had chance to test properly as its raining outside.
