Purely out of interest is the gimbal-mount nose cone of the Hero designed such that it could be fitted the other way up - so the gimbal is on top of the nose, so you wouldn't need any landing gear ?? And yes, if it is possible, I realise you would have to swop from side-to-side the wiring connectors.
@ArxangelRCКүн бұрын
Nope, it is not possible to install it that way unless you rotate the foam in the plastics before you glue them on... and even then you will need to modify the foam a little bit to make it fit, if at all possible. Also there would be the tail fin that would have to go for you to be able to remove the landing gear, and I have a feeling it is there for a reason. The plane might become more unstable with the vertical tail fin gone.

do you have means to disasemble the system and identify exact radio chips in ground/air units? Especially interresting would be radio link durability test with deauthication type attack. Question 3 would be what kind of encryption or other means of link security does it have? does the user has possibility to input encryption keys for com-sec? Interrnet has not much detailed info about the system specifically... just few points from my end to add next video when possibe! cheers.
@ArxangelRCКүн бұрын
Yes... I do have a screw driver, though doing that usually renders the warranty void. I don't know even where to begin with these attacks... I am not versed into that at all! Since it is a digital transmission there is always some form of encryption, how strong it is I do not know. I have talked about this with SIYI before, and they said that they can implement additional encryption, but it will cost more and is more of a custom service! This is a new system, so I am not surprised there is not much information on it yet.

@typxxilps5 күн бұрын
lot of really good improvements and I bet you might 3d print a cone for the forward compartment to house your camera system which did not fit. I wonder if there is possibility to make this place better prepared for a belly landing solution. I doubt that wheels would improve that really much . A second underbelly or a kind of longer sled under the belly might work to protect the camera and the finn at the end but the height of the finn determins the size or height of the sled. Great review and eplanations with a lot of powerfull ideas like the considerations about the prop and the box as the carrier. I have bought a big bag from IKEA, these blue ones for groveries and so on. You can then connect that bag after a few cuts with the bag - in my case a strong tape to get a kind of nice grip in your hands. This way you get the other hand free while carrying the table and stool for example. And you always have a safe grip cause nothing can fall out of your hands when you carry such a box which usually can not be carried under an arm and requires both hands to be carried safely . The ikea bag was cheap and makes it easier to provide a strong and reliable grip which you can move around till you have found the sweet spot of balance (and remind also where you have put everything and in what direction cause that save a lot of time). I had crashed once a plane and damage it when it had been in the box and I fell over a root from a tree , the boxes crashed out of my hands and the plane fell out of the box to be damaged when I fell onto that plane . Since then I try to reuse the boxes more carefully cause that was the biggest crash landing i had when my weight and bones had destroyed close to every part, wings, ailerrons, fuselage nose. Every piecs of foam and plastic bend or broken . It became a puzlle bomber and never flew again properly till I slaughtered it and transplanted everything into a new model with an abs molded fuselage.
@ArxangelRC4 күн бұрын
Yes, for a while there I was thinking to print something for the nose to hold the mapping camera... but I never got around to doing that, plus it would have looked so huge compared to the rest of the plane. As for belly landing... I really hope it doesn't come to that. The way the landing gear mounts to the fuselage would make it risky and would possibly suffer damage even with something attached there to slide on. Ideally you can print a whole new nose piece to bring the gimbal up, above the lowest part of the belly... and as for the rear fin... it could be sacrificial... but that is way too much modding! Just fingers crossed it wouldn't come to belly landing! If it does... I might try to catch it... would be cheaper to replace some wings than the camera, fuselage, etc. :) Hmmmm... about that bag... this is giving me an idea... I could have a tailor just sew up a bag to fit around the box... will be relatively cheap, will support a local business and should get the job done pretty nicely! Yes, I will look into that! As for your plane... that really sucks... hasn't happened to me yet... hoping it won't!
@typxxilps5 күн бұрын
excellent overview - even though I prefer a proper plane or a drone and not these hybrids which come with a lot of compromises and drawbacks like the efficiency lost from the drone configuration in flying mode. Of cause it protects the camera gear a lot better.
@ArxangelRC4 күн бұрын
Well... for a long time I had the same mindset, however, recently I have seen the value in VTOLs because no matter what you do, you can't always find a good landing strip, and if you want to have a gimbal on the plane, that makes the job of safely landing it even harder! Yes, you do make compromises with VTOLs in certain aspects, but the convenience of the vertical take offs and landings is something I have come to appreciate a lot in the past two years. Getting a VTOL for mapping has made that work so much easier!
