Box Wing FPV Airplane
In this video I explain and demonstrate my latest FPV airplane. The aircraft uses a box wing configuration and is designed for long flight times, small size, and increased durability.

Driving a Homebuilt Seafox ROV Submarine
Переглядів 7 тис.4 роки тому
This video shows footage of me driving my Seafox ROV submarine that I built from PVC pipe and bilge pumps. The underwater footage was captured by filming the video monitor directly and by attaching the camera to the ROV itself. Build-video link: ua-cam.com/video/Fltz36ncIs4/v-deo.html

    Brilliant.....To build with no cnc no 3d print ,just stuff from a normal life ... that is very cool and creative ....

    Very nice. I'd encourage you to publish your plans. I know I'd build one. You are probably aware but there is a resource section on the flite test forums where you could publish. I'd probably put gear on mine though as I'm officially an old man and that is quite big for me to yeat into the air.

    Would have really liked to see the actual airplane fly. Not the landscape. Looks like a great design. Maby make another video actually showing the airplane flying and its flight characteristics.

    Can we make the ROV autonomous? if yes do you have any price approximation ?

    • @nathanbroman1601
      @nathanbroman1601 Рік тому

      I haven't looked into any autonomous underwater capabilities. There are some ROV Facebook groups that would probably have more information on that subject though.

      Those are glass rocks for ballast to make it sink. I had trouble with them sliding around in the tubes though, so I later replaced them with metal washers that I held in place with screws driven into the PVC pipe.

    Where is the CG at? Im busy with basically the same type of build.forward swepped wings 1000mm, fuselage is 600mm. Motor turnigy 2836/1000kv.

    • @nathanbroman1601
      @nathanbroman1601 2 роки тому

      I used the CG calculators at rcplanes.online/index5.htm#CG to find the CG location. For a more accurate simulation, you can find the neutral point and CG using XFLR5 software (it's free).

    Hey I'm interested in making a rov I'm just a little confuse how do you control it because i see a cable what is that cable called and how do you make a controler

    • @nathanbroman1601
      @nathanbroman1601 2 роки тому

      I use relays to control the motors. The wiring instructions can be found here: www.homebuiltrovs.com/howtorelaywiringdpdt.html. Peter Sripol used these relays in his recent ROV build: www.amazon.com/Forward-Reverse-Module-Actuator-Reversing/dp/B0879GGVPZ/ref=sr_1_3?crid=27G5NXO7Q8KKH&keywords=oono+relay&qid=1640137841&sprefix=mono%2Caps%2C151&sr=8-3. They look like they would be easier to set up. The tether has three cables. The first is an ethernet cable for turning the relays on/off, the second is thick speaker wire for powering the motors, and the third is an RCA cable for the camera.

    No 1 just flies anymore we all have to have cameras telemetry and land vertically like elon musk whatever happened to just flying?

  • @mickiesmountain5681
    @mickiesmountain5681 3 роки тому

    Thanks good information. Maybe go back to phisics class though or basic electronics. My camera and motors run off the same battery as does everyone's who does rc fpv. A capacitor on the power in will eliminate most feedback/noise from the motors. Me LEDs run off the same battery. The resistor is just generating heat and wasting power. A pdb or power distribution board is used. They're cheap

  • @mikal_1

    Very clever putting the compass in front of the camera! Also is this camera footage at 1:38 from the sparkfun camera you mentioned in your build video ?

  • @johnnyllooddte3415
    @johnnyllooddte3415 3 роки тому

    can you make a tandem box biwing plane..a reverse box wing on top of this wing..ie 2 wings in front 2 in back

    • @nathanbroman1601
      @nathanbroman1601 3 роки тому

      It might be possible. I'd recommend checking out the free XFLR5 software for aerodynamic design.

    • @pisoiorfan

    Does your design only have elevons then? No elevator on the front or anything?

    • @nathanbroman1601
      @nathanbroman1601 3 роки тому

      Yes, it has elevons. The canard in the front doesn't move. No rudder or thrust vectoring either.

    Very nice! A box wing aircraft is however scientifically labeled or called a "Mono-Plane" because it's considered to have "one continual inter-looping airfoil" or wing. Monoplane! Very nice though, I love to see people experimenting to gain an "in-hand" or "on-the-sticks" understanding of aerodynamics. Way Cool! Robert
