testing the simple tri with a sunnysky X2208 1260kv motor.

these weigh 1/2 oz less each than the 2212 1400kv motors i use. also i used a 1300mah 3 cell pack saving another 4 oz. this setup will carry a gopro but not much else. you could get away with these motors on a simple T copter and a gopro 3 (lighter camera than the gopro1-2) i would go with this setup on more of a funfly tri. somthing to toss around or to learn on. - Розваги
Good for you! j johns :) I had dreamed of flying R/C airplanes since I was a little boy but could never afford it and neither could my parents. I finally started flying R/C planes when I was about 35 and now at 43 I am trying to learn to fly multi-rotors and FPV! Its a great hobby and I have never been more excited about a hobby in my life than I am RC flying. I am also very enterested in RC boats. No matter how old we get, that little adventurous boy inside of us never goes away!
1:35 "I'll probably be dead", lol.
I like tricopters more than my teenage kids.....and quads. i like knowing where the front is. makes flying more enjoyable.
My vote is for quiet. Nice video and good control. The noise is created by the props. If you flew the same bird on 5x3 or 6x3 you would have to have a much higher rpm and to do that you would have to have a higher voltage. There's a lot to this and I've just brushed the surface.
Suppo outrunners are nice and affordable. Ive been flying them for the past couple months since i started building flying tricopters. Im running the suppo 2208 1450kv on my smaller tri on 3s 1300 packs and the auw is 24oz rtf. I like the lighter power set up for flying in the yard but the 2212 1400kv have a bit more weight and power to cope with really windy days. Currently designing a quad but have some of the hk 1200 ntm's to try in my green machine tricopter.
He all. Just a quick note about the Tricopter I built as per Matts information. Purchased the frame from him (no brainer) and in a short time I was doing loops and rolls and lots of other high speed stuff. Until ..Yep, you guessed it. I took it up high to get some great videos of my surrounding area and lost orientation. ( I am an idiot for not paint it bright colors). The result was an inverted, ass first dive into the neighbors drive way. GoPro 3 Black and all. Less than $50 damage. :)
Nice flying!
Looking forward to hearing more about how these motors work out for you. They sure look interesting to me.
I love the quite drone like feel.
I love to see you with Collective Pitch props so you can hover upside down!
Keep the videos of the tricopter videos coming. I'm about make my 1st one.
Great model...well flown
Im sold awsome motors and your flying is awesome.
Man you can fly !
Matt - you need to try and do a video showing your thumbs while you fly this thing. I reckon a lot of people will get more kits from you as an after effect if they know how to fly theirs like you do
Like the load!
Ok, that's sick. I built a tri using the RCtimer 1300kv motors you suggested. Durable little bastards. Replacement shafts only cost me 99c too. :). Thanks for the inspiration. Could you post a quick tutorial on configuring and performing a flip and a roll. I learned the hard way that objects held aloft soley by thrust accelerate SHOCKINGLY fast when powered upside down. I needed a dust broom to pick up all the pieces.
I like em noisy too.. nothing like the sound if coming to a stop or flipping and stabilizing.
Very Cool!
Awesome comment!
i will check them out.
thats cool i want to make one. i am new to this. im gonna try to make tricopter 2.5.
Cool mate
11:55 nice launch
Great work, I enjoy your videos. I'm starting to get tighter flips like yours. I'm running stick scale at 90 and stick throw at 120 with expo at 40. I'm curious, do you have a custom throttle curve,or is it linear (default)?
HobbyKing kk2 boardw/lcd is already loaded self level. I am flying with it now and it does great. fyi
another great video! Is this a smaller frame too?
Quiet is nicer.
Dont power it when it is upside down then?
Full throttle it then as you start to hit and hold hard left or right or forwards or backwards let off the throttle, then reapply the throtle as it comes round to level out and at the same time bring the directional stick back to centre, ready to make any adjustments.
If you want to fly (FP) Fixed-Pitch or (CP)Collective Pitch helis then sure you can go Nitro=gas but if you want to fly multi-rotors, Tri-copters, Quads etc there really is no other way than electric! Everything is going electric now, even R/C planes. I have a basement full of nitro-crap lol that I will box-up and sell to you but I wouldnt advise you to do it if you want to do stuff like in hallstudios vid! E-Brushless motors are unbelievably strong!
awesome videos! I just finished my tricopter. Any chance you can tell me how you setup the transmitter. I have a futaba 9c super with frsky module. I have it flying on a basic airplane model...no mixes or anything. It seems to fly well. Should I be doing deeper setup in the transmitter?
Amazing are you able to post the kid settings
Hal, love the videos! Please keep up the good work!
Is that a Turnigy MG90S Metal Gear Servo 1.8kg / 13.4g / 0.10sec #23594? It's $5.09 and its the only thing I could find in the USA warehouse that matched the image/price/description you gave.
Fly safe!
I would be very interested in being able to get hold of the 1.5 version of the KK 22
Happy Landings
Hey Matt, I noticed you have a rubber band on the other side of your servo connected to the tail mount, is that to reduce slop? I have a problem with slop on the tail mount for my trip and cannot find a solution
Great review on the motors. But just where can we get them? Cant google them. haha!
I'm looking to do a build that will do fpv, no acrobatics, mostly flying a perimeter, any suggestions on what motors and props would get the best endurance. Don't need hi performance, just efficient.
are you flying in manual mode and if so what are your settings etc? you appear super stable
With the HP2812-1300kv motors from rctimer and 25 amp plush escs and a 2200 3s should i use tye 8X4 gws style props like you have on your website or something else. Also can i use a 1300 with that same setup that i just mentioned? Thanks and sorry im a noob
Hallstudio....how bout a spider quad set up...for fpv. Give your expertise on a cheap build. Thanks
Were you successful with your 20+ min flying time? I haven't see any videos from you on this. I'm anxious to see what you've done!
Thank you! Sorry about that! :P
What are the length of the arms and what size props are flying? Looks like the RcExplorer.se tricopter but with higher kv engines and shorter arms.
just ordered some SunnySky V3508-20 KV580 at $35 a pop. looking for a long duration H copter that i can run with 12x4.5 props on 4 cell battery. we are going for a flying platform with a 20+ min flying time and 3 pounds of cargo lift. will let you know how that goes.
is there any way you can do a video of flashing a speed controller cause I'm confused at what it is.
I'm just getting started in it all. Does adding an additional battery pack by you anything of significance, I wonder if adding the additional battery pack and incurring the weight cost is worth it. Is anyone doing a gas config with longer flight times.
Servo - Turnigy MG90S Metal Gear Servo 1.8kg / 13.4g / 0.10sec
$4.99
I'm a newbie can you reply with setups for basic startup for transmitter. Looks like you got a dx8 I have a dx7s . I hope I can fly someday as good as you. None of the youtubers put anything on transmitter setup.Spectrum doesn't say much about it either that I can find.
Thanks Toney
lol.....so true......um new in multirotors I just think that server for the yaw was just to much.
Nice! Do you flip in Acro or Auto-level mode?
Why is this one so quiet? is it down to the motors or the props? or what is it?
how would I connect a pvs14 night vision device to one of these and be able to view the image through fpv?

Hi Hall,
I am looking forward on building my first tricopter, I have ordered 3 motor "SunnySky X2208 KV1260 II" but received instead (2) SunnySky X2208 KV1260 II and (1) SunnySky X2208 KV1500 II, do you think it will be a problem if I mix the the motors or should I insist on having them ship the correct one?
HP2812-1300kv
PLEASE HELP
is there a way to disable arming on a KK 5.5 blackboard?
Is this the correct servo? Turnigy TGY-S902 Metal Gear Digital Robot Servo 13kg / 0.14sec / 58g
A week ago I ordered 3 of NTM Prop Drive 28-26 1350KV / 310W.
Now i see that you are using other motors.
Do you think the motors I bought are good enough or should i order other motors?
are the props plastic or Carbon/ABS Mix Props
Can you please share the dx9 settings for tricopter...thanks
que valores pones en kk 2 para hacer flips
For a beginner how hard would this be for someone to fly
Do you run ur radio rate at 100%
I want to build one of these using your frame. do you think these will give me the same results. 4x N2830/2212 1000KV 270W 2-4S Brushless Motor Quad-Hexa copter $50 one-bay I want mine to fly like yours. looks great. Please let me know. They come from china so you know they'll take a while to get here.
Hobbyking wont sell em with the 1.5 Firmware cos then they wont sell so many usb asp adapters and they love selling stuff...its there hobby....anyways nice thumbs and a great vid.....fly safe
how much does this tricopter cost?, with everything and the remote? :P
had to cut the shaft
I keep seing these tricopters and can't find a list of your parts for the life of me........
I cannot find sunnysky 1208. Is it 2208?
Sunnysky 2208 motors. Not 1208
Is there a web-site to order quad parts inside the USA that you can actually expect to receive them in a reasonable time? I am freakin sick of waiting for months ordering from HobbyKing, HobbyCity, AliExpress etc? Hell they are all the same company anyway I think! Ive been waiting on my prop replacements for 5 weeks and my Turnigy 9XR radio for 8 weeks and its still not here! I am beginning to wonder if I have been totally SCREWED & if it will ever come! Is there a better way for us Americans??
u must like tricopters more than quads....
47 and discovered remote controlled "toys"
