Thanks, The 680 is a great frame. ESC 30A Simonk rcmanchild.com/rcmc-simonk-30a-escs.html Motors Tiger Motor MT4006-13 - KV 740, 44.3mm x 23mm, 92g swinging 12x6 carbon fiber props. Lipos 2x 5000mah 4 cell 14.8v 30-40c discharge (running in parallel). Gives me 10 minutes flight time with plenty in reserve.
I currently have a DJI f550 running on all stock parts from DJI. For my fpv I use a Tarot Gimbal , gopro 3. The batery I currently use is a 3s 8400mah. My fly time is 15 mins. Now here is what I want to do. I want to purchase a Tarot hexacopter frame. I had in mind the 680 pro. I plan on using a sony nex 5. What motors would I need to use to maintain my 3s battery. Or do I simply forget about the 3s and move to a 4s to use a better more efficient motor. Thank you hope I can find some guidance.
Hi, I think they are after market I can't remember sorry, they are about 40cm. I have 100cm ones on the way so I can put a much heaver gimbal out front and counter balance with the lipos out the back.(It's all about CG.) I've been using 2x 5000mah 4s lipos in parallel which gives me ten minutes flight time with lots in reserve. Cheers sttottos
Nice video mate! Can I ask you how to do that over lapping in the video? what kind of connector I need to have on board camera and go pro in same time. Cheers,
Hi, I have two cameras on board one GoPro and one FPV camera. I record the FPV video to DVR on my ground station and then in post-production I just overlaid the FPV image over GoPro image and used the GoPro audio very easy to do. I use Adobe Premiere Pro to edit my movies.
Ringo Long Hey here, It can do 70kmh ground speed comfortably, if your flying into the wind - the wind speed off that. I've had it up to 90kmh with a 20-30kmh tail wind.
good flight!
Flying under Bridge was very cool
very nice
great place,incredible flight,can you share your motor--esc setup,recently bought a 680 and would like to know your motor--esc-lipo combination

Great set up! Are the gimball/battery booms stock and pushed out all the way or extended and purchased after? Also, flight times on this beauty? Thnx.

Nice video! I seen 44 km/h, but wondering if it flys quicker than that?
