How I Converted My Nanohawk into Something AMAZING! (with 40mm PROPS)

  • I converted my EMAX Nanohawk to a toothpick-style drone and increased the prop size to 40mm. It’s super fun! I call it my "NanoBug"! Parts list and links below.

    If you convert a Nanohawk just like I show in this video, and you mount your props in the reverse direction (sometimes called "props out"), and you flash Emuflight 0.3.3, then you can use my full CLI dump: bit.ly/3ARdHHO
    Here are the CLI to rotate board and remap motor (may require fixing the motor direction in ESC firmware). Works with any FC running Emuflight or Betaflight:
    resource MOTOR 1 B07
    resource MOTOR 2 B08
    resource MOTOR 3 B10
    resource MOTOR 4 B06
    set align_board_yaw = 90
    set yaw_motors_reversed = ON

With a 550mAh (betafpv lava, stop at 3.5V) I get a little over 4min of fun ripping 😊 it flys fantastic with no additional changes (except rates).

I like the way it flies and the long flight time. The only problem I have had with the MobLite7 is the V2 frame breaks easy. I have used the extra V2 frame and ordered some V3 frames that weigh an extra gram to upgrade.

    @tripleheart2970 3 роки тому +4

    About a year ago on one of my early attempts to make a "long range" 75mm whoop, I cut off 2 of the blades on the HQ props and, like you, I was amazed by how well they performed. HQ now makes a 40mm 2 blade prop which is even better than the homemade ones and I now have them on my current build. You definitely should give the Hubsan props a try, those things are simply magical...I currently have them on a 100mm X-frame which is very fast and very efficient. I've also cut them down to 48mm for use in an 85mm ducted frame, and they worked extremely well. I'm also a big fan of the Azi 40mm 3 blade props. Don't bother with the Gemfan props, they are horrible when cut down to 2 blades. BTW, if you rotate the FC, it is simpler to swap roll and pitch in the transmitter and invert one of the channels. That way you don't have to mess with all that BF stuff and you are not unpleasantly surprised on your first flight when you use that FC in another build. I am very impressed with your builds and your flying skills. I have learned many things from you and your work inspires me. Thank you.

    • @MrShutterBug
      @MrShutterBug  3 роки тому +1

      Great info on the props! I ordered some of the HQ 2-blades, but still waiting on China shipping. Remapping inputs on the transmitter is an interesting idea, but I have a lot of drones and I fly them on a small number of models on my transmitter, so I still prefer to make the corrections on the drone. Plus, I still wanted it to be "props out" so I had to go in and adjust the motor directions anyway (rotating the FC also moves the motors around, relative to "forward"). Glad you enjoyed the video! Cheers!

    what i did with all my carbon rc parts was coat the edges in thin CA glue until it makes a glossy finish. makes the carbon warp on crashes instead of fraying/cracking. just add more CA glueeach time you manage to damage it. the glue wicks to the cracked resin around the carbon fibers at a molecular lever so you can sand/cut it as if its one material once it cures.

    Back in the Nano QX days, we got away from the plastic and CF frames and went to poly frames made by picnicquads or micro motor warehouse. Those frames were virtually indestructible. If the prop guards come off, it becomes too vulnerable. Try making a poly frame and see what it does.
