Hello all.
I've been toying with an idea of taking the DC motors from broken servos that I have and splicing them into the motor wires on the control board from the Champ (UMX board). Then, I would let the "elevator" servo rotate the front boom that the 2 front motors are attached to and somehow use the other linear servo to rotate the tail motor. In theory, this would allow the tricopter to go up and down using the throttle, rotate with the rear tail motor like a normal tricopter, and then go forward and back by rotating the front boom. It SHOULD work..... I'll make a brief schematic of it to explain this pretty wacky idea, but in the meantime let me know your guys thoughts!
