Mini Arrow Speed build

@IdoAllMyOwnStunts if you ever want me to make plans for a wing you design, just send me a PM with some dimensions and I can draw something up!

I would 100% build it

Sweet! I’ll send you the dimensions when I get a chance, this new one flies very solid😎

Alrighty, awesome!

@IdoAllMyOwnStunts good looking wing! Also, you have an absolutely gorgeous place to fly.

 

[Flite Risk]

Good job.

Thanks! Nebraska does have its beautiful moments😉.

Mini Arrow V3 complete! Hanger I’m gonna send you a pic of the plan dimensions😉😎 video coming soon!

I remember hearing somewhere that the sweep of the arrow is strong enough that it will fly just fine without the winglets. I wonder if you could remove yours (or omit them on V4). It may possibly give you just a little more speed due to reduced drag.

Indeed. I’ve actually removed them before and it flies ok, not as stable as you get heavier. I’ll have to chop them smaller little by little with this heavy build I just did😎

All together😎 time to test fly on 3cell. It’s gonna be a while before I do 6 cell, I had a battery get killed in a crash🙄

Fastest rolls yet and amazing slow speed handling!

Awesome again....so I got a question. This started out as a pusher and now its a puller. Any thoughts on that?

Pullers can theoretically go faster than pushers due to the prop being in clean air.

Did your ESC play the Game of Thrones theme on startup?!

Exactly! And it’s soooo much quieter too! Only down side is the motor is not protected as much during landing. The pusher thrust angle has a lot more tolerance. One big difference I found is that the slow speed handling of a puller has improved due to air constantly going over the control surfaces😎

Yep! That’s the advantage of Blheli 32, programming in whatever song you want😎

Tested the F60 1950kv with a 5.2x6 APC prop, and the results are impressive. My 6s was made up of a crappy 3 cells that I put in series. New batteries are coming next week.
Got some 750mah 95C 3 cells I’m gonna try, then I also got another 1300 mah 3 cell to replace the one that hit the ground and turned into a pancake😎

 

[IdoAllMyOwnStunts]

Finally got my 750 mah 95c 3 cells in the mail! First flight on 6s and I hit a new record of 159 Mph! This PR was done on the V3 prototype that has no aerodynamic modifications besides packing tape covering.
Next step is building the least draggy one I can and seeing how fast that gets me😎

Just proved again today, I hit 167 mph on the mini arrow V3!
