Hi!
I'm new to this hobby and i have just finished my tricopter. the tricopter is made of aluminium booms and plywood frame plates, i'ts equipped with apm 2.6 with gps, ntm propdrive 26-28 1000kv with 1045 props, afro slim 20A esc's, 3s 2200 lipo and a tower pro MG90 servo for the tail.
I'm not happy with the way it flies. The flight time is only about six minutes, it oscillates in the yaw axis and lowering the p-gain dont seem to work.
I'm planning on rebuilding it in carbon fiber and do the wiring smarter to make it as light as possible. also I think my motors are bad. It sounds like the ball bearings have got sand in them, they go clacklacklack...
so... I'm wondering what motors and props i should buy for maximum flight time.I also wonder if you guys have some tips and/or tricks to make things as light as possible.
Thanks in advance!
