I am building a tricopter as per Davids Version 3. My last multi was a 250 class quad, which flew exceptionally well, but was not really the direction I wanted to go. Both David and Josh seem to favor tricopters for photography, so that is where I am going.
However, money, as always, is an issue, so I would like to use what I already have leftover, namely two 1400kv motors, and one 980kv. Any thoughts on using the two 1400's on the front arms (with 8" props) and the 980 on the rear with a 10" prop (all have 30amp ESC's)? My FC is a Naze 32 10DOF.
Just for general interest, I made the frame parts and legs out of aluminum, and the arms out of cedar (wood). Looks good!
