(II) Quadcopter project with frame Tarot Iron Man 650, Maytech motors 620kv,T-Motor ESCs and 13'' props - Part II

After building the first part of the project, I have progressed a bit more with the Tarot Iron Man 650. I have cut the wires of the motors to add some extra wire so they can go inside the arm tubes and reach the T-Motor 30A ESCs located on the middle plate.

I have decided to keep this middle plate as clean as possible, so I´ll only leave here the electronics (except the Naza Versatile Unit that goes underneath so it can be seen while flying). All the extra wire is laying on the bottom plate, and the batteries will go on the top plate that is not placed yet. I still don´t know where I´m placing the FPV and gimbal batteries though, and the GPS of the Naza M Lite.

There´s a couple of pieces of drinking straws to hold the Futaba R6208SB receiver antennas in place. The camera of the FPV is located on the very front of the bottom plate, between two metal pieces of the frame that fits perfectly the wide of the camera. I have put some foam under it in case it helps reducing vibrations.

So, what is next? Things pending to be done are:

  • Placing the Immersion RC 600mw transmitter,
  • Placing the Naza GPS unit,
  • Placing the top plate for the main battery,
  • Figuring out where to put the FPV and gimbal batteries,
  • Soldering a T-Dean for connecting the main battery,
  • Running the Naza software for the set up,
  • Placing the propellers.

To be continued!!
