Nice saturday evening flying in Leganes (@Juanki's land). We exhibited our official t-shirts with custom logo :) Unfortunately @Nio was not available, because he is currently kite surfing in Fuerteventura. We miss his expert flying skills!
Introducing the "SPCopter family":
- The "Tiny", a 28 cm M2M based on JoseJulio's design
- The "Robbe", a 50cm M2M on a X frame
- The "Arducopter", a 60cm M2M based on official arducopter parts on a + frame
After five batteries, some crashes and two broken props, our verdict was unanimous. The winner is the "Robbe". Very good manoeuvrability, wind-resistant and providing a lot of fun!
The "Arducopter" was a little unstable, maybe because of the wind, the + frame or the motor distance and props combination. We need to dig into it!
Stay tuned, next week a new member to our SPCopter family is comming: "La perla" a 40cm M2M X frame.
