I filled all electronics with two-parts silicon resin
vx3 remote
antenna runs up inside the mast
spanmaxiing propeller from rctestflight YouTube channel
Vesc configured at max 28 battery amp
I could fly, barely. (I weight 95kg)
Next step, I will be testing some RC plane propellers to try improving efficiency.
What motor? I doubt that spanmaxing prop is suitable even though its a efficient prop at the application he tested. The guard also kills power. Take it off and see if that helps.
fair!
At low speed I think it is not that impactful. The frontal cross section is very similar to the one of the motor.
Hard to test the difference compared to the motor pod alone. Would be interesting to run the numbers on drag differences between a long pod and a short one.
Maybe a better an engineer than me
