Flite Test - H-Quad Multirotor - REVIEW

Multirotors can be very useful. Imagine a quad-copter combined with a big shelf. Meet the H-Quad. We didn't invent it, but Josh Bixler sure built a good one. It's not quite as aerobatic as an 'X' or '+' quad, however... it sure can haul a lot of FPV crap! Functional multirotors are gaining popularity, so we were certain this would be a worth while build.

This heavy lifter has lots of space and a great layout to get your camera gear way out front.

Enjoy this entertaining review of our scratch built H-Quad.

There are two antennas on the ground station, one is a skew planar and the other is a bow-tie. It's our general purpose ground station.

[BaneOfBoon]

Man... I forgot all about this channel, i used to watch this all the time and then i got sucked into the dark side of YouTube... Thankfully the force was strong with me and i found my way back! lol

If you're asking what I think you're asking, then yes, the quad, with a KK board will continue to fly in that direction. If you're wanting the quad to level out on it's own after returning the stick to center, you'll need a board that has an auto-level feature. The newer KK 2.0 w/ LCD board HK now sells has this feature. I've heard the 2.1 boards can be hacked to include an accelerometer though. . .

That is the best scratch quad I have ever seen--great design! Keep the vids coming all.

@time 2:48 by looks of the propeller setup, propeller setup opposite to X Quad setup its not similar as claimed in the video. In the video, Front Right Prop is CW where as for a X Qaud front right Prop is always CCW in Mission planner.

Have been flying with tape-balanced props for many hours now. Works very well. :-)

I wasn't really into quads until I saw this vid! Very Very cool guys!

[jbalatutube]

This is exactly what I was trying to design. Awesome and easy

[lonewolf]

copter style platforms had never really interested me this is doable!

[FliteTest]

This way we have a ground station ready to go regardless of the antenna we're using on the aircraft at the time.

[AbosoluteAltitudes]

That is awesome! I may have to convert my tricoper into one of those. Great video guys, looking forward to the build log

Static gets you most of the way there. Multicopters are more sensitive to vibration than planes.

[teampullmyfinger]

you can hook up a voltage meter to give you on screen info on battery. blue skies, love your videos!

[bearospace]

really neat, congratulations on a great episode, but i do miss the fixed wing planes, particularly fpv. i enjoy the humor. keep it up, guys. thanks!

[iambillmeyer]

Nice video, great content. I like the scratch-built design vs store bought kit.

[SYNFPVPILOT]

killer scratch build guys! Well done.

you dont need to flash the board to make it fly in X mode, all you need is an elevon mix on the radio and orient the control board 45 deg so it still points to motor 1. that's how i fly mine, and it works great.
