He ho guys!

Some of you already thought, that i stopped my work with the MikroKopter. But that is not the case.
During the last weeks i build up a second (new/old) MikroKopter with my 1.0 FlightCtrl. Also the “old” handmade 1.0 BL-Ctrl got an update with the Vishay FETs (P-Channel: SUD50P04-09L and N-Channel: SUD50N06-09L). The BL-Ctrl 1.0 was updated to a BL-Ctrl 1.1 – that only needed a small hardware change (the address coding). This can be seen in detail on the following picture:

The technical data of the “very-low-cost, very-low-weight and much fun to play with – MikroKopter”:

• Axis centre distance: 40 cm
• Standard Alu-Frame with Centerplates
• FlightCtrl 1.0 (not modified to 1.1 yet – but not really necessary)
• BL-Ctrl 1.0 PCB with modified hardware, so that hardware adressing is possible like BL-Ctrl 1.1
• “Schwimmnudel” PE landing pads (really low cost and low weight)
• E-Sky motors – out of the MK-Shop (they are much louder than the Roxxy, but also much cheaper and for the first (or in my case the second) MikroKopter completely ok.
• LEDs to be able to fly in the night/evening. (got from my Company, where I’m currently working: http://www.tridonicatco.com/ LED P510/511) They can be directly driven by the LiPo (11.7 Volts)
• Standard 3S1P Lipo
• ACT receiver (also out of the MikroKopter Shop)

And now some additional pictures of my second “Training-Kopter” with LEDs :

Also i received a new Video-Transmitter from Hong-Kong. But more details later…
