Hi,
I am building my next project around a Speedybee Bee35 frame.
Most of my projects are Arducopter controlled in conventional four motor layout but different sizes., 16” > 4”. I prefer Arducopter and its deeper configurations but have used most others.
The Bee35 is a Cinewhoop, 3.5” with inverted motors, something I have never built before.
Maybe I am over thinking the implications but I hope someone might clarify my thoughts.
The build is initially on a Quad X CF platform with a conventional layout, ESC on the bottom of the stack, in my case Speedybee F405 30.5x30.5 stack. I have used before and set the ESC to Bluejay.
The motors placed out conventionally. Normally I use the BetaFlightX motor configuration.
When the Quad X platform is complete it is inverted into the prop-guard/duck frame.
This makes the stack and motor configuration inverted.!
My confusion, perhaps over-thinking. I’m 73 so mind boggling comes easily
- How does this affect the setting for the Stack as far as orientation and what needs to be set in Arducopter?Would the initial AHRS_ORIENTATION Roll180 be sufficient or Accel Calibration be compromised, possibly not I assume?
- How does this alter, if it does, the motor layout? When flipped Motor 1 becomes Motor 3 and Motor 4 becomes motor 2? (or A <> D and B <> C I’m Still confused over labelling)
- I would like to set the props as OUT, can I use the BetaFlightXReversed layout?
I have looked for similar configuration in Arducopter forums but have not found any.
Thanks in advance for any comments.
