Re: Running wiring inside heat shrink tubing

I am using brushless motors. I just call the third wire the signal wire so I don't confuse it with the other two.

My frame is going to be aluminum tubing and I want to run the wiring, from the thrusters to the hull, inside the tubing to tidy things up. Can I put each set of wires ( 3 ) , from each thruster, inside a separate length of heat shrink tubing ? Is there going to be a problem with the positive, negati...

Re: I'm jumping in!

Very nice ! I am planning a similar motor layout. What's the angle of your hor thrusters and how did you decide it ?
Is it more efficient to have all 4 pointing to the rear. I was going to have my 2 rear thrusters facing forward but now I may turn them around.

Re: Props - LH or RH?

Also, shouldn't the horizontal thrusters spin in opposite directions? I.e. left thruster spins clockwise with a right handed prop and the right thruster spins counter-clockwise with a left handed prop.

Re: Mini CMOS FPV Camera set up

Ezcap comes with it's own software for capturing and editing, though I have not tried editing yet. Just press record on the screen and it starts recording. The ezcap also has a button on it for taking screen shots. So far I like the ezcap, now to mount the camera on a pan/tilt.
