Nice setup he has there. It is good to help such a talent anyway possible to achieve the very best. The best of luck to him.

Watching now. I’ve been wanting to see some more hybrid frame reviews! Thanks! 8:55 bottom right of the screen

Ive been testing this on my merrica build and can feel it turns much easier around corners. I cant wait to see more results of this, keep it up.

You're kicking ass with the latest series of videos Mike! Keep it up. Loving them.

Fantastic results, dude! Pretty impressive! 😃

Great video and congrats Christian

Great video, I have the Proton Skeleton with fin and love it. Was just talking last weekend at the track about doing this, interesting to see you doing this with no one better to test it with! Vanover is crazy fast! Syringe is at 8:55 bottom right corner.

Very interesting test ! Hope I get to try the Proton 😉

omg !!!! blown away by vanover's skills

8:55 Syringe appears fast flash. Bottom right on screen. I enjoyed learning about the different arm sizes used on a quad. Sounds intriguing. Makes sense about the propwash issue. Thank you for the demo and looking forward to seeing the next video update.

Now we’re talkin. Great vid! Very informative

Great video! I also have both Proton Skeletons and Canopy versions.

22.31, I like the configuration, it makes a lot of sense. I haven't tried it yet though so I'm excited to do so

The frame looks cool. Hope to try one.

Like I've been telling people for a year now (yup) - it's definitely an improvement, but it's a tiny one and only present in a few moves. Feels a touch more planted in negative AoA moves, by that I mean the back end is a tiny bit more stable so you can focus on pinning it out of Split-S, Powerloop, and Hairpins. It's one of those 2% improvements that add up, and it still comes with a ~10g weight penalty overall, but I feel it's worth it. Good to see Mike feels the same with, with the Neutron-R basically supporting that setup out of the box.

Great job Mike...I love my ProTon! It's 6" so...at first I thought it was on the grill by the stairs 8:54

8:54 bottom right Haha I seen it pop up before the end of the video lol, vanober is a wizard, and flighclub is killer! Great work guys.

As I am getting into the racing field I love watching all your videos! captainvanover can really make a drone scream hope one day to be almost as good. I really couldn't find the syringe but loved the video You really rock it .

The objective approach is appreciated. I don't have the skill to actually test this for racing but give 6" or 5.5" props in the rear a shot with 5" in the fron. May sound crazy at first but the strategy is the same. SX, wide rear, Z or step geometries all attempt to improve the effectiveness of the rear props. The biggest obvious issue will be the annoyances to roll performance....which the code today may account for. The other thing is weight distribution on the quad however that's a more so based on comfort with the setup.

@FlightClubFPV

5 жыл бұрын

don't you think putting bigger props in the rear would make the quad react slower? it's much hard for a motor to spin a 6" vs 5" prop. i'll be doing some testing this week and report in part 2 of this video

@Kabab

5 жыл бұрын

@@FlightClubFPV yes and no. Maybe the 5" in the front will pull up the slack enough to make it not all that noticeable. I would guess that in long sweeping turns, the 6" in the rear should feel really good and the quad should feel more like a snowboard tracking in a turn. However the roll response may be too weird in general to consider actually using full time.

I actually have the mck xbee and the SX vs HX the SX is way more responsive and faster in a Stra8 line and corners which you can definitely see the difference. To me the HX feels like you need more higher rates.

@poulmartinmller4094

5 жыл бұрын

....when running different props why still run identical motors? in nature you see different setups for speed and for agility. when racing tight courses a rabbit setup seems optimal in my test. I also tested with angeling(?) the motors inward up front and outward at the back to maximize grib. This strain of thought brings different motor sizes on the same quad into play since their roles are now more clearly defined.in freestyle, flying styles like inZane fpv's, should benefit a lot, but that dude's skills need no help what so ever, so these thoughts are for the rest of us :-)

1m 33s amazing flight footage, interesting experiment

this video was epic!

Weird, I was actually testing this today! I've got a set of 5" X, 5" SX, and 6" X and for the Proton and I've been trying them out. Favourite so far is 6" true-X with 5" props. Quad feels super stable and under control. The 5SX /6X hybrid I didn't like very much, felt like... understeer? I was having a hard time getting my nose into the corner. I actually preferred the 5SX/5X hybrid, it's more subtle but it has a nice feel to it, like it's carving a little more.

Man he’s fast like dam

8:55.00 I am trying 2206/2450kv BrotherHobby R4 in front and 2207/2550kv Emax LS on the rear with same kind of props. I havn't try to really compare it to normal all same motors though, lazy to swap the rear motors. I did this coz I want to relieve the rear motor work load. Notice that rear motors are hotter than front motors every flight. However, the quad I build with differ motor results in all 4 motors hotter than I used to. But it has higher ESC output(old quad use 25A and 20A ESC, new differ motors quad use 40A ESC). So I am doubting is the all motors getting hotter is due to the 40A ESC?

I've run two of the Minchan Hybrid frames (MCK and XBAir), I keep coming back to a plain old true X or a stretch though. There is a different feel on the roll axis and I also notice I tend to clip the back arms on gates a little more until I get used to it.

Why did you use 6" true X for the rear rather than 5" true X?

@Plur307

5 жыл бұрын

If I had to guess it would be to get the rear props into cleaner air. When I look at blackbox data on a True X the rear motors are usually working a little harder than the front. The rear motors usually have like 5%-10% more throttle applied. By extending them a little farther to the rear this gets them away from the turbulence of the front props.
