1. Description

After seeing the different creations allowing chasing at 300kmh, I also wanted to create a more aerodynamic machine in order to reach 200km/h more modestly but in 4" light. The basic goal was to stay below 250g, but it is complicated in this 6S 550mah version which comes out at 317g.

I also wanted to keep it as cheap as possible, which is why this machine uses the carbon chassis of the TBS Race Pod, in 4" here, but the canopy and battery holder can also be adapted without problem to the 5" version.

3. Assembly

You will need to equip yourself with 8 20mm spacers threaded in 2mm, this is the only modification to be made to the original chassis. To mount the spacers, they are screwed opposite each other on the chassis using a piece of 10mm threaded rod (or 12X2mm screws from which you will have cut off the head). The TPU canopy and the finned battery holder are then threaded onto these spacers.

This is the only modification to make, so you can continue to use the chassis for racing or freestyle once you get tired of breaking the sound barrier...

4 Propellers

I'm using 4X4X3 propellers, but I think bipales should be better. Hard to find in 4", but easy in 5"…

5 The flights

It flies, that's for sure, because tested in my living room :-) I will post the outdoor DVRs here...

So, the maiden was done in very bad conditions… We'll see when spring will come !
