FPV Easystar build UPDATED

in the video it was just test flying with all the equipment but not with FPV on!

FPV Easystar build v1.0

Here we are going to show you with what and how you can build a FPV easystar with the least amount of money :).

the things we used for our FPV easystar
800Mw 900mHz Transmitter
900mHz Receiver
Multiplex Easystar
Turnigy 1130kv 15A brushless motor
6*4 APC propellor
4 Turnigy 1130kv 15A brushless motorHXT 9 gram servo's
15-18A ESC
HK 420tvl 1/3'' sony ccd
2200mah 3cell 25c lipo(flight battery)
1000mah 3cell 25c lipo (FPV battery)
JR Y servo lead 15cm 

and of course your RC system with a minimal of 6 channels, spare channels are always handy :).

 The Build

Unpack your easystar and glue everything together just get the plane almost ready to fly but DO NOT install the electronics YET!

Get the vertical stabilizer and cut out the shape of the FPV transmitter like so;

 then cut a compartment for your FPV battery in the belly of your fuselage like this; and pull your wires through

if you did that you can install you rudder and elevator servo's and check if your FPV battery fits in the compartement.

then you can go ahead and make a motor mount for your motor we used 5mm thick multiplex board

check if your motor fits the mount and then glue on the mount with 10 min. epoxy and let it COMPLETELY dry. And if it's dry install your 6*4 APC propellor.

 then cut a relief for the ESC in the "neck" above the wing slot. like this;

and also a VERY IMPORTANT thing is to paint the nose of the fuselage black at the top so if there is a lot of sun your camera wont break.

The wings

now for the ailerons.

you need to have either a foam cutter or a exacto knife.

i suggest to cut it 20 cm from the fuselage and cut them 25 cm long and 4,5 cm wide;

now you need to install the aileron servo's
you need to select where you want to put the servo's and draw the outline of them on the wing. then pry out the foam untill the servo is flush with the BOTTOM of the wing. Then you want to center your servo's and glue them in with a bit of hot-glue.

now cut a slot for the servo wire to go through.

now it's time to install the Y lead for the ailerons! cut slots for the servo busses and also for the cable so that you can make it flush with the other foam. like this

now check if this works and then you are done with the wings!!!!!!!!

now test all the electronics and FPV equipment for flaws of any other issues and if everything works we hope you have as much fun FPV'ing as possible with your easystar!!

if you have any suggestions for improvement please put them in a reaction like nonamerc

MORE TO COME!
