I brought together my two loves for one amazing proposal. This is just a cool little video where I go flying with my girlfriend and I air drop her an engagement ring for a successful and creative proposal. I plan to put up some build pics later but it truely is a great flier. On this particular day the wind was out of the SE at about 15mph but the ring still hit it's target.
Here are a few pictures of my current setup.
I'm running 3 DT 750s, 3DR APM 2.6 flight controller w/ external GPS and compass, Turnigy Plush 25A ESCs, the frame is a modified Fortis Airframes Titan with a few added protector shields to house all of my electronics. I also have a Tarot T2 Gimbal and a GoPro Hero 3 Black edition (the Tarot either isn't quite tuned in or it just doesn't like the cold because I'm running the stock setup with factory settings). I needed a last minute landing gear and I have tried just about everything. I'm currently puttingsome thinner aluminum booms to replace the ones shown in the pictures below and I'm putting three lightweight wooden landing legs down in place of the lemonade containers just because it is summer now and I don't need the surface area, plus the lower profile will benefit how the tricopter cuts through the air. I hope you enjoyed this post as it is my first. I'm open to any suggestions or questions and I am looking forward to posting more of my projects as I have many of them in the works and quite a few already completed as well.
