My 12s E5 with Hacker A50
« on: February 14, 2013, 08:15:25 PM »
Hey guys, thought I would post up some pics of my E5 with the Hacker A50 motor to show that it DOES fit.  :)

My setup is:
E5 non-stretched
Running Rail 556/96
Hacker A50 10L 580kv
Castle 120hv
Gryphon Regulator
MKS 950/980
Pulse 12s 2600mah packs
AR7200bx with a satellite

Enjoy the pics

Both sides of the heli



Gyro tray-



Under the boom block-


ESC/BEC- (BEC is barely visible underneath the wires)



Motor-


As you can see in the following picture the motor DOES rub on the frames. About the bottom 5 cooling fins rub on the frame, I just let the motor wear-in because the rubbing was minor and didn't cause any issues in flight.


As you can see it was a very tight fit



Thanks for looking!

A friend of mine has a video of me flying it, i'll try to get the video, or get someone to take video of it this weekend. I'll post the video in this thread whenever I get it.  :)

Thanks! I won't take credit for the wiring though, it was done by a good friend of mine. I let him wire all of my machines.  ;D  12s is pretty awesome, its completely un-boggable.

Great Job!! Look forward to a video!

Best,

Kevin

What is the red "Remove Before Flight" attached to?  Tell me that thing has a pitot tube!

That is a gryphon fail safe switch. Something me and my friends all put on our helicopters. I can plug in my batteries in the pits, put the canopy on...walk out to the field. And as soon as I pull that little red "remove before flight" flag, the helicopter initializes.


It is also a low voltage indicator, flashes VERY bright red when I hit low voltage.

Very Cool, thanks for the link!  Only for use with the Gryphon Regulator or can it be incorporated into any flight system?

It only works with the Gryphon hv and lv regulator. The fail-safe plugs directly into the Gryphon regulator.


Well you guys wanted videos, so here's the first of two. Me and a friend were trying to get some aerial footage with his multi-rotor...and another friend of mine was taking video on the ground. If the aerial footage turns out good i'll post that as well.  :)
