The Quanum Trifecta sold through Hobbyking is a circa 295mm Tri-copter that folds for transport yet still carries 8″ propellers. In my first post I gave a bit of background on the project and following on from that this post will give a rundown of the parts sourced for the build.
There’s also a Forum Thread covering the whole build timeline!
Lets go Shopping
As you’d expect a lot of the parts have come from Hobbyking – but I also took advantage of Banggoods low prices even if their shipping is painfully slow!

What Else?
Not much really – because I’ve already got the great Flysky FSi6S transmitter I’ve only added another receiver.
The SP Racing EVO Clone I’ve got is equipped with a barometer so I’ll be flying with the self-centering sticks Mode-2. This is going to be the first foray into the world of iNav and I’m looking forward to the new challenges that will bring with it.
