Getting closer to a final design

I think i have all the major mechanical components of the hover bot now sorted.

Ducted fan:
Weomtec midfan pro + ARC3675-1 motor

Apparently this motor will output 3.6Kg of thurst @ 2480 watts and 4.5kg of thrust @ 3000+ watts. Rc people seem to love knowing the absolute maximum performance of all their parts. My concern is that the engine will not be designed to operate continuously with thrusts this high.

Batteries:
2 x Race 2600MAh 4-cell batteries 40c. In series the system will operate at 28v. I should be able to draw just over 3KW from this. The website says that it does not recommend operating the batteries continuously at over 35c (2.7Kw). I am hoping that with good ventilation i can push this a bit farther (if i need to). Initally we will only be operating the hoverbot for seconds at a time so least if we do blow the betteries it will mean we have a functional hovering system! The batteries are definitely the limiting factor. Capacity is not the issue its how fast the batteries can deliver their power.

Speed controller:
Platinum pro 120A
This should get the job done. We will draw about 105 amps hovering stationary, this is rated to 120A continuous (or so they say) so it should be fine

All this comes to about 1.5Kg. I hope to keep the whole vehicle under 3kg. Granted that i havent accounted for the structure, micrococontroller servos and other components but i think 3kg is quite achievable.

Now that i have all my major components (and weights) finalized i need to get on designing the structure and gambling mechanism. I would like to draw up the vehicle so i know exactly how much the airframe will weigh as it could easily blow out the weight.

The other thing i have to do is calculate the range of moments that will be applied to the vehicle from the main engine so i can design the reaction wheel.

I hope to get these two things done in the next week.
