  • Опубликовано: 29 июн 2024
  • This is the build and top speed runs of the version 3 atomrc dolphin. Serious aerodynamic modifications has been made to this radio controlled plane ( airframe ) in order to push the boundaries and achieve incredible top speeds and also withstand the top speeds achieved in this video. The record stands at 190mph by " Jeff does this " with his twin motor build. In this video i set a new record for a single motor 6s atomrc dolphin. The modification's made to my airframe will allow it to push past the 200mph mark. The aerodynamic modifications plus the electronic upgrades allows full control of the aircraft at top speed unlike the other versions i have built in the past. Today i got i rite and tomorrow i will set a new record for this airframe.
    INTRO - 00.00 to 00.20
    V3 BUILD - 00.35 to 04.05
    speed runs - 04.05 to 08.18

    Finally... a real speed test that is not a dive. Nice work on this really appreciate the mods to go faster! I have a Dolphin and run it with 5s but was not looking at really high speeds, although it is capable of 120 mph. I do have a Strix Goblin and my top for it on 4s is 140 mph. I know many go faster but like the way they fly so effortless at speed have not modified it more. Currently working on a Nano Goblin and doing some of the same tricks you have done here to beat the current speed record with it on 6s. Great video, appreciate the detail to go fast!! Oh, one more thing... have a look at the EMAX Avan props. They are, in my testing way better than one would think at high speed. A 6x3.8 is faster than it should be and still has some bottom end power so stalling is not an issue.

      Thanks man, the Goblins are a fantastic airframe and you will have a lot of fun with it. I’ll be sure to try the prop you mentioned on my next speed run. I have ordered a new motor with the hope of breaking the 200mph so keep an eye out for a further video to come……Rotorflex👍

    Great job my friend😊
    What pitch prop are you running you need to go smaller diameter more pitch that will equate to more speed 😊 I proved it on my funjet and my dolphin ! I'm running a 4.25 by 5.5 cut down camspeed prop and reaching 185mph in level flight and 206 from a shallow dive ! 4s high kv. Inrunner !! Hopefully soon I will be able to make and post a video 😊 I'm rooting for you rotor flex 😊

    Mate 176mph Brilliant for a real dolphin single motor pusher prop it looks like a dolphin the fastest 6s single motor on youtube you hold the title mate
    as that Jeff guy iis NOT as he has 3 motors and everyone knows extra motors cause drag a dolphin only has ONE MOTOR so you are KING OF SPEED
    Jeffs 190 was completely BULL

    Id apply lightweight glass cloth and epoxy to the wings to give them rigidity and a high gloss finish. Balsa Elevons....This is the occilation cause in the dive....You need an eight inch pitch prop to go faster. The prop could also be holding it back....Gliders go faster...lol...😏😏🇬🇧

    • @torquedude
      @torquedude  Месяц назад +1

      @EnglishTurbines, During the flight i thought all was well until i was editing the video and seen the occupations at max speed. The wings have been shortened to reduce the leaver affect plus drag, the laminate is extremely strong making the wings very stiff but part of me now wishes i had glasses them to remove all doubt. The main thing is that i still have full control at high speed and no unwanted rolling is occurring. I am using a 5x5 speed prop at the moment with a 2200kv motor, A larger prop is an interesting concept to me and believe me your not the first to suggest this on youtube but it has always went against what i have been taught and learned from my fast nitro days. The theory i was taught was a smaller prop will allow the engine to rev out in the air and not act as an airbrake (windmilling) when the engine is getting close to its peak rpm allowing a little more extra top end speed and performs better in a dive that a larger prop. I am definitely willing to give the larger prop ago as you have suggested so i will match it with a lower kv motor to stop me melting another one. Some gliders definitely go faster, i have quite a few models that will outperform this dolphin but i want to keep pushing this little PNP foamy to see what i can get out of it for giggles 🤭. Thanks for your comment and the suggestions. I will let you know how i get on with trying a larger prop..... Rotorflex 👍🏼

      @@sebastiantomczyk4577 great question. Atomrc has designed the dolphin to fly at low and mid speeds ( 15 to 100mph ). On the original design the combination of motor up thrust, downward facing winglets and tapered tail fins allow the dolphin to be very stable at low speeds. I had to remove these features to achieve the high speeds on 6s but at a cost. My dolphin is no longer stable at low speeds so I have to land a little faster than normal. Atomrc have definitely done a great job with their design but I want to see how far I can push this airframe…..Rotorflex
