RealFlight G2 "Logo Immitator" by Dana Ferguson

Dana says:

...behaves like mine, in terms of flat out climb from hover to say 100 feet, roll, pitch, inertia, etc. Since I've never seen a real logo 20 in action, that will have to wait. Set the governor(radio adj %) to approx 1750/1800 RPM, and use the 600 mm blades. I know it's not the exact machine spec, but it's closer to the actual performance the Logo 10 delivers. I suspect it's because of the differences in the physics, which are set up for slimers, the software expecting a very narrow torque band or something.. This one also runs for about 8 Minutes, which is a bit long, but imagine you are using my ultra metal 3000's, which are really spiffy, and do run for that period.

RealFlight G2 LOGO 20 by Mike Griffin

Mike offers this model to try.... Put the "Foiler" file in the "ColorSchemes" folder and the other 3 files in the "Planes" folder. Says Mike, "The soft start of the ESC is not soft enough, and the motor sound just above 0 RPM is strange. It is based on the Foiler 60.  Some of the specifications don't match the LOGO20 exactly, but often Realflight G2 model's specifications are for flight realism, not exact physical duplication. It flys, looks, and sounds pretty good."

I don't agree with all that's written here as being necessary (for instance only 2 motor mounting bolts are necessary), but I figured that free "constructive" press is a good policy;) Thanks, Don!

Danal Estes' LOGO 10 "motorization " spreadsheet

(Downloads) (View)

Danal Estes contributed this spreadsheet that allows easy estimation of Headspeeds for a Logo 10's various Motor/Battery/Pinion combinations. It is Logo10 specific only in that it comes preloaded with all currently available Pinions for a Logo 10 and many possible Logo 10 motors. It allows you to easily add your own motors. The spreadsheet requires Microsoft Excel; opening directly in the browser requires Internet Explorer. In either case, you may get a security popup regarding macros - Answer "Yes" or "OK" to enable macros. If you prefer not to enable macros, the spreadsheet will still work - see the "Instructions" tab in the spreadsheet for details.

Danal Estes' photo gallery

Danal Estes created a photo gallery with large and detailed close ups of his Logo 10. There are galleries for Stock, the lower frame mod to carry LiPos, and various Fans/Heatsink combinations. If you're on dial-up, these will require some patience; there are thumbnails for all galleries... and they start here: http://www.desquared.org/html/logo_10.html
