A design doubt in drone

Posted by Srikar on August 7, 2017 at 7:22am

I am a newbie in drone making, I plan on making a drone, using co-axial motors( basically I am sticking two motors to each other in opposite direction.)

Also, the co-axial motors will be used only for lifting the drone up. I am planning on putting two motors back and front horizontally. I have some doubts though like is there a way to turn left and right.

Yes, differential rotation speed will cause the vehicle to yaw in hover, and regular control surfaces will work in forward flight.

can you explain in detail, which motors differential speed are you talkin about? Thanks
