Interesting design. Reverse maple leaf propeller spring loaded to switch in to a twin prop flying wing.
VTOL without the landing.
Lack of control surfaces as far as i can tell. Tilt rotor wouldn't be a far stretch. Might be able to hack it together using a hobby servo.
Seems difficult to control, so I guess the real innovation here is the concept rather than the implementation. They made it cheap, what can be done for a little bit more money? The airframe itself seems pretty refined, just looking at it. Blending a propeller in to a flying wing must have been an interesting challenge. Really aggressive pitch it looks like.
What are everyone's thoughts?
