When gravity isn't enough.....

Dear fellows,

This is my first post - and I am therefore untouchable (like on a honeymoon). Don't bite please. ;-)

Does anyone know if it is possible to have "reverse thrust" (ie motor running in reverse command from transmitter) to help gravity pull the quad towards earth? Could give me a small advantage when FPV racing. Could also be pretty useful for freestyle tricks like helis.

Cheers,

Kim H.

  • What you're looking for are "3D" or "reversible" ESCs; here's a quad using them:
