I think it should be possible to have one powerful motor in the center of the drone and distribute its power over the four rotors, the speed of every individual rotor could be varied via a tiny CVT
I think I could build the mechanical part all on my o
Hi everyone,
recently I found the flopbot project, where they have built and flown a monocopter. Has anyone tried a monocopter of their own or to replicate the flopbot?
Any insight or experience you could share would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
When it comes to renting a drone, the cost can vary depending on several factors:
As a crucial component of multi-rotor drones, the motor system has strict reuiqrements on horizontal accuracy. Even minor installation errors or loose parts can affect flight stability. Therefore, regular pre-flight calibration is essential to ensur

I have been always active in fixed wing.
One of my friends asked me to look in, the chances a quadcopter can survive a defect engine, or motor controller ?
The Frame should carry a 5kg sensor package, so, we are talking about a pretty heavy machi
