"@Eddie Weeks. Thank you for the interesting video. Could you please provide any technical details about the hex-copter on the video? Weight total/dry, flight-time, useful weight, propeller size/pitch, brushless motors used, etc.? The video was…"
"@Tyler McGahee.
Let me disagree.
>You have to force the motors to a higher or lower rpm to maneuver.
Exactly. I do force individual motors to a bit higher or lower rpm - why should anything burn?!
> it's not going to spin faster
It is! To some…"
"To Vince Hogg:
>I dont think anyone in their right mind would suggest using a 9lb Lycoming generator.
Can you provide a link to a lighter generator having 2KW power and > 70% efficiency?

"To Vince Hogg:
>Differentials?
>So if one motor demands more lift wont the differential share out the torque to the opposite motor?
Yes, that's the main point! Please read the description carefully - no diff-locks at all ...

"Thanks to everyone who commented on our post and let us clarify the raised issues.
About central generator and "classic" quad-copter design. Let’s compare it with the system we proposed (simple one, without safety feature).

Hi All, We have recently discovered a way to build hybrid gas/electric-powered multi-copters and would like to share it with you. The main advantages are:1) Heavy lift - due to gas engine power2) Long endurance - due to high gas fuel power density3)…
