"@Jose Luis Cortes Nice, had my doubts but this looks like it can really pack a punch. Is this going to be commercially available?
Also I've heard that one of the reasons Quads can't be scaled was because larger outrunners can't accelerate fast…"
"Looking at your website your drone looks like it has brushless outrunners... Hold on,
You've got 100kg takeoff weight so 25kg+ per motor? What brand are you using?"
"Excellent. I find it distasteful as hell when I see Manufacturers not linking any efficiency info, or even thrust measurements whatsoever, It's as if they expect someone to buy a motor from looking at a picture of it."
"A thought on this: Does this create thrust that is directed into the center of the quad? That is, it seems to me from looking at the diagram that the force vectors from the props would be "compressing" the quadcopter, thus reducing efficiency from a…"
"these guidelines are meant for powerless individuals, not "major newspapers". If you want to embrace the rule-cuckholdry of this system, you will have to learn your place in it."
"Alright mate. I'm not a marketing expert but.. it seems comparable to DJI and 3DR products. If I were you I'd look at my competition,They pay good money for their marketing though so be advised."
"First off.. Did you just delete my critique comments and leave the good ones out? Congratulations you just lost the trust you had earned. It's an incredibly disrespectful thing to do.
Secondly I know how you can use a GoPro since I own one, but it's…"
"Alright I checked it. The stats were not bad especially the speed compared to flight time. , not sure about the GoPro though. It's a good gadget but eeeh, overpriced. Keep up the good work and remember this is a professional-ish UAV forum, we're not…"
"The FAA seems concerned about drones as a terrorist threat and a lot of these laws relate to neutralizing ways of creating weaponized systems. Weight, line of sight, flying over crowds, more than one aircraft.. mental conditions. Quite the american…"
"Hello, Excellent. I've looked at this motor you were linking and it's, like most VP props a bit too small and intended for paper/foam with no real pull.
I am interested in your work and if your props are going to be giving good push(maybe 500g…"
"Seems useful in autonomous drone industries such as delivery and scouting.
It'll have to have a low weight and easy installation/integration. If those two are met I'd be willing to pay something like 115 $ for each drone being upgraded with the…"
"Being fully aware of the practicality issues, I'm simply experimenting.
VP-propellers can give reverse thrust and good efficiency numbers at variable speeds, more so than fixed ones. So if the weight drawback is low, it'd make sense for an…"
At the moment I am looking at a fixed wing UAV which can take-off by itself, so that you don't have to throw it off the ground.A variable pitch propeller is used in conventional aircraft for this, and are usually engineered for the plane, but can…
