Hey guys,I was pretty interested by the Ehang184 & Airbus concepts. I'm doing a little research project into the future of city wide air transportation and I was curious as to how the guys over at Ehang generate so much thrust? What type of motors…

Hey guys,I'm looking to get 2 custom built frames built that can fit a few sensors including the SF40/c LiDAR on top of a gimbal. I'm looking for something either on the lines of the Aztec Firefly (carbon fibre w/ plastic hood) or a design like the…

"Wow dude that looks great! I've dropped you a PM in regards to that. Are you 3D printing these things? 

In regards to the gimbal, the reason why we want one because of the fact that our drone is capable of travelling up to 60MPH, at that speed it…"

"From what I've heard, gimbals may be too slow for it. I'll PM you since you make custom gimbals and we could do with some of that. 

We're not using two LiDAR lite scanners, just the one SF30/b. We've decided to go ahead and order then SF40/c LiDAR.…"

"Thank you! I think this sounds good. The only other issue is how do you control the revolutions per second of the motor since they're brushless. I was using an arduino previously with the stepper motor, ideally I want to get it to do around 2-10…"

Hey guys,I had a quick question around mounting a LiDAR on a stabilised platform on a drone to counteract the pitch/tilt of the airframe. I was thinking about a steward platform with some servos however I'm using something like this below and it…
