This unique VTOL has a simple design which makes it more reliable, more efficient, more light and more stable, It can also perform accurate landings and hovering on windy weather. conditions.
Harnessing wind energy to gain lift while hovering is clever. The entire platform does move a lot. Looks like it may be challenging to get an existing gimbal on this. Have you tried?
Granted, this one has a certain degree of novelty to it. But it still feels like someone having just discovered the wheel and trying to patent all the different ways you can mount it to a frame.

Aerodynamics is not convincing. the unit falling from the sky when the engines of
I had in mind a very similar concept... Nice job guys
There is only about 90 degrees tilt, most gimbals can do more, but there are few other ways.
Better be inexpensive as there is not much to it. Quite interesting though.

Hi John
well a bird have just wings, stabilizers and body so there is not a lot to "play" with.
But this combinations makes it a great unique VTOL that do great on conditions when other VTOL fail.
