DroneCon.org is live!

Here’s the latest video of the talks from DroneCon 2014: Robert Lefebvre, “An Introduction to Rotorcraft Dynamics.”

This is the last talk we’ll be posting on DIYDrones, because today we’re announcing the release of www.dronecon.org!

On the site we’ll continue to post videos of this year’s talks, so that those of you who couldn’t make it can still access the material, and those who attended can revisit it. You can also check out the bios and the abstracts from all of our presenters (including Lefebvre’s), and stay in the loop as DroneCon 2015 takes shape. Yes, we’re already thinking of next year!

Once again, thanks to all the attendees and contributors who made this year’s event so memorable. And if you couldn’t make it this year, we look forward to seeing you in 2015 -- but for now, enjoy the talks, and enjoy the site!

  • I just discovered this now. absolutely great information. but how can i find out what motor and prop to use? Most usual motors have suggested props up to 17", but even on a "small" frame you could mount larger props?

  • Thank you Robert for the interesting speech. Keep up the good work on the trad heli firmware!

  • Very informative.  Thanks for sharing this.

    Hi Mike! We’re rolling the talks out one at a time on www.dronecon.org. We need to edit and process the videos, so we’re shooting for posting one a day, and in fact will have a new one this afternoon.

  • Does anyone know when the other talks will be online? This is an amazing resource. Rob, this was extremely informative.

  • Thanks!  As I was writing it, I was worried I'd be done in 10 minutes and then not have anything to fill the time.  Turns out I ran out of time which is why I rushed at the end and basically got cut off.

  • Watched this last night. Fantastic crash coarse in aerodynamics of rotor winged craft. Thanks Rob!
  • Well done Rob. I learned a lot in 23 minutes.

    Regards,

    David R. Boulanger

  • Great talk Robert,

    Covered a lot of important issues for both helis and multis more comprehensively than I have seen anywhere else.

    Best Regards,
