It's been a while since I published the last update about HYBRiX. We are very excited about how the development is evolving and more than happy with customers response.
For the past few weeks we have been working on finishing our MVP. it has a new look, new frame, more fuel tank capacity, quick release arms...
There are 2 versions, one with 25 inch propellers and the other with 30 inch propellers. Some people seemed concerned about stability issues with big propellers, but I have to say that we are not detecting any issues and both configurations work really well.
In fact, last weeks we had very windy weather here and it is not a problem with Hybrix. It is very stable also with wind.
We are using Pixhawk as a flight controller and making it ruggedized! Aluminium enclosure and military connectors. It looks pretty awesome. We have done some RTL landings and automatic modes seem to run smoothly. We have solved all problems with vibrations.
Next step is to install a long-range system for 25km that we have been previously testing on Spidex and start carrying out some serious missions!

I prefer it over the fuel cell. getting hydrogen cartridge for fuel cell is not practical. pls provide more details of the engine and the generator/alternator.
Agreed - very cool guys, keep up the good work...oh, send me one, I have real work for it:)
I like! Still! ;-)
Desde luego ya habéis conseguido lo que nadie más ha logrado: 4 h de vuelo. Aprovechad para hacer una entrada en el guinness.
Un producto impactante. Enhorabuena.
Yes, Good for long-range flying.
A Gas engine and generator provides DC power, is it correct?
How powerful gas engine is using in the quad rotor?
