How does the director of a zoo with a weekend hobby flying remote-controlled planes become enemy number one of the pro-Russian forces in Ukraine? We meet the volunteers helping the Ukrainian army in its war-torn East. A look at the strong volunteer movement in Ukraine that supports the poorly equipped Ukrainian forces to fight pro-Russian separatists in the east. Includes soundbites from volunt...

Ran D St Clair Spin TOL
zhlédnutí 104KPřed 4 lety
The Spin-TOL was an attempt at a VTOL tail sitter design where the rotor blades become wings. The concept has merit, but is complex to implement. I tried to simplify it by using quad-copter style control instead of collective and cyclic pitch but failed. The control authority offered by the quad was insufficient, plus there is a natural instability associated with the fixed pitch rotor. It hove...

    Absolutely %#!!^%( Awsome. Two Questions; did you have to match tune the motors? can you build one I can ride? I suspect the left bias is just due to prop rotation. Might be interesting to do something with counter rotating props.

    Is it based on a standard airplane or are they something specific to this project? Are plans/more info available (for a single)? I'm itching to do a little math about this thing...

    easiest plane to fly???? your loops were extremely sloppy and the landing sucked. i dont think it was you. it looked like the plane wasnt capable of doing any acrobatics and looked awkward and front heavy on the landings. i wanted to buy one but if you cant fly it; i dont think i can either.

    I have a BVM BobCat composite. The BobCat and Bandit “started it all” for RC Jets. These BVM models were, and still are famous for being “slippery fast!”. Bob Violett was a true pioneer. The trend today is the dolphin design .. not quite as fast, and more aerobatic, but for pure adrenaline, the BVM is my go-to.

    without an airfoil design to the ring, there's no energy saved in "airplane" mode, right?

    Looks like Morgan Hill! I still have a scar on my right index finger from starting those engines, and the lovely sting of the Cox fuel in the fresh cut of the sharp plastic propeller. Ah, the good old days.
