New Quad

Post by Derek »

I don't know what this is but I sure do like the look of it!!! The motors are tilted forward, too!

I can see that when tilted the props will be on the same plane.
Normally the rear props would have to contend with some prop wash from the front ones.
I would love to see something like this with a servo to adjust the angle.

It was on one of those random posts on Facebook. I saw it. Liked it and then shared it here. Thought it was pretty cool looking!

Yeah man...I post a bit of video about that quad in another thread of mine. I'm loosely basing my next quad on the same design...minus the rotating motors.
