    Manned multirotor

    Haha, OMG! Seriously, read up, learn, think, reflect, THEN judge/comment. You are 90% clueless. Its a penta system, all of them running simultaneously. Obviously not safe by any conventional means, but the safest DIY manned multi currently out there as far as I am aware of. I have turned off 16...

    Manned multirotor

    A speed test has been on my list for a long time, and now is finally the time. The structure is optimized for light weight and hovering flight, which becomes apparent in this speed test where the back side of this design becomes apparent, namely high drag. Sitting in the chAIR it fees pretty...

    Efficient diy propellers + scratch built quadcopter

    Just playing around with tech stuff (as ALWAYS!) I discovered that you can build surprisingly efficient propellers from cylindrical objects, or laminated on top of one. Flight of scratch built 1:4 scale :mrgreen: quad at the end of the movie. JQmFwtc0HOw Youtube channel...

    DIY electric motors

    Hi, Project status: I’m still waiting for Luke, liveforphysics, to get back to me with a corrected building instruction text. However, I seem to have lost contact with him, he does not respond to the e-mails I send him. I have made some progress though. I have now rendered the final...

    7 RC sensorless controllers running 1 very neat DIY motor.

    Yes, time is a major factor.... And speaking of time; i once dismantled a car alternator with the objective to rewind the stator and build a permanent magnet rotor. After a few test windings around a pair of teeth I realized how hard that would be an how time consuming it was, so I started to...

    7 RC sensorless controllers running 1 very neat DIY motor.

    Hi all! I believe that it is possible to build very efficient motors with amateur means. :D Water cooled version single ESC motor. I have built motors slightly more efficient than the Turningy motor in picture, also more efficient then some Plettenberg motors. I have compared the power...

    7 RC sensorless controllers running 1 very neat DIY motor.

    Hi, and again, thanks for the positiv spirit. “What did you have in mind to run this motor in, perhaps an ultralight plane?” I have though about building a paramotor back pack. I used to have a paragliding license, but I have decided to put it in a Yamaha 125TZR motorcycle to get...

    DIY electric motors

    Interesting link, Dean, thanks. Well, I did not manage to cope with the heating of my homebrew ESC at power levels above 500 Watt so i decided to switch to a 3phase motor design. This actually results in a motor even easier to build since you do not have to think about the right position for...
