SPAZZY - a new type of Bi-copter

[matwelli]

Quads and other multis essentially shift their centre of thrust horizontally across the frame, bu speeding up/slowing down motors



bicopters shift the centre of thrust horizontally in Roll, by speeding up one side and slowing down the other BUT pitch control is done by rotating the thrust , this achieves the goal of moving the thrust away from the centre, but also adds in a forward/backward pitch.



what i am experimenting with is shifting the thrust fore/aft without tilting the motors, and then tilting the motors seperately for horizontal movement

bit of tuning done, looking better. but i think the whole design needs modification, not something that can be tuned

ok, last video i promise, for a while, on bicopters
very happy, and need to wait for some new servos (these ones are getting clicky), and refine the frame. the top servo needs a diferent gear ratio as its running out of travel, and will be even worse when yaw control is introduced.
