Make a TRI rotor!

Post by NV1T »

I hope you guys develop a TRI rotor with a servo on the back for yaw control. Much more agile, potentially less weight (and therefore more flying time). Also less noise, less rotor downwash. Think about it.

Sound interesting but it is not something we are planning. I don't see any direct obstacles we a Crazyflie couldn't be modded to a TRI rotor. You would have to cut two arms and make a new one. The servo mechanism would be challenging though.
