Puedes diseñarlo tu mismo, usa un inventor generative model, está herramienta en base a los parámetros que tu estipules puede generar formas orgánicas que optimicen el peo o la resistencia. Debes hacer unos cuantos cálculos y definir las restricciones y listo. Tienes un modelo optimizado listo para imprimir o fabricar mediante algún proceso definido.

This is the most lore-accurate one I ever seen. So many forget about horizontal tail fan that does the pitching.

Very cool. C&C has always been one of my favorite games.

Wow this is awesome! The final tricopter looks like it flies very well! I am looking forward to more details!

This is so much more impressive that most people will understand, like to get that thing to actually FLY and fly that well is incredible!!

The design, process and visualization of this project is amazing and cool

Thats just outstanding. Guy in his shop making "Gaint step for Mankind" kind of break thru. Also - There's a call for you... Its the US DARPA Military Think Tank...

This makes me even more exited for the future. It's ironic how a design like this makes fans feel outdated. Image this design with silent ionic thrusters or something. that would be dope.

Printed in carbon fiber nylon this would be nearly indestructible. Please let the 3D printers of the world play with this design and improve upon it. Only by freeing the data can we all improve the world together.

Very cool project. I haven't seen much of this generative structures, so that was awesome to see. But please turn down or off the music when talking, it's rather distracting.

That was also one reason for starting the project. Not enough good topology optimization videos out there. Thanks for noting on the volume.

This is an awesome video. I wouldn’t have thought this came from a channel with less than a thousand subs

Skynet had the same idea.

An autentic 'Hunter-Killer'.

I'm amazed by such a great design, also the rendering is perfect, with textures and all the components that the model needs. Thanks for the inspiration!

It is a very interesting thing !

I've always wanted to make an Orca. Well done!

Flash back to my 90s childhood lol. You guys releasing STL files for the Orca? great work

Such a fascinating design, and design process. That the drone was able to meet weight, plus rigidity constraints and it flew quite well, is very impressive! Would like to see more details of topology optimization design process used in a future video. A simple design, to focus on tools used and the design process. Have seen discussions/graphics of topology optimization designs, but never applied to creating actual working object(s).

Very underpowered drone.

this gives me some very geeky ideas. You ROCK!

Nice explanation and demo, great work, thank you.

Amazing! Well done!

Incredible of what modern simulation software is capable of already and awesome that he really build it, looking forward to the 2nd loop.

So perfect sir

I can't wait to buy a kit. Great job.

Cool stuff 🎉

Looks really cool, awesome job!

Very cool dude. Excited to see what you do next!

Woah, great project :)

This is actually amazing!

Excellent Post. More like this and you'll have hundreds of thousands of followers.

Awesome ! The flight part is perfect with act on instinct in background :-)

+1 for the orca

Reminds me of some of monophans works. Awesome project!

This made me really happy.

That is fantastic!! Keep it up!

Amazing work!! Subscribed!

Good Job! Bravo!

That looks amazing !!

GIIIIVEEEEE MMEEEEEEEE THEEEEEEE SSSSTTTCCCC!

Process is real smart. Final vehicle looks a little underpowered, but the design should be able to adapt and adjust for that nicely through ongoing itterative fine tuning.

Great video! liked and subscribed.

This orca was awesome to pilot in C&C renegade :) awesome work :)

I love C&C. And now take my money for the frame kit :)

I hope the updated version gets flip out wings and a go fast mode. Awesome!

So weldon this lecture sir

Holy crap you literally brought a piece of my childhood to life. Are you planning on sharing/selling the files at all?

Wow! ‘Engineering!‘ - RA2

just what I was looking for some time ago

Very cool!

Absolutely amazing! I´ve always wanted to build an RC Orca myself but that project never went past the static display phase (files can be found thingiverse if anyone wants to have a scale model). Would be really interesting to know how much extra weight can be added before the flight characteristics become worse.

That's amazing!

Now do an orca helipad with LEDs in it. and make it wireless charge that thing. 😎

Very cool! It reminds me of the HK flying craft from the Terminator series too.

Cool !

Thats sick dude!

Great Project !. What kind of software is runnig on the FC ? ArduPilot, INAV or something else ?

BetaFlight. A little tricky to use as it assumes the rear rotor can tilt. Hower it still does a splendid job and people provide it for free!

You should make more projects like this one. This is very cool looking designe. subscribed

😮 wie geil ist das denn?

i am in Love! the movement is like the ingame , the Orca is my Favorite Unit of the GDI xD *Start instll cnc remstered*

this topology is inspiring

Now I want more

Beeindruckend. Video von der Kamera wäre interessant.

I think i've just seen the origin story of the HK units ;-).....awesome work BTW

Oh god the technology of peace. I dreamed on building a RC orca many, many times I love the whole VTOL concept and the ORCA is really unique, I love the fact that on your make it feels really like a fighter, moving easily forward and not howering that much like many other similar builds looks moves moslty like quadracopters. It really feels unique *note, please add a couple leds on the sides and some kind of flashlight to the front would feel awesome

Well done. Recently got a 3D resin printer for model train, started printing gears and soon gear boxes. But it got me thinking, robotics. I really hate the current generation of subtractive machined ugly bots. I was thinking about AI generated skeletons and lightweight materials. Warzone2100 is my current game, not just because it has "AI" that can be modded. You have a new sub.

Oh shit, It actually flies

I like this

Too cool

BRAVO.

amazing, i also hav a design in mind which i would like to bring to life.

I've always wanted to make a drone based on the Orca (Tiberian Dawn version). It looks like you're flying as a tri-copter (can't be sure); are you looking into doing thrust-vectoring control for forwards flight?

Dude!! The Orca was such an inspiration since childhood! This is insanely awesome. Can we buy the STL? I want to print it for my desk.

Epic

I've been trying to create simple topology optimized structures for bicycles for forever and fusion 360 hasn't worked at all, ill check out Altair hopefully they are more intuitive!

Very cool! So when are you going to build a much larger scale version?

You know whnen I see videos of these type of design and builds it makes me wonder if the U.S. Military has made any prototypes like this? The concept and designs on these small scale products work but what about large full scale? I realize the cost would be enormous due to all the mechanical and electronics involved but I keep wondering if we'll see these in real life? Anyway great video. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Can't wait to see more.

Full-scale model next!

interesting how closely it resembles an aerial hunter-killer from the 1984 Terminator

Realy nice, do you plan on releasing the 3d printing files?

You may be able to solve the 'pitching forward' issue, by using a reverse thruster assembly on the rear duct. It will allow some of the air to be directed upwards, preventing the tail from lifting, which has always been a problem with VTOL craft.

Cool Vid! It's insane how far we have come manufacturing and modelling wise. How did you smooth out the topology optimised structures? Did you remodel the parts?

@powerofn2858

In the Software (Inspire), there is a feature called "Polynurbs". It is perfect to transfer topology optimization results into a clean CAD. With a standard CAD programm, I would surely have gone nuts ;)

This is what the terminators flew.

Need to submit the design to darpa this is better than what they working on 😂😂

Grate that looks awsome. Where did you share te files? Nice video. I like drawing in Autodek Inventor myself

That is awesome, now to plan a production version for us all to buy?

So do you plan on sharing the files so others can replicate your work?

@powerofn2858

24 күн бұрын

Thanks for asking :) It's a prototype and also needs some special FC tuning, so sharing it with good quality needs more preparation. I currently focus on developing the next model. If many people want an Orc though, there will be a way!

sieht gut aus und da kann man wirklich noch viel optimieren. Wenn es unbedingt ducts sein müssen würd ich eher auf 5-6 Zoll gehen. Die Flugzeiten sind dann etwa besser. Ducts fressen mindestens 20% vom Schub, bei kleinen mehr, bei den größeren weniger. Eigentlich will man gar keine ducts, das will nur das Marketing wegen der Optik.

well done, which software did you use for the optimization ?

@powerofn2858

Thank you! I used Altair Inspire. In the background, the program runs Altairs Optistruct solver.

You should try printing props with unevenly spaced blades, maybe it will quiet it down, see Airbus helicopter fenestrons.

tutorials. using open source solutions. would be worth subscribing to. but what you did was really cool

Amazing work! Can you please let me know what software you used for the topology optimisation? I've seen there is an add-on for FreeCad but I don't think it is stable for the latest versions. Thanks!

@powerofn2858

Thanks! I used Altair Inspire. It can also handle the CAD creation, worked pretty well for me. They usually give away free licenese for students, just contact them.

Are there ways to take the print direction into account for the topology optimization? Because such anisotropic materials that delayer easier, you would expect different optimal thicknesses in different directions.

@powerofn2858

22 күн бұрын

Good question. I assumed isotrope behavior, which should have been nearly correct for Multijet Fusion PA12. Turned out it wasn´t, too brittle on impact, maybe because of anisotropy. Current solution is to use PA11, which is way more ductile! Until now, anisotropy seems no big issue with that material.

wow

interested in how you set up the controls. how does it know the angle to turn the thrust pods etc.

Wow. I'm blown away. This thing is art. Are the models for this available anywhere? Can you give an order of magnitude hint at what the printing costs were? If the models stay private, are you considering of a small commercial run? I'd love to have one of these. [ or v2. ;) ] On the topic of weight optimization, i think your fan shrouds don't need the bell-mouth on the bottom side...

@powerofn2858

24 күн бұрын

Thanks for asking :) Small Comercial run is an option but would currently slow the development of the next design. Shower, if many people want that, go a find a way! The price for printing is middle/high 3 digits due to the size. There's a lot of potential for mass down/cost down.

An awesome project and outcome…. Would love to know your process…. 5 yrs ago I used Hyperworks software with modefrontier and HEEDS to do similar optimisation but the managers are Ford didn’t embrace it as their only focus was cost reduction and not weight/performance improvements…

Wow, that's a great design. I should try to do a topologically generated design some time. I just wish I had access to such a wonderful printer! But maybe I can make it FDM-friendly. I'll be looking for a plugin for Grasshopper that can do the generation for me, I think it's possible.

I know that this video was more of a walkthrough of the whole process, but sometimes I wish there was a simple process on how to program and create those designs. I think you'd be great to explain the process in a simple way. Educational video perhaps? Lastly I think you should try and get sponsored by 3D printers manufacturers that do not use the FDM process such as resin or laser cintering because this sort of design works the best with those kind of printers.
