Honestly with the purpouse of use on transport that uses traditional propellers, there's no real need to make them quieter. Theres a reason that no manned aircraft has made good use of toroidal propellers or these. Also it means that its limited to being used by drones since it faces perpendicularly to the flow of air so it cannot be used on a 'forward travelling' aircraft like a plane.

Totally bad a$$! Keep up the great work gentlemen, can't wait to see the next step in your design evolution.

Very exciting! This is the first thing I've seen that actually looks and feels like a flying car. Awesome.

Could the rotors act as wheels on the ground if rubber was added or if the blade structure was 3D printed similar to the new type of wheels that don't require tubes?

Well done! Great work.

when you fold up the prop, could you turn the cyclorotor like a tire so that it can run on the road as well?

Earned my sub cant wait to see the development

That’s really awesome team!

Fascinating. Had a question while I was watching - What emergency option would pilots of this kind of aircraft have during loss of power? Without wings in a conventional sense, I don't imagine gliding is possible. Are cyclo-rotors capable of some form of autorotation that would give them unpowered descent capabilities akin to a helicopter? If not, what would the general plan be for operators in the event that the motors failed? Thanks!

@viduraherath4008

@@user-jh6ik1qd7p Not really, if anything making drone based 'flying cars' is a terrible design choice in terms of energy efficiency. Forward travelling aircraft like planes are much more efficient as they use lift and forward motion to keep them in the air whereas you must be using a high rate of power from quad rotors to be able to move slowly. While yes, it makes sense for compact areas where short take off and landings are needed, in any range its better to use a car or train, or take a plane

Big hairdryer :), love it

With a speaker for each cage this could be entirely silent. The amount of electricity used for the speaker to silence each unit this could fly perfectly silently except for the sound of the downward thrust of air. Which will be gentle compared to the thrust off propeller blades. The only thing that would instantly take her down would be a small plastic bag. Anything blown up by the rotor could be injested and create immediate results. That is where the ripping shredding motion of a standard propeller would take precedence. The pilot could be made aware of this danger and any flying bits could be vectored away from the rotors.

Nice job, gentlemen!

What do you guys use to control all the vectoring of the flaps in each barrel?

Great, you can use this for vertical take off and landing, for traveling purpose gliding is far more efficient. By this technology now you can use your rotors as tyres

Наверняка большой расход энергии ... Но выглядит интересно.

Besides up and down can it move in other directions, how does it do this? I'm thinking by changing speeds of individual rotors? Also what happens when losing one or more rotors/blades can it auto rotate or glide to safety?

@grantballard4362

7 ай бұрын

That is the advantage of the cyclogyro concept. It changes pitch of each blade at different times in the overall revolution to instantly vector thrust along any direction in 360 degrees.

Would be interesting to know some of the specs on this type of rotor, like how much energy is required to make it perform . In what ways might it be better than traditional methods of flight. It's great to see new ideas explored , but are they more practical in every way to what we have now?

This is amazing, great work! Thanks for inventing the future - just work on the efficiency of the blades, so the sound can be more quite and maybe work with different textures on the blades, to get more drag and lift in general, this could improve the blades and the efficiency

Insane engendering....future plane are here...kudos🎉🎉

How much more power does it take. What happens if there is a problem with one or two of the rotors

@reddotclips3971

Working on magnus effect vehicle for senior design and cant tell you one rotor going outs gonna mean a crash and a hard one at that(hard dive to a corner and flip over). Also definitely requires more power than a standard prop plane of equivalent size bc the rotors have to provide the lift whereas a prop plane the forward motion creates a lift. What I'm curious to see here is how they achieve a somewhat efficient directional motion seeing as the rotors mostly just provide lift.

efficiency??? basically, if aerodynamics is not the main scope one can fly a door with a powerful power motor. Same goes for fancy blades like this one.

If by lose one spool you mean one motor on one rotor breaks, there's an easy way to mitigate that risk. Simply link the rotors together with axels to a single motor (or tandem motors for redundancy) and a drive shaft with a transfer case like an AWD car
