DESIGN: AeroVantage ~ Control (Flight & Power) - Logic - 1x2 - Overview

Flight and Power ~ since both are to be electric.

General information; much of which to be moved to lower detail pages as this section grows.

Overview:

Electronic Mixer Box:

Note that the following axes are applicable to the proprotor. When the proprotor has its axis of rotation vertical, i.e. as a rotor, the proprotor's axes coincide with those of the craft. The Z-axis is the rotor/motor's axis of rotation. The Y-axis axis is the one that the proprotor & motors transition about (lateral axis). The X-axis is the longitudinal axis.

NOTE that there is no autorotation.

Thoughts re Airplane Flight Controls:

Notes:

A lateral (X-axis) knuckle joint may likely be required for the front proprotor , but not necessarily for the rear proprotor because it has the rudder located in the slipstream.

In hover the control will be somewhat similar to that of a tandem helicopter, OTHER: Flight Dynamics - Control (Response). One difference is that the PropRotors will be extremely rigid for fast response.

Airplane control surfaces will compliment the PropRotor control and will serve as duplicity for safety. Look into further

Spider:

Consider shaping the props cone so that it aerodynamically screws the free airflow into cooling the motor.
