Auto Credit Based on FauxRealest's DIY Drone
HOLD YAW FOR FLYING SAUCER MODE
Front - Green
Back - Red
Will angle forward automatically
Camera 1 - RC mode
Normal drones have computers which counteract the spin force. SimplePlanes does not.
This makes flying this drone difficult to master, but fun when you do
WARNING - Do NOT mirror this aircraft, the rotors are individually set.
My attempt at a quad-copter Drone
Roll/pitch are all controlled by propeller pitch, which is much more complicated then I could have ever expected.
Yaw is controlled by VTOL. future versions will be rotor-only drones.
Any comments/ratings/suggestions always appreciated and returned!

5,093 FauxRealestHa, thanks for the rating @meawk :p @Thelady I used contradicting propeller pitch forces. The top provides constant lift, while the bottom props provide less lift when pitch is applied. Thanks for the rating!8.7 years ago
