  • Wait. So a VTOL is a aircraft that can rotate the propellers to hover and go forward? plz reply

  • @cornybuddy technicly it stands for Vertical Take Off and Landing

    I guess a helicopter also qualifies too?

  • How long did it take from mark 1 till now

  • @wkjms about 8 months. If I sat down did all the reserch and built all the prototypes and did this for 8 hours a day... it could be done in about a week.

    this VTOL is about the 5th one i've built

  • hahaha i love it! . now lets make a indoor version... lol i like how simple the design looks though it doesnt look weird or crapy like alot of the other Vtol aircrafts.! nice work. or and for the wings what you could try instead of servos is electric retratable landing gear... thatly give it a stronger hold.. just a thought but ur the one who built it first so im guessing ur smarter lol

  • @hotblume not at all! the electric retract thing is a great idea, I was actually contemplating using one to control the tilt... but I dont have any XD

see all

  • Peter, get your hummingbird x-19 to the market.  It's the best VTOL design in the planet!

  • Nice! Working on basically the same thing! What motors are you using? What is the total weight of the plane? Did you try to do just motor tilt and didn't work well or did you only try the full wing tilt?

  • Congratulations. You have done for a few bucks what the US military does for billions!

  • Nice work! Brilliant design and a great transition too. I'm curious, do the flybars have any effect on the aircraft's handling in forward flight? - Cheers

  • Thats a tilt-wing, not a tilt-rotor. if it was a Tilt Rotor then only the rotors would move, like the Osprey

  • Haha, now I know who you are :D I thought this Vid was awesome the first time I saw it.

  • That's 3 kinds of cool!!!

  • wow! congratultions its great
