V22 Testing
🕑 Added 2022-09-28 10:38:29 +0000 UTCI'm in the process of building another VTOL, but this time it's going to be a scale V22 Osprey with swashplateless helicopter rotor heads (one of these on each wingtip https://youtu.be/d80oXSCcHTk). I believe it's the first time a swashplateless rotor head had been built with 3 blades and it works surprisingly well. Only issue is currently the frame/wing spar has a resonant frequency which is very similar to the rotor head RPM, so I've had to add some strengthening spars. I've ordered a larger diameter spar to hopefully reduce the flex and then it'll be time to build a scale fuselage around it!

wow, you put some effort into filming that! I think I understand it all without a single spoken word!
