Gyroscope powered prop

66.7k PPLLAANNEE  3.4 years ago

Some gyroscope powered propellers I made.

Description

The car isn't the main focus of the build, the propellers are. The propellers don't spin fast enough to be used for flight unless you make some really slow and light glider. If you do make it a successor. If you want to save as sub-assembly grab the orange part and save it. If you do put it on a plane don't bank the plane too hard while throttled up.

Controls

Throttle to turn the blades
VTOL up to pitch the blades forward
VTOL down to pitch the blades back
