As an experiment, [KendinYap], wanted to see if he could combine 3 small DC motors into a usable RC aircraft motor, effectively creating an electric radial engine. The assembly consists of three ...

Unleash the process of crafting a robust gear motor for RC airplanes with this DIY guide. This project takes you through each step of designing and building a motor that delivers the power and ...

Explore an innovative experiment where an RC airplane is powered using a repurposed hard drive motor. With careful assembly and precision engineering, this build tests the limits of lightweight ...

Small brushless motors and LiPo batteries are one of the most impressive bits of technology popularized in recent years. Just a few years ago, RC aircraft were powered by either anemic brushed ...

No props, no jets, no rockets – California's Spencer Lisenby just broke the world speed record for remote controlled aircraft, taking an unpowered RC glider transonic at 548 mph (882 km/h ...

The first-person view during final approach at 14:00 shows how susceptible these large RC aircraft are to crosswinds. Next we have a Kalinin K-7 with seven working motors (six forward-facing ...

So, unlike the single, or double, axis prop-rotor tail-sitters such as the following: - NASA's Puffin vertical take-off and landing tail sitter aircraft concept. - 11-year-old Aeronautics Tail ...
