I designed a 9m2 Kite and analysed the different states of flight equilibrium. You are in the right direction! Congratulations, i hope the best for your future developments!
woah, Its really good, this is a major step forward as people have said. As mentioned thats 8 channels, thats difficult to fly, It would make sense that the 4 sweep channels would be controlled by a gyro while the other 4 channels (rudder, left/right aileron, rudder, elevator) be controlled by a human. The additon of sweeps may lower durability of the aircraft during landings and crashes while the
Довольно эффективно для малой авиации и только для дозвуковых скоростей. Представляю, как будут кувыркаться пассажиры в салоне, когда для преодоления турбулентности пилотам придётся выполнять фигуры высшего пилотажа😂
Not entirely. Morphing structures get expensive and hard to maintain at large scales, and making big structures like the wings morph gets expensive. We might see tail-morphing planes that can make themselves pitch unstable for more efficient takeoff, maybe the outer wings can use twist morphing, but I wouldn't expect to see a completely bird-like morphing airliner. The upper limit is probably around the size of 1- or 2-seater planes, and the design makes more sense for things like package delivery drones.
Birds fly slow relative to man made machines, so this would only be applicable for slow flight like surveillance and military drones for getting close up without being detected
this is a really good idea, but in my opinion, this drone is more complicated and harder to fly than regular drones. So why not just use a simple, easy to fly and build drone?
Problem is that birds control flight without a vertical tail. They utelise a high twist though the wingspan (around 12°) to achieve a vortex shedding at the 2/3 point out from the centenline. This creates proverse yaw when entering cornes. Not as traditional flightsurfaces, that produce adverse yaw thus youd need the vertical tail to counteract. The whole control sceme of your dron is wrong and based on a human aproach not a reality based one.
I admire what theyre doing, but I do wish theyed ditch the vertical stabs. Nature has proven they dont need them and if they ditch them and accomplish stable flight then theyll be really accomplishing something.
@@iamscoutstfuNature doesn’t use props. The propeller produces several turning tendencies that mostly leave a left yawing motion that the drone needs to correct. For this reason, I’d bet that they need some extra control over the vertical axis unless they want to make a contra rotating or a dual motor setup
nah man, these people have a great approach to improving ornithopters. by focusing on one aspect of biomimicry they can get a working model up and running and start gathering data and making improvements quickly. A propeller and vertical tail is proven tech with well defined behavior allowing them to develop their novel independent feather control system without having to develop a wing flapping propulsion scheme at the same time. also this drone does seem to be flying in reality, and i cant seem to find yours anywhere
I think I've just discovered a gap in the market that will make me rich, very rich! I'm going to sell sticks! ... because somehow every “advanced whatever” seems to have a need for them!
Finally can build and ride those giant eagles from Lord of the Rings
This is awesome.
As a glider pilot I’ve always been in awe of birds.

Pretty amazing. Glad I didn't skip on this video.
This is extremely nice. Good work.
damn... a whole lot is gonna change in drone warfare and recon!
Wow! I’m amazed the way is able to adjust itself so quickly to maintain it’s stationary (airborne) position.
thank you for your research, this is amazing for intelligence drones
A major step forward.
I was just thinking about this a few days ago. The You Tube algorithm really does guess well sometimes.
The algorithm was even faster with me because I hadn't had the time to think of it before the video showed up.
Is it compatible with a spektrum NX10?
Awesome for autonomous flight ...more efficiency...

Incredible, what type of actuators were used?
0:07 i realize the design still need rudder while real bird dont
Thank's for sharing.
Wow that's amazing.
Would love to see a flock of these used to turn an airborne wind energy system
Excellent work!
So at the end pigeons are government stated drones.
Great and well-executed idea.
Increase efficiency? Or fixing the intrinsic inefficiency?
Wow this is really cool!!
Наконец-то первоиспытатели могут спать спокойно, они не ошиблись - оно действительно летает.
Tell me more...
1:04 mmmmh yes „stable“😂
They cut the video just before it spins out lol

parabens!
amazing!
bro this is soooo cool , no shit
Will our airlines feature planes like this in the future?
I doubt it - looks very uncomfortable from a pax viewpoint - but specialized operators like inspection, construction etc

Vertical tails are for the birds is what you're saying right? Such irony.
@@po1ly414 they could use a contra rotating propellor, or jusst 2 propellors. However I think this will make it less efficient, or too complicated

Is word bayesian pronounced like that? I always pronounced it "bah-yea-sian"
It roots from the surname "Bayes", if that helps
I could be doing this instead of working.

remove vertical tail
birds aren't real
And this video is proof that even commoners can build fake birds not as good as the government ones though
