Where would the servo arms be connected to control the collective and cyclic pitch? What about a tandem dual rotor helicopter design like the CH-46 and CH-47, but with rotors mounted like the Avatar Aerospatiale SA-2 Samson...or the Kai Yin KY-Z2...
It's hard to see in my video, but I modeled the pilot valves on the hydraulic actuators. This would be the connection point for the flight controls. I had never heard of the KYZ2, but I expect this drone has very poor pitch controllability. Full-scale aircraft, that use this configuration (swashplate-less tilt motors) need a lift fan for low speed control of pitch. It doesn't appear this drone has any means to control pitch, so it's probably only flyable at a single center of gravity, and even then... Wouldn't be able to respond to a pitch upset.
@@bzig4929 Right. The KY-Z2 uses fixed-pitch propellers...quadcopter props. It has 2 servos that tilt the rotors along the pitch axis. It does tend to "swing", which I suspect why very few have mounted FPV cameras...swinging makes it hard to fly FPV, is my guess. The hope was that a traditional helicopter propeller setup might lessen this issue.
makes the helicopters that land near me so much more fascinating. neat how that works! thanks for putting all these really detailed videos together.
KMAXX helis were landing at my local strip during fire season. Love them
Sir you are very genus person
Nice music choice.
Great, thank you my friend. May I ask what software was used to create this scene?
Autodesk Fusion for modeling the parts. Blender for the animation.
Very Nich Thanks

А соосную схему покажете?
Wanna see a video about the K-max
