Well if that quad weights about 400g and is going at around 40m/s (about 145km/h or 90mph) Gives a kinetic energy of 320j that's about the same energy as a .38 Special or about half the of the maximum measured energy of a horse kick.
All alternatively you could have the prop mounted in such a way that its force goes through the center of the drone, then you wouldn't have the offbalance at least
Yeah like a Wah pedal or a sewing machine. You use your feet when you fly a real helicopter, so this is actually a spot on idea. Yours was too BergerMan ; )
If you use two counter rotating motors you could counteract the roll torque moment the one motor causes. As far as the pitch moment created, the mount for the motor could be lowered to be more in line with the center of mass, but that might be a little more impractical. Loving all the fun ideas!
This is *amazing*. This is my favourite type of video - a clever idea that basically anyone could do if they had that idea, but that results in much laughter among all of them. Reminds me of the "third person footrace" one.
Excellent idea ! One suggestion: You can tune the 5th motor to turn on at above 50% throttle. That way it will work more efficiently and help increase the speed more at straight line / higher throttle
"With the dji system i can change my rates right in the goggle." Pretty sure that's been doable for years before dji digital system. And i would love to see van rock up at a race sporting the dji goggles for a "nicer experience" haha
@@stinkerton but can you change the rates from inside the analogue goggles on the screens without a computer? He even stated you would normally need to hook it up to a laptop if your out in the field. Which is just not true!
You've got to remember. RR don't aim there content at us, the guys that have been in the hobby for quite some time. Especially where shilling is concerned thats for sure. We aren't their main audience.
I dont know if you guys are gonna read this, but I just wanted to say that I love this direction that rotor riot is going!!! I think the focus on building, wild experimentation, and exploring the niches of what can be done for drones is far more entertaining and captivating than going over various freestyle tricks, compilations, or product reviews. The amount of potential behind what can be done with spinning motors excites me and I hope that you guys bring it further in this direction!!!
Could even have crazy yaw authority using thrust differential maybe help with turning Edit: Should have each one turning to the outside so the torque difference when using thrust difference actually helps with the turn too Be even crazier if you could get it going fast enough forward to auto rotate the quad drone gyro Put 4 motors on the back the battery in the front for balance get some up and down to have reversible props on all 8 motors need a cyborg to fly it 😆 Have fun tuning that thing 😆🥴😖 Prop hangs and stands inverted craziness
Wanna see how to set up the servo channel output to do this yourself? th-cam.com/video/jiD6aC0l1VQ/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=JoshuaBardwell I think part of the problem is that the motor isn't pushing through the CG of the quad, so it is imparting a net-torque which the motors must overcome.
Totally agree... And maybe a way to overcome the abruptness of the turbo turning on and off would be to somehow just directly take throttle input to the "auxiliary" engine from the Pitch angle, which would enable hovering and would not require pilot to activate anything during the course... I definitely like this build ALOT !
Agreed. They may as well keep rotating that motor past the cam angle until its the same as the other 4 and just have 5 motors' thrust, unbalanced though
Joshua Bardwell could the switch channel be mixed with the throttle to come on during mid and full instead of having a separate switch? Or will it be too difficult to fly normally?
that isn't rebar. It is just a lightweight aluminum bar. You can bend it with your knee especially at that length. No way you can bend rebar (the type of bar that goes in concrete).
That was freaking crazily insane!!! Good job Sean for built the turbo with 5th motor for turbo speed! That was super fun to watch and I can't believed this bike could bent and cracked the pipe of the gate!! 😯😯 I was shocked and it only got broken stack! The frame is truly strongest! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Good job for caption over for flying good job! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 And thanks drew for taking videotaped! 👊🏼 Good job guys! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
What about placing a momentary switch under the remote, hold down with ring finger to boost, might be easier than toggling a 3 way switch. Had a smile on my face the whole time, good fun video gents.
map the back motor in relation to turning so when you do slight changes in turning the back motor spins a little slower, and if you turn really hard, the back motor stops.
Amazing work! 🤔 If it's a distraction to flip the 5th motor on and off, how about mapping the enabling of the motor to a switch but mapping the power output of the fifth motor to the combined stick inputs? - If you're zero'd out on pitch and punch the throttle, your 5th motor power is null. - If you pitch forward and punch throttle, the pitch/throttle combination pushes the 5th motor power curve to max. - As you dial in roll and yaw, even with pitch and throttle high, the 5th motor is dialed back down. This kind of setup should allow you to control the pusher motor output variably, maintaining control in curves, having max boost in straights and being able to hover in a stable manner. Would be a bit of tuning but once you get the curves mapped out, this should be pretty cool! :D
Yo!! Y'all are crazy nice. I'm a RC car guy. I use servo mixing to add brake when I turn the wheel of my RC truck. Mix the turbo motor with the throttle stick position. Use the switch to toggle the turbo on or off. More throttle, more turbo... Less throttle, less turbo for the turns. Wire the fifth motor in series with the others for thrust. The current stays the same. That should do it. Hope that helps and Good luck!
Also after giving it some thought you could solve the counterrotating problem by replacing the boost motor with a rocket engine. Something with like a 6 second burn would be interesting
You need to make sure that the thrust vector of the 5th motor points through the centre of mass. Then it won't induce any torque on the quad that would need to be compensated.
On 30th December 2020 at 10:00 AM, I had the idea to add a propeller at the back of a quad, at 8:00 PM, I discovered this video, and it works pretty well ! Well done guys, and good position of the push vector going through the gravity center. Next improvement can be to put 2 propellers running in opposite (cw ccw) to avoid torque effect and power consumption to compensate it.
Could you please do a detailed description of how you hooked up the ESC to another Channel. I watched the video when Joshua showed you how but it didn't make sense. Thanks
Great video guys! Loved it! (I know this is a new comment on an older video, but...) You might try finding the Center of Gravity of the drone, then align the thrust vector of the Turbo motor through the CG at the angle of the camera. This most likely would require a redesign of the Turbo Motor mounting brackets.
Hey, guys. Please correct me if I am wrong, but I remember on Taranis it is something like concept of "inputs" and "outputs" and you can direct your inputs into outputs in any way including fancy formulas. So what can be done about the fifth motor is: you take "throttle" input and direct it to "5th motor output" with -0.5 (so it kicks in only when throttle reach 50%) and x2 multiplier afterwards (so it can reach full throttle as well).
The extra motor is to far in the back, the thrust is now above the center of mass. if you position the extra motor more in the middle I think it would be more stable. And hell yeah would I like to see another episode
As long as the thrust points towards the center of mass, the force itself shouldn't impact the quadcopter, except on turns. The rear prop causes a torque as well as a directional force, which messes with the flight controller stability. The quad is also torqued while the motor is spinning.
I build one of these years ago on a ZMR 250 frame. We were still using CPPM back then so I had the thruster wired directly to a spare channel bypassing the FC completely and has it controlled by a slider. Flew really well and very flat as there was no angle on the motor.
Yep, same way I setup my Foxtech Screamer pentacopter. Throttle for the rear motor directly off the Rx. They just didn't have that option using the DJI gear for control.
Cool. In addition to the center of gravity / center of thrust that Joshua wrote, don't forget it has a significant reaction torque too. It constantly tries to twist the quad along the turbo rotor axis when on. This effect might be especially strong when turning on/off turbo mode (when the turbo prop changes rpm fast). The FC might have hard times with this, and could degrade handling in general. Try using two counter rotating turbo propellers to cancel-out this effect. :)
Man, man, how fast that goes. I've never seen this before. But it also happens quickly when things go wrong. With an acceleration sensor you could measure the acceleration, and then adjust the angle of the turbo propeller with an extra servo. I hope that with this idea I can contribute to the solution of the problem. Keep it up.
Nice job, looks awesome. Perfectly tuned to stay under 100mph. Think you could program BF to turn on boost at certain throttle positions and timing? I know the first part is possible, but I imagine timing needs to be added in along with mixing, so it doesn't just turn on during quick turns and other undesirable times. Also, I may have missed it but I imagine air mode was on, but was it for that motor? If not or if so, a minimum throttle is likely needed to prevent drag and the propellers acting like small sails
CRAZY IDEA 💡 SHAWN !!!!!! How’s it going brotha ? I’m still rocking the Nazgul 5 GoPro 7 mount you made me !!! Awesome protection!!! Question: Isn’t there some way to make the turbo motor have proportional throttle with the pitch axis? Say 1% pitch 1% throttle 2 % pitch 2% throttle 3% pitch 3% throttle and so forth ??????? I understand the Gyro would be the main problem there but maybe there’s someway to re-map or repurpose . God it’s like itching at my brain like it’s got to be doable !!!!
Bind the turbo motor with throttle position, and activate it with a second kill (arm) switch, that way you can fly with stand then activate the turbo motor mid fly, and control the output of the turbo with the analog position of the throttle!
Hahaha this was so cool! I love how it had you guys cracking up laughing 😂 And "Vanover the fastest real drone pilot in the world. Just dont give him a SIM" was perfect! Lol
I just wanted to add, that was amazing, but you need to add one of those turning knobs on the throttle stick to control the turbo motor. this should be revisited. also, it was flying on 0 throttle cause of the autogiro effect. that is when a spinning propeller horizontally is pushed forward and the air resistance makes it spin and act like a wing.
The booster would need to have a yaw and pitch function for it to work, and even then, the momentum would be carried a lot further making it harder to do sharp turns and flips. Boosters are good for moving straight. That’s about it.
Awesome shawn great build a little tweaking with the throttle input on turbo. Who knows could be the next thing in racing. I'm pretty sure you can sell some! Probably out to sell in package full of replacement parts. 🤣 THAT'S SOME CRAZY SHIT ☠️
I am new to drones but I think this Idea might help ...Integrate the turbo with a sideways swing mechanism to kind of boost it in the opposite direction of turn and the back end will turn pretty better and also don't need to flip the switches .Just an idea
![ILLSLICK - WINTER IS COMING [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/dwTMeM1zIhQ/mqdefault.jpg)
Would like to see it integrated into the throttle somehow making it easier for him to apply smoothly
or mounted on a servo so it always pushed foward
This could be done easily with logic switches in opentx
I used a side slider on a horus x10s controller to do just that :)
Sup matt!!! Didn't knew u were into miniquads!
You can add it to the motor mixer for forward pitch.
Getting Shaun (lets fly RC) to join the rotor riot team was a good decision. His ideas for videos have def boosted entertainment for rotor riot a lot. It’s fun to watch these hehe
Man, seeing how that quad sheared right through a metal post makes you realize that shit is dangerous.
That’s why we have insurance with the AMA. lol
Well if that quad weights about 400g and is going at around 40m/s (about 145km/h or 90mph) Gives a kinetic energy of 320j that's about the same energy as a .38 Special or about half the of the maximum measured energy of a horse kick.
The torque is throwing the entire thing off. You should get some counter rotating 3' motors and use that as the "turbo".
Also my thoughts!
I think this could help. double-turbo is better than single-turbo ;)
Get some of those crazy Nazgul 3061 props for it.
making sure the thrust vector goes through the cg would probably help a lot
All alternatively you could have the prop mounted in such a way that its force goes through the center of the drone, then you wouldn't have the offbalance at least
Rather than flip on switch, make a pedal switch. The best will be with potentiometer, just like accelerator pedal.
Another one, lol. I just wrote this then scroll down and see a couple of you beat me to it ✌️
Yeah like a Wah pedal or a sewing machine. You use your feet when you fly a real helicopter, so this is actually a spot on idea. Yours was too BergerMan ; )
Good idea! You can buy guitar volume or expression pedals for cheap.
Or use switch and integrating with throttle
Isn't implementing it to the Throttle the better way?
If you use two counter rotating motors you could counteract the roll torque moment the one motor causes. As far as the pitch moment created, the mount for the motor could be lowered to be more in line with the center of mass, but that might be a little more impractical. Loving all the fun ideas!

Mad props cuz of the quad has an extra prop?
that counts as a slick cut?

Yes! Please revisit this in the future!
should have used a double motor on the back/bottom to even out the rotational force, it might have made it a smoother flight.
Omg yeah wasn't thinking about that and that would be insane
Could even have crazy yaw authority using thrust differential maybe help with turning
Edit: Should have each one turning to the outside so the torque difference when using thrust difference actually helps with the turn too

As long as the thrust points towards the center of mass, the force itself shouldn't impact the quadcopter, except on turns. The rear prop causes a torque as well as a directional force, which messes with the flight controller stability. The quad is also torqued while the motor is spinning.
That was fun to watch.

Man, man, how fast that goes. I've never seen this before. But it also happens quickly when things go wrong.
With an acceleration sensor you could measure the acceleration, and then adjust the angle of the turbo propeller with an extra servo.
I hope that with this idea I can contribute to the solution of the problem.

How’s it going brotha ? I’m still rocking the Nazgul 5 GoPro 7 mount you made me !!! Awesome protection!!!
Question: Isn’t there some way to make the turbo motor have proportional throttle with the pitch axis? Say 1% pitch 1% throttle 2 % pitch 2% throttle 3% pitch 3% throttle and so forth ???????

NO DOUBT MAKE IT HAPPEN
Counter rotating props x 3d 32-bit esc, BF mapping to throttle and turns(momentum[s]) and a toggle to boot. Live leveling the mount via servo.
Bind the turbo motor with throttle position, and activate it with a second kill (arm) switch, that way you can fly with stand then activate the turbo motor mid fly, and control the output of the turbo with the analog position of the throttle!
Hahaha this was so cool! I love how it had you guys cracking up laughing 😂 And "Vanover the fastest real drone pilot in the world. Just dont give him a SIM" was perfect! Lol
Integrated throttle is a great idea and maybe have the pusher motor gimbal left and right with yaw inputs to help smooth out cornering.
Momentary switch might be better for ease of use so it’s on while you hold it and of when not. Idk but great video. I was lmao!

I think you should try to integrate a foot pedal for boost so you can control it separately 😄 crazy video guys! Loved it
