I love how the vectoring is also what counteracts the torque moment!
lol
Yes, exactly that, I was impressed too. I also wonder what mix of commands is commanding 4 vector servos for other tasks
Damn i didn't realize that
amazed with this too!
Never thought of that...thanks for pointing it out 👍
After 45 years of practicing this hobby I thought - I ve seen it all.. But i was wrong. Thats really amazing and deserves our full respect.. Well done .. Greetings from Switzerland
Hey man, you seem experienced! Are you on discord?
You should see another one, the true fully controllable single moving part monocopter
@@MrPilotStunts This concept is better- it can be adapted to transition into an efficient airplane if done properly. The monocopter can't.
@@JoeGator23 surely it's a whole different story. What you're describing is close to Pogo, except it was coaxial.
That is extremely impressive. (clap emoji)
Thanks! It means a lot to me!!
You know you can click winkey+period key to get an emoji search tool and you can just type clap and hit enter :)
@@SobboMonkeVR dude you just blew my mind, love new shortcuts haha
@@rcrc2340uwu
@@SobboMonkeVR genius thank you
You have no idea how useful this can become in any shape or form!
We used these in Iraq and Afghanistan, we called them "flying trash cans" or "flying grill". Also known as the T-Hawk UAV.
Example?
@@Masterpeace0_0 my personal fave. People make a big proclamation how something could change everything, then provide no examples :-P
@@Chimera_Photography considering this technology has been around for a while now, not sure what drastic change in our society one would expect from a youtube video of a toy.
This is phenomenal. I cannot believe this works so well. I mean how could it not though. It’s a piece of engineering art. Congrats on the build.
Wow!!! I’m soo amazed about all the good feedback! It’s just the beginning! I continue to experiment with it after Christmas and new year!
Appreciate all constructive feedback!
Thanks and stay tuned
I have been meaning to have a go at this for ages so thanks for all your work & inspiration to get going on this project.
Not having much luck with the piko BLX fc though... doesn't like my ESC 😒
@@simon8904 I’m currently working on “V2” and it goes in that way as you mentioned
@@michaelbruckner9092 Hey! I love this project! I'm currently designing one of my own but using a coaxial motor and thrust vectoring although, coding and general theory should be the same! do you know if this would work well with a diatone Mamba f-405 flight controller / ESC combo? thanks!
Did you use gyroscope?
1929 asboth oszkár built a similar helicopte rin hungary. and that was the first sucessfull helicopter.
ruclips.net/video/_c382hxGQVI/видео.html
This is actually genuis , compared to using 4 propellers
It definitely has its uses and its amazing.. but i suspect one with 4 or more fans is capable of flying if one fan fails. Though maybe its not that important.
One ESC, one motor... Far cheaper to build. And I think would get better flight times compared with four motors if the weight can be optimized. I have some nylon/carbon fiber PLA that I'm going to try out. Haven't printed with it yet so this should be fun.
Yes, only one propeller.
But, here there is 5 motor 🤔.
1 for propeller and 4 servo's for thrust vectoring and some sensors(like gyro and altitude).
Now tell, Will it be more efficient than the drone type Quadcopter?
Please answer.
Ever heard of helicopters?
@@akStefan the ones with one or two rotors ?
Thats really freakin' cool!
How did i miss this for 5 months!?
Didn't look up. Lol
An Imperial Probe Droid. It's a good bet the Empire knows we're here.
The genius of this slopped over into a subscription and like.
This is revolutionary! If one motor can perform as well as 4 then a gas motor that can run longer between stops and is just around the corner.
Very good design Micheal. I did aeronautical engineering most of my life and I had the impression that it would just topple over or be very unstable, but not at all; those stabilisers and the software work well. Patent this for sure ! Congratulations ! :-)
This is awesome, have you done any power and flight time comparisons?
FPV pilots get into the sauce, go down a rabbit-hole or two on the Internet, and now there's round sideways airplanes hovering around, all RGB'd up like it's a Millennial's Gaming PC.
And I freaking LOVE it! Great job slapping this together, I saw the comment from the designer and did some reading before posting. The most appealing part to me, as an FPV quad pilot, Arduino and 3D printer enthusiast, and guy who breaks stuff - is this is entirely off-the-shelf now. I think it was 10 years ago, or so, when I first saw a military drone concept using this type of vectored helicopter design, and now you can make the majority of the aircraft at home, and order the Rx, FC, servos and LiPo from Amazon.
(normally when I have 3 motors left off a blasted quad, I build FliteTest planes to repurpose the motors and ESC's. You win. So much win.)
Best video of something suspended from a string I ever watched
Wow! So stable!
This could be a revolution, man
pun intended?
@@DivinityIsPurity C'mon man :))))
A patio table and four air conditioning vents out if a 76 Toyota Celica. I love it. Genious,keep it up!
Only one word....
Respect 🙌
WOW! As I watch this I can't help but imagine Ingenuity flying around Mars. Amazing build bro!
Not sure this would be able to take off at all given the atmospheric density of Mars. That thrust vectoring system would be even more inefficient at controlling the aircraft because of that .
@@DL101ca No way this would fly on Mars. Just reminded me of Ingenuity.
I feel like this is about to totally change things....YOU ARE A GENIUS! Good job man, can not wait to see more.
Subbed and dingdonger dinged!
Damn, that's cool. It flies really well.
Ok, I could see this as a camera drone with a cage around the prop area. Would solve almost all of the "it can hurt someone" paranoia.
As the actual author, I am very pleased that you like my project so much. Nevertheless, I would have found it more pleasant to see the link to my original project here more clearly. I am very excited about V2 and your ideas.
For everyone else: if there are any questions about the original project, I'll be happy to talk to you on Hackaday.
@Michael Bruckner, please consider pinning this comment. Cheers and have a great day.
Can you say "Busted"?
How is rotational moment of the motor cancelled?
@@ravitejak4920 you angle the vanes slightly so there is a counter rotational torque created.
@@ravitejak4920 Thrust vector is the key. The blades are used to control the flow of air and handle the counter torque
That would be impressive alone with counter rotating props.... with only one prop = mind blown! Now I'm just curious of how many hours in PID tuning. Awesome job👍 instant SUB!
It's very similar in concept to a prop-hanging conventional aerobatic plane...
It's funny to me how simple the quadcopter really is, literally 4 moving parts. This video is awesome, the work is awesome, the design is awesome, the result is impressive, but it still adds complexity! This isn't a criticism of your work, more just praise for the elegance and simplicity of the quadcopter. I love seeing these variations on the design, though...keep it up!!!
Arguably this only has 5 moving parts/motors, and could be done with 4. There is a bit more supporting structure/frame here per moving part, and 4 of those motors don't contribute to thrust when compared to a standard quad
Impressive work! Looks like a star wars probe!!
This is so fucking clever.
Also like.... I love how this is basically just a flying ceiling fan.
this dude literally made a interior mechanism of UFO , imagine what military might have , btw its amazing !
Look up the RQ-16. Developed in 2006.
@@hoteltwonine5365 shhhh, don't tell him. He has not found Google yet. His mind will be blown when he does, albeit a tiny explosion, but blown nonetheless.🤣
Now just slap on a Noctua Fan and it would be completely silent lmao.
@@hoteltwonine5365 that was in 2006 , think about 2021 technology
Вертолёт ,,СТУПА"- БРАВИССИМО!!!
This was literally my master's thesis 25 years go. bravo! well done. very pleased to see it work for real.
This is amazing... why would ppl dislike this, I don't get the dislikes for such new impressive idea and test ....
U just blowed my mind this is an amazing thing coming from a beginner and it's inspiring because this is something that doesnt require a lot of money to build but also a fantastic robotic project :D
I'm not sure how the youtube algorithm picked this video for me but it will help me complete something I've been working on for a very long time and stuck on one particular thing.
This is awesome!
I am so exited to see some new concepts to this "hobby".
I was quite disapponted about the "development" of the drones. (Tricopter | Bicopter outdated | Quads become the standard...)
Keep up with the good work!
This is an awesome idea man huge props!
there is only one prop and it is not huge
@@nandakoryaaa1401 that's puntastic !
IMPRESSIVE! You solved the counter-torque problem using thrust vectoring.
Give that man a BELLS! True genius!
Im stunned! Thats a win!
Brilliant idea, saves on lots of blades and engines
Super cool project. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see if I can build one myself!!
Make sure u patent this design, this is pure gold
This is great. I'll say that at night it will gather a very large crowd and would wonder what that is up in the air.
It's a great Idea, Your design has a great possibility(Opportunity) for all of us.
Excellent work 😘❤️ from India 🇮🇳
Great idea- nothing gets broken in a crash.. Also, funny to think the heaviest part that the machine has to pickup is the power source!
clever way to thrust vectoring. very nice!
Wow, your ability to engineer such complex mechanism and makes it fly is amazing, I'm also a scratch builder and I'veany of my very own design, I love original concept and desing the way I do it. Tnx
Bravo!!! Never have seen something like it. Can hardly belive, vhat I have seen. Great, man:)))
A flying table.
Genius! 😏
We used these in Iraq and Afghanistan, we called them "flying trash cans" or "flying grill". Also known as the T-Hawk UAV.
Hell yeah!! I think you need to patent that ASAP !!
What an ingenious solution! Thanks for sharing ☺️
That looks sick, good luck with your channel growing
Very elegant solution!!!
Looks safer,simpler and more efficient.
Really cool I like every step in reduction and simplification. Great job Michael and Bejamin !!! Next reduction step is to only have 3 vector servos... easy to say... but to do... keep going so great to see always things improving Thank you for your great work ;-)
That battery looked huge but reading the specs I reckon the whole thing is pretty small particularly just one 2306 motor. Very nice work!
amazing, the balancing system work very well
Very impressed with how good it works.
I was expecting it to lift and flip over or start turning on it's own axis.
If this works this well, a closed hall would help even more.
Great job.
Steering with thrust vectoring, easy. Countering torque, even easier. Doing both is very impressive, and could be a game-changer!
Amazing!! Great innovation bro!
no way... dude this is amazing ngl
My man, you just inspired a few of us to think outside the box. Keep pushing! We all have a good feeling about this.
Hunny?
Yes Dear?
Do you know what happend to that Tea Table my godmother gave to us for our wedding anniversary?
this is genius!!! I would thing that battery on the bottom would increase your stability by a lot. also, closing out the a duct for air flowing from the 1 prop splitting into 4 outlets with the vectors systems. With the ducts you would be able to spread the 4 exits far apart and make room for a central low deck battery compartment.
Really amazing
surprisingly good. that's an idea worth developing imo.
It looks like a really nice lightweight design.
this is a next level idea to flying saucer
Amazing. Same performance, 75% fewer rotors. Keep it up!
Muito bom! Um ótimo experimento para quem quiser "aprender a voar"! Parabéns!!!
i've buld a similar concept some years ago, but i had problem with the electronics, my compliment for the achievement!
Very clean design. Impressive
Nice!
A great concept.
Just like the V-2 rocket.
How lovely, a flying tea table! No really this is simplicity in shere beauty. I love it, keep doing things like this.
We used these in Iraq and Afghanistan, we called them "flying trash cans" or "flying grill". Also known as the T-Hawk UAV.
Looks kinda sacry top heavy. I marvel at the code you wrote. Really top notch
This could be the future for delivery drones
As much as I appreciate this design, it is unlikely to be used for cargo of some volume: additional weight on top nedds to be well balanced, and voluminous boxes will not work, as they will disturb the thrust / air flow, no matter if down or on top. So only small cargo mounted on the down side will work.
Multicopters are a better basis for transporting stuff.
that was impressive. Thanks for sharing your invention, a first of its kind that I can recall seeing.
This is thinking out of the box!
Great Idea and good implementation it seems really stable and maneuverable! Good Work
Good gracious. Michael if you built and developed this yourself, then you are a genius. I can hardly believe how stable the monocopter is.
I suggest an all-metal version with the thrust vectors doubling as a barbecue grill.
Now seriously: very impressive how stable that thing is!
It would be very cool to make a model airplane with a pusher-prop that uses the same principle of 3d thrust vectoring. It might be a nice challenge to get this to work without any other aerodynamic control surfaces (=no ailerons/elevator/rudder).

some1 give this man a contract
It's very safe too! The propeller is not fully exposed.
Nice use of an almost Falcon 9 like grid fins but o the inside. Although it has only one motor, It's now prone to servo failures with so many more parts, but what a cool design. Regardless of the outcome we need people like you trying new things, F the haters dude.
What a great project with impressive results. Congratulations. This will likely become something even greater.
Huh, never thought of doing it this way. With a single propeller of larger diameter (1 meter) you can increase the efficiency significantly. Good job
I’m impressed. Space x grid fin vibes 🤟🏼
I have flown a quad copter and they are as tricky to handle as a helicopter. So I can well imagine what a juggling act it was to keep this thing flying. I'm very happy to see that it's working for you!
Flying coffee table! Seriously though, very nice 👍
Nowww... This is incredible 🙌... an another level of innovation ..opp..
Amazing little thing. Very nippy and fast 4 a monocopter
This will revolutionize whole drone system
wonderful mate
Not really. We used these in Iraq and Afghanistan, we called them "flying trash cans" or "flying grill". Also known as the T-Hawk UAV.
The next transportation human💪
good work was dreaming that in jear 1990... As 10jear kid now actualy fling fpv fels aciving my dreams
👏 very creatives. That’s seem to be more efficient and effective then the quads. Less rotating mass, single rotors vs multiples. Only issue is the turning speed. Please keep us updated. Thank you for the great content
You should print a Ghost pod for it then it would look like a flying Ghost lmfao 🤣😂
What a great idea! 😂
😂😂😂
Noiceeeeee
Very interesting. Good job on the build - looks like it flies very well and remains stable. 👍
That is brilliant. Well done.
Inspired design . Huge potential !
What a brilliant idea and implementation. Absolutely love this !
This is fascinating to me. Very cool! 👍
