Couple weeks ago I`ve been testing 3D Printed 6 inch propellers.
This was a technology demonstrator. The pitch is "whatever" - but close to 6" or more.
Which one is faster? Gemfan 6x6 (fligth starts at 2:07) or 3DPrinted 6x?? (fligth starts at 8:46)
I feel the 3D Printed set was considerably faster. It definitely drains much more power - approx 10A per motor vs Gemfan 8A per motor.
More iterations to come: CW/CCW, folding, 3/4 6 bladed designs etc.
What are your thoughts on this - let me know in the comments section below.
Nate took the brains out of this RC plane! We hope it still flies! The ZOHD isn`t the newest plane, but it was an extremely modular build. So easy! Enjoy this scary maiden and be sure to subscribe...
Ok, so I am going to take one last jaunt into the 3D printing arena here in association with Eclipson Airplanes regarding finding the best material to print your aircraft
This article describes my building plan and steps. I've got many requests to declare the PDF Plan after sharing my images. I have made 2 units of this design and the first one flew good. ...
