Flying Bottle / Bicopter with weight above CG Attached File  lemonAndPaeroa.uav   9.14K   16 downloads ,  also works for Bicopter Wing, just check servo directions


Will add more, but the above file works for most two servo/two motor setups where servo is used for yaw/pitch and motor differential is used for roll control

Great ! Thanks a lot Matt

Could this thread be stickied ?  (not sure if I'm clear) So Matt (and all of us )  could add all theses crazy mix  uav files.

I got a question : Where should we post about VTOL and such ? Here ? I've seen some Vtol (Gary's Ball mainly, and other one rotor design in the plane forum)

ok, I'll post my Vtol design there.

As far as I now understand the GCS flight configuration(and as Matt wrote to me), we can't switch channel(rudder/roll) with the CC board in the current state.

I will begin a module development to get this feature implemented, like the one Cass has done on Rcgroups with Mwii code.

I know I'm not alone looking for this, and good thing, another french speaking user is on it too.

Time to install the GCS and the dev tools on my linux PC.

Thanks K wells

Lebrett - will be cool to see that work, i was reading a post by leadfeather on how the multiwii code, based on an aux input changes mottors from roll to yaw during transition

yes , the logic and process are pretty simple.
The coding with openpilot requests more  work, we need to add the code in flight config and in the Gsc.

An easiest way could be (but I'm only discovering openpilot dev. atm) to only implement some more switch or conditional change in the custom and/or advanced menu of the gsc.

Successfull maiden for my first  Openpilot controled Vtail quad ! Very nice board !

I am using "Matt famous Vtail mix". Still some fine tunings to do......

I'll try to post some pictures tomorrow, but I'm a bit busy with the VI nations rugby tournament this week-end. (Great victory for the Wales versus England )

It's a pretty bloody elegant design mate, great yaw control without all the linkage issues and servo of a TriCopter. Just should have got a patent on it :)

The V-Tail world domination is close at hand, I feel it.

Thanks Dave :) i actually built a tricopter this weekend (its been a year since my original) and the yaw is not as solid as the vtail !
