I thought that I had seen some small R/C flying machines before but this one is smaller than all of them. The flight time is low, but then again where the heck would a bigger battery go?
The 2.7 grams Nanoflyer is by far the smallest and lightest electric powered
contra-rotating coaxial-rotor RC helicopter ever built. It is battery powered and it
uses the Proxflyer concept to give it inherent stability. It is built to test how small
helicopters that may use the passively stable Proxflyer rotor concept.Key specifications, components and materials used to build the small Nanoflyer:
Rotor: 85 mm (2 contra rotating 4-bladed rotors)
Carbon rod 0.3mm and 0.5 mm from WES-Technik
Aramid 30 g/m2 fabric from CSTAirframe: 80 mm long, 0.08 mm carbon plate, 0.3mm rod
Brass bearings 0.7 mm from DidelMotors (x2): 4 x 8 mm, 28 ohm from Didel Battery: 1 x 3.7 V, 20 mAh Kokam cell Control: 2 channels IR control with 2x ESC
Yaw control by differential speed of rotors
C.G. trimed forward for horizontal flight
2.7 grams (incl. battery and control)Weight: 2.7 grams (incl. battery and control) Flight time: Up to 1 minute, (0.5 minute continues)
when will you be selling these i love them and really want one to fly in the house since its to windy outside
[I wish I was selling these, but if you look on the Internet I bet you an find someone that is. -John]
