Electrotor-SloMo ~ Control - Flight

 

Overview:

Cyclic:- An objective is to have Absolutely Rigid Rotors, where the blades have their torsional rigidity relaxed slightly so that the downward force on the rotor that is applied by the pilot at a specific azimuth will result in a proportional reduction in the pitch of the blades when in the vicinity of that azimuth. This particular idea may not work.

Collective:- The objective is to have Absolutely Rigid Rotors, which have the ability for a small amount of collective blade pitch change, so that an increase in rotational torque (increase in power) will result in a proportional increase in the pitch of all the blades.

Yaw:- The objective is to have opposed longitudinal tilt of the two rotors; if the specific rotor configuration will safely allow it. For other configurations a rudder, or some other means of creating yaw may be required.
