Big guinea pig

[zerotyme]

If I am using differential thrust do I need to reverse one motor and add a pusher prop?

 

[HawkMan]

no. it wouln'd tbe a pusher prop anyway.

you only reverse one motor to counter torque, usually it's not going to be enough of a big for it to matter and the hassle of getting reverse props isn't worth it for not having a little bit of trim.

 

[zerotyme]

Ok, so just reverse one motor and have to standard props. It doesn't matter with motor, right?

 

[zerotyme]

Two standard props*

Nope. two standard props, two motors spinning the same way.

If you switch props *or* switch motor direction without changing both you'll find one motor blows backwards . . . which will give you an amazing differential thrust, but this is a guinea pig you're building, not a whirly bird

I'm using the graupner mz18. In the build video they said the files for the radio would be available for down load soon. Where do I find them?

IDK but diff thrust is just one motor slowing down and the other spins up faster. You are not reversing motor direction

Does he just mean counter rotating?
