Before anyone gets too excited, [Tom] isn’t building drones for use in a vacuum ... a centrally located duct providing the lift and the yaw control. Flanking that is a triangular frame ...

Three propellers on a drone is a rare sight ... The layout of a trirotor, showing the yaw servo axis in green. Toglefritz [CC BY-NC-SA] Where three-rotor craft come into their own though is ...

A novel yaw compensation mapping (YCM) ensures stability near singularities. The system was tested on two FPV drone models, using known maps and onboard autonomy for planning, localization ...

Fixed-wing drones offer higher efficiency but lack versatility in confined spaces. Inspired by samara seeds, monocopters rotate around their yaw axis, providing efficient lift. They’re being ...
